Hi @emily98 ,
I’ve never been a religious person either, though am spiritual, I believe in fate, & that our loved ones can send us messages.
Recently I have had a few dreams of my mom, I believe she is trying to warn me about something, last week I dreamt I walked into our sitting room, the room was decorated with Christmas decorations, sparkly streamers & tinsel, but there were black ones amongst them, & mom was sat on the sofa, talking to me, I can’t remember what she said, but she sounded like normal, but I felt she was talking to me.
Earlier this week, I dreamt I was getting married, but the weird thing is, I was dressed in my old school uniform, black jumper, black trousers, & smart black shoes, & a white shirt, I’d chosen to walk to the church, & mom was standing just up the steps waiting for me, also dressed in black, all the guests were walking into the church, but outside there was a funeral being performed in the graveyard, it was at that moment I looked at what I was wearing & thought, “I can’t get married in this,” I ran out of the church, looking for somewhere near by where I could quickly buy a dress & change, with mom following me, as luck would have it, I found one just as it was closing, & a gorgeous blue dress in the window, I quickly explained to the woman, I was getting married, could I buy the blue dress in the window, she said ok, got the dress for me, but when I pulled out my purse to pay for it, I found I had foreign notes, they were green & red, I don’t know where they were from, but in the dream I thought they were Mongolian, but gladly I found some of the right money, that’s where I woke up, I sense mom might of been warning me of a death.
I saw my husband a few weeks after he died. And then a week after I felt him get into bed with me . The mattress dipped and I was petrified until he put his arm over me and I felt his beard in my neck. I don’t know if I imagined it all or not. I told one of my sons who just said don’t overthink it just take it and be comforted.
I read a book after that called Signs by Laura lynne Jackson. It came up on Amazon unexpectedly , a sign? and I bought it. I feel I don’t need to delve any further than that. I’ve never asked for anymore signs.
Hi all,
I have been having problems with depression recently, & when I went to bed, I felt a hand on mine, like comforting, I think it was my mom, glad to know she’s with me in spirit 
.
After my son died I walked to my sister’s as I was desperately lonely. I was dreading getting back to an empty house… I cried all the way home and was dreading going through the front door. When I did I was surrounded by a warm , rush of energy that surrounded me and I felt it inside me too and I know it was my son. I’ve never felt anything like it and probably never will again. I think he was trying to comfort me. A couple of other things have happend too I picked up a book in the library for no other reason that it was sticking out slightly from the shelf, when I eventually got round to reading it one character said she has chosen Madonna like a prayer for her funeral song, my son had this song at his funeral. then towards the end a character in the book was called Rupert which is my son’s name! What’s the odds of me choosing that book! I knew nothing about it and hadn’t looked for it it chose me!
I haven’t experienced anything since… I’m so sorry you lost your son 
I hope it comforted you … it did me at the time although it is still a struggle - like we all are - I truly hope there is something ‘real’ about what we all have felt/seen x
