It’s been just under 3 years since we lost our lovely daughter Amy. Amy was just 21 years old and although she was healthy, she suffered a sudden death.
Since her passing I have seen lots of feathers all over the town where we live.
More recently I have spotted a n almost double of Amy. There’s a couple of young women who I see in our town who either look like Amy or walk like her.
I have only ever seen one other double in the past and this was my Dad. I don’t see anyone like him anymore.
I’m wondering if this is normal and does it mean anything?
Hi,
Firstly I am so sorry that you have lost your daughter. I would like to say that I also keep finding white feathers and they usually are found very close to my front and back door. I like to think that it is a sign that my boyfriend is still around me and is reminding me not to give up. It has been a couple of years now and I still keep finding them. However I have recently read that to find white feathers is a sign that your own angel is with you and close by. Whilst the true reason may not be known, finding one always stops me in my tracks and I think of him, which is a lovely moment in itself and I smile. I also have experienced a moment when I thought I saw him whizz past me on his bike, in his usual kit. I’m sure you are not alone in experiencing this. I like to believe that they are signs of him being around and they always seem to happen when I’m not expecting it which is just lovely.
Hi,
Thanks for reaching out. Sorry for the loss of your boyfriend.
The feathers have stopped. I only see Amy’s double locally and when I do, they’re near my wool shop or in our town centre.
I wonder if they happen because we still have her ashes. Amy died in Manchester, but after her cremation we brought her home to Scotland. I haven’t been able to part with her yet.
My heart is broken for you for you losing your daughter so suddenly and I do hope that you do not find these occurrences distressing. It is interesting that you describe these sightings as recurring and at a familiar place. I have found a brief article on this phenomena on the cruse bereavement website (which I can send a link to if required) My experience was only once and it impacted me and I found it thought provoking and a little confusing but overall a happy moment. I hope you are able to find some comfort too and not further pain. I also still have ashes and feel ok with holding onto them.
