“If you’re never going to die, you don’t need this book”

Several years ago a beloved Siamese cat of mine was ripped to shreds in my garden by some stray dogs. That day I had to drive my in-laws to a Doctors appointment, of course I couldn’t stop crying. When I told them what had happened my mother in law said, it was just a cat and to get over it.
The other day I did a reading for a young woman who’s boyfriend of 4 years died of natural causes. They had planned a life together, and now her life has disappeared. The world will never give her the respect of a grieving widow. She will not have his Social Security, she will not be able to have her address as Mrs, …all this to cope with at the age of 19. I hope she never experiences anyone saying cruel words like: after all he was just your boyfriend, you’ll bounce back.
No one can know or really has the right to judge the experience of another in grief.

When I work with a living client one of my goals is to encourage them to be open to their deceased loved one. Validating messages, such as lights blinking, a smell associated with the deceased, finding coins or natural events such as birds, butterflies, blossoming plants is part of this.
But I can also help the living hear those whispered messages into their thoughts that come from their beloved deceased. These messages have a specific flavor or tone and are not something the living client would have had occur to them on their own. I always ask in what setting or circumstance the living “heard” the messages. Often it is when they are distracted but calm, for example when they are driving, not in heavy traffic, and alone in the car.
Recently, I was taking my puppy to the vet on his appointed day to be neutered and was thinking about my deceased friend Dotte who got me into dogs, and I changed the radio station in time to hear a song who’s refrain said: everything is going to be FINE FINE FINE. I knew it was Dotte answering me, as I was worried about my puppy. We are all psychic enough to receive messages from the deceased we have known and loved if we are open to them.
