Her Signs In Stage 8

howhale · September 21

Over the course of the weeks leading up to my dear wife's passing. strange things kept occurring, signs if you believe, that she was providing. There were so many "coincidences" that we began to believe that was something more at play. I am uneasy even writing that here or saying it publicly. But, they continue. Images in art work noticed after 15 years of never seeing them, lost items dearly loved but thought gone forever materializing, and more. And then today on the anniversary date of my own mother's passing 16 years ago , I was startled awake at 4:52 am by the voice of my departed wife who left us about a month ago. It was unmistakable, it was crystal clear, it was her voice and only her voice calling out my name. It was quite close in time to the moment she took her final breath. Only one word, my name, but strong enough that it startled me from a sound sleep causing me to bolt upright in the bed and look all around for her. This painful grieving for her is continuous and I know it will play with my mind but I want to believe in my heart that it was her voice calling to me as she sat with my mother. How could it happen so clearly and on the same date as my mother's passing, also in the early hours that day.

I doubt that there will ever be answers for the "strange things" that happen in these times. It's unfortunate that it has become so "risky" to share with many. I acknowledge you for sharing this. I believe that each of us has our own beliefs regarding these occurences and for me the important thing is that I recognize the event and let it in as a form of support for where I'm at. Thank you for sharing!

I could fill pages with these types of incidents. Once you realize they are real, it is a comfort.

I have not experienced anything like that but several family members have told me of similar experiences they have had. Thanks for posting

I haven't experienced personally but have heard others talk about them. I do believe.

I have, on two occasions, had loved ones leave me a sign. Both had passed away years apart when I lived in my previous home. A few months after moving about 3 hours away each made their presence known on separate occasions. It was comforting. I took it to mean that even with the move they were still with me. It’s been 20 years, I’d love to know they’re still here. Especially now.

I have been fortunate to have lived and traveled in many countries. In Thailand spirit houses are very common. They are for the visiting spirits to stay in. In Thailand there is usually small offerings of food placed on/in them. I have a small spirit house outside of my home. I like the custom. Rick

I do believe that my first husband made an appearance after his death. I kept brushing it off and perhaps it was a vivid dream but to me it was as clear as a bright sunny day.
About a week after his death, I woke up and was unable to move. I was aware of my surroundings with my eyes open and my deceased hubby’s body holding me so tight, I didn’t dare move cause I knew it would be gone.. That unbelievably warm and safe embrace and it was gone in a matter of about 10 seconds. Who knows? It was lovely and I never told a single soul until now💜

I like the custom as well. One of the people who visited me was my partner who was Japanese. There was a small tabletop shrine/alter in the dining room where we’d leave offerings for his father, usually sake and tidbits for food.

With my husband’s dementia my veggie garden is my “therapy spot”. I like the idea of a shrine outside in my garden. Thank you for mentioning yours.

I absolutely believe that our loved ones can communicate with us from beyond the veil. And without the need for a medium, either. I treasure each incident and find them very comforting.

A couple of months before my husband died, I saw a bald eagle for the first time. They are fairly rare where I live. I was driving home from visiting him when I saw it. I told him about it the next day, as we had fed the birds for years. Roger was also very patriotic, so the fact it was our nation's bird made it even more special. He was excited to hear about it.

Then 10 days later I saw another one in the same area (over a deep creek). Apparently there is a breeding pair that lives there. Over the past 8 months since he died, I have seen eagles 5 or 6 times, not always near water.

Earlier this week I was having a very griefy, emotional day. I had read a FB post of a poem about what we might do when we first greet our loved one in heaven. That reminded me of the song, "I Can Only Imagine" by Mercy Me (about what we might do when we arrive in heaven and see Jesus). I was looking out my 6th floor balcony window and bawling like a baby as I sat there listening to the music. All of a sudden a magnificent bald eagle flew straight at my balcony, then veered off very close to the railing and appeared to look inside at me. I jumped out of my chair and yelled, "Roger!!" The eagle just as quickly flew off. I KNOW that was Roger coming to check on me and tell me that everything will be alright. Mind you, I live 7 miles from the nearest deep water, so that eagle is not nesting close by. I do believe God had a hand in this. (and I'm tearing up as I write this!)

@Rick4407 and @Chance Rider ..me laying offerings at Angkor Wat many many many years ago. I find comfort in many religions now. Anything and everything that promotes compassion, kindness and peace of mind I’m all in on.💜

@wose that must have been awesome! Thank you for sharing a glimpse of your experience! So many places I had hoped to travel to before this journey started. For now I’ll live vicariously through others.
