Re: Courage - I stand corrected

Hi Courage-

I guess it may be a bit better knowing that your sister didn't give the

pacifier, however, I am in total agreement with you. A bit cheeky for sure.

I probably would have chosen a less polite way of putting it.

As for your dad sitting in with your mom. I know your dad is looking after

your family. This seems to prove that. A Godincidence!! I would take

comfort in knowing your dad is there.

Thank you for sharing this story.

Many heartfelt hugs-

-- I stand corrected

Hi All,

Found out today that my sister did not give my mom the pacifier. One of the

evening staff ladies did and I still think its awfully cheeky to do so

without consulting the family but there you have it.

On another note, one of the overnight staff said that she saw my dad sitting

on his recliner chair next to mom's bed as he used when he was alive. Wow!

Then the staff got to talking about mom's lips looking swollen and they

remembered that when she had this before it was because my dad kept kissing

her all the time. What do you all think? Its either very comforting or too

weird for words.

Courage,

As far as weird sightings like that go I'd have to say, who knows really?? I

always wonder if

the " hallucinations " so many of our LOs see aren't something a little more other

worldly

rather than psychological. Their brains are going through SOOOO many changes

and

switches are being flipped on and off so rapidly all the time who's to say they

aren't just

becoming more sensitive to things the rest of us aren't gifted enough to see?

And then

there are those rare few (like the staffer at your mom's home maybe) who have

this gift all

the time. I think its nice to think of your dad being able to cross that divide

to visit your

mom sometimes. I know that since my dad passed when I was 16 I still

occasionally have

dreams about talking with him that are so vivid I wake up and could swear I feel

him

around.
