Hi Denise ...

I'm like you ... so many things that have no explanation ... too many to put on here ... and like you I'm sure they watch over us ... but I think we get those signs when we don't look for them .. and so many put those signs done to logic and l believe we have to be open if one comes along ...

It sure brings me comfort... l get so frustrated at all the films where a loved one comes back.. and be seen ... if only that could come true ... but at the end of the day ... as long as we can draw comfort from it ... what harm ... so you keep your mum close ... I think mum's and esp kids have an invisible cord, that can't be cut ... chrissie xx

I love this! Me and mum always said we would send each other a sign when one of us passed....it was to be the scent opium.....sadly my mum passed 4 years ago....and a few short hours after she went a strong smell of opium came over me, it was very powerful.....I definitely believe it was her...... xxx

Thank you so much for posting, I also believe in signs from loved ones.

I lost my mother in November 2018 and we have had a few signs since and these are what keep me going with knowing that however hard things are I know there is something else after we pass away and that I will see my mother again in the next life. I also truly believe that a mother's love is so strong that it cannot just stop existing because the body is gone.

I also had a very strong dream about my mother and I truly believe this was her telling me she was ok.  Has anyone else had a visitation dream?

Hi yep they do i think for a while to make sure we are ok there are things that have happend to actualy help me they cant cxplain away everything. Paul

Thats great i think people see or hear things and just shrug them off theye say dreams are a good way lots of people on this site have commented on it life just dosent end that way we are made of inteligent energy even science dosnt disput that .paul

That's fab Marlyn!! My mother also looked well and healthy she was laughing and happy and I now know she is not suffering anymore and that helps me so much. I also woke abruptly after it and just knew that was Mam coming to tell me she was ok such a priceless comfort for us.

Paul, 

It's definitely helped me to have signs and that special dream. I asked my mother before she passed would she send me a sign and I believe this dream was indeed her way of telling me she was still here watching over us all as she always had done.

Yes i beleive your mums there to  i think they pop back when we need them hence your dream as time goes by your pain will dwindle and be replaced by pleasnt loving memories takes a while thoe just try and think that when you get a bad day .paul

Thanks so much for the replies everyone. It gives me huge consolation and encouragement to know that you have had similar experiences and that you also believe in these lovely visits. It's all we have of our precious loved ones and it's all we need right?! I never knew this was a possibility until mam went. I foolishly thought that when you go you go but these little spiritual postcards keep me going and when I'm overcome with the tears it makes it easier knowing that she's holding my hand through this. Soon after she went we were all together and enjoying cake and tea,  we were all at the table and the tv was muted, no-one left the table at this point.  After a while my sister laughed and asked who had changed the station,  no-one had but somehow it had gone from the tv to a religious radio station (one of her favourite radio stations) and religious music was playing, how can you explain this?! We were so happy that she had dropped by to say hello.  I must add at this point that my mother was very religious and most of her visits have had a religious element. 

Then the other day I had to visit a terminally ill lady in work. I was dreading it to be honest as I'm still too raw for all this. Anyway the visit went well and as I was opening my car door to get in out of nowhere I felt my mams presence, she literally pushed me into my car!. I was so happy that she was waiting outside for me , she must have sensed I was worried about the visit.  There are too many signs and visits to mention but they all lead to the same thing which is that they really do stay with us until we are all reunited one day. Last week in church I was praying on her rosary beads and crying and begged her for a sign. When I went to the bottom of the church on the way out I felt a strong feeling come over me to go over to a table where a book of condolence for a deceased priest had been set up. I had no reason to go over to it as I didn't know him but I went along with the feeling and trusted.  When I looked at the page the first names I saw were my mam and dad's first names (different surname) in huge writing at the top of the page. Now I know mam didn't christen these people but I do feel that she led me over to this book so as I would see the sign. The combination of her and dad's names are unusual I must add. If the writing had been smaller or halfway down the page I wouldn't have noticed but to see it in black and white at the top of the page me feel as if I'd won the lotto. I just stood there smiling and smiling. 

Thanks for listening to me and sorry for the long post.

Keep sharing your stories,  I know they are listening in!

Lots of love 

Denise
