Hi. My lovely, kind, caring, brave mother died of the awful 'c' word. Her anniversary's coming up next month. I hope no one thinks i'm a whimp. But it's the 4th year anniversary. I feel i should be further along with my 'journey of grief'. But i'm not. We were so close. I feel like i've lost several people, the grief is still so fresh. I'm getting emotional as i write this!
Anyway.
One morning. It was a few months after she'd died. I was very low. Had my head under my duvet. Feeling so emotional. Then i heard a lovely bird chirping. I thought it was in my bedroom. I slowly drew back the curtain & saw a lovely little bird looking up at me. (I think it was a Greenfinch). All our flats have wire round the windowledges, to stop birds landing. But it didn't stop this lovely little thing. I said hello quietly & asked it to come in. It didn't. it took 1 more concerned look at me. Then flitted off. The thing is. I've lived in my flat for nearly 20 yrs. That sort of thing never happened before or since. I just know it was my lovely mum telling me she's ok. She's free. Free from pain & FREE AS A BIRD. That little moment meant so much to me. Very special.
I wondered if anyone else had any 'signs' like this?
