Oh that is lovely Dani! My Dad died in 2006 (like you he was a BIG part of my life I saw him every day). Joel my youngest was 4 years old. In the first few days after he died, Joel kept saying he 'saw' Dad (my Dad babysat Joel while I went to work part time up until he got too sick). It gave me goosebumps! I thought it was so sweet. Like you one night I opened my eyes (this was only a couple of years ago now) and there was this dark face leaning over right near my face. At first it startled me because I wasn't expecting it, but then I didn't feel frightened and put it down to my Dad visiting me  I think it's amazing what we can see and feel (if we allow ourselves to) that brings comfort to us. As everyone has said, you will never stop missing him and being sad of course, but you just learn to eventually live with it I guess! |

I used to take my best friend, Robyn, out for drives every 2nd weekend. She had major leg problems and couldn't really walk very well and it was difficult for her to drive. Just after she died, I was parking the car when I caught a glimpse of someone in the passenger seat. It was really unsettling and shook me up quite a bit but I think it was her way of saying goodbye. Her death was so sudden - I was the last person she spoke to - it took well over a year to accept that she had gone as I just couldn't believe it. I sometimes think that the ones that have passed into spirit, stay to look after the ones they left behind. I do get things happening when one of my animals passes away - it happens every time so I just accept it as their way of saying goodbye.

My father died in 2001. I can't say I've ever seen him, but there was a strange event right after he died. I asked if I could keep his wedding ring. He had gotten so skinny that he hadn't been able to wear it for a long time, but he kept it on his nightstand. Four people, including myself, practically tore the place apart looking for it, and we could not find it. The next day, there it was, on his nightstand. I can think of logical explanations that have nothing to do with the supernatural, but I prefer to think there was a little magic there.

It was good to hear from you Dani. One day at a time. I was crying for my Mom the other day in bed... and the TV was playing... and the person on the TV said... "she was born March 3rd"... that is my Mom's birthday.
We will continually be given little signs that they are around us.. and are watching out for us.
Take care Dani

I'm so sorry to read of your Dad's passing, Dani, but am glad you had that comforting experience. I am not particularly religious, but do believe that our psyche sends these experiences to us for a reason. It sounds like it was a way for your father to provide you with some solace and reassurance. Whether it happened in this plane of existence, or in your mind does not change it or make it less real. My thoughts are with you and I hope you have time to grieve and remember your Dad. xxx

Today was my 35th birthday. It was a fun filled, fantastic day, don't get me wrong...but now that it's over and I have time (too much time) to think, I really miss my daddy.  |

Thank you, all. His birthday was on Saturday, and that was tough, too. But it's over and life feels "normal" again. :-)
