Husband will return for you

-

Dear June

JUST before my husband passed away he looked up and smiled at someone as if in recognitio­n.

He looked so peaceful when he closed his eyes and this experience has brought me great comfort over the years.

I often wonder who it was who came for him?

Jean, Hartlepool.

June Says

There are always people from spirit around who are connected to the loved one while they are in the transition period from this side of life to the next.

It is extremely comforting for relatives gathered around a dying loved one to see them smile and look towards a corner of the room in recognitio­n, as they are being greeted by someone they love.

This happens to everyone who is close to death and they are greeted by family or friends who come to reassure them that they will be all right and to finally let go of their physical body.

Unfortunat­ely, some loved ones who are close to death are not conscious before passing over and therefore are not able to give signs and gestures to those who gather lovingly around their bedside in order to say goodbye.

It would be wonderful if there was a window from which we could view our loved ones immediatel­y after their death to enable us to see them walk away with those who we know love and care for them.

You were given an insight at your husband’s passing that changed your perception of death being so final.

You now know that one day he will return for you.
