Daughter is still close to you, 35 years after loss

Dear June

We lost our 22-year-old daughter in an accident more than 35 years ago.

Her picture hangs on our living room wall and, to us, she is still a part of the family.

She has two sisters who are married with children and we have recently become great-grandparents. I know she’s still around as I can feel and sense her at times.

We have all made peace with her loss but it would be wonderful to receive a message from her.

In my experience as a medium, the loss of a child is the most traumatic grief to endure. As parents, we expect to outlive our children and do our best to teach them about life, to make them independent and able to live without us in the future.

To me, the loss of a child is one of the most unnatural type of grief there is.

Parents also feel a strong responsibility to look after their children and many who have lost a child feel guilty at not being able to save or protect them from whatever took away their life.

To be able to sense your daughter around you and to have made peace as a family regarding her passing is a wonderful gift.

I sense your daughter was not afraid of adventure and lived her young life to the full, without any fear of change.

I also feel she was stubborn and once she set her sights on something it would be almost impossible to change her mind!

She was well-liked but also didn’t suffer fools gladly and would speak her mind freely. I sense she passed in hospital and not at the scene of an accident. She did not regain consciousness but knew her family were all there with her

Was anyone there to meet him and did he know we were all with him?

It’s very difficult to see someone you love deteriorate on a daily basis when there is no other option than to stand by, feeling helpless, as you watch them try to hang on to their identity. Your dad no longer has to

and that they were praying. I can hear the Lord’s Prayer. Did you say it out loud? She remains close to the family she loves and interacts with you all in various ways to let you know she is still close.

I am made aware of a new addition to your family and I sense he is a beautiful great-grandson.

She stands with many relatives gone before her who also take the time to visit their much-loved family.

VERDICT

We were all gathered round her in the hospital room before she passed. Her injuries were so severe she never regained consciousness and it comforts us to know she was aware we were there, praying for her.

I sat by her and quietly said the Lord’s Prayer. She was liked by all and admired for her strength of character as well as her headstrong approach to life.

Our first great-grandchild is a beautiful boy and we are happy she knows him. We have all sensed her presence and sincerely thank you for giving us validation of this. fight that battle and will recall how special you all are and how much love surrounded him just before he passed. He will be back to his old self. His illness was connected to his physical body and that has now been discarded, allowing him to be free of the restrictions the illness caused. He was collected by loved ones in spirit and will be safe in their care.
