Son hears you talk to him

-

Dear June

TEN years ago, my beloved son passed with a brain tumour.

I miss him more every day.

He was a loving son, husband and father who suffered terribly for the last year of his life.

I think of him first thing every morning and last thing at night.

Please help make an old lady feel at peace.

Anon, Glasgow.

It is a terrible tragedy for a mother to watch helplessly while her child suffers, as it is a natural instinct for a mother to fix and protect her children from harm at all costs.

I totally understand your worries and concerns as a mum and your desperatio­n to know he is all right.

Your son is no longer affected by the trauma created by his ailment and is now spirituall­y free from the restraints of the physical body that caused him so much pain.

There were many loved ones from spirit side who gathered round him prior to his passing in an effort to help him with his transition from this world to the next.

He had become very tired with the long, hard fight he endured and I sense he was aware of them.

An older lady took his hand and he willingly let go of this life and moved with her almost effortless­ly into the next.

He hears you talk to him each day as he is often present around you all and knows he is still very much a part of the family.

He will be looked after with lots of TLC until he is once again in the loving arms of his mum.

Unexpected passings can leave those left behind feeling very confused, lost and in total disbelief.

You’ll all need some time to grieve, adjust and settle into a new normality without him.

I get the impression your husband kept good health and was always fit, active and able to shrug off minor aches and pains without the need to visit the doctor.

I also sense he was not on medication and would need to be persuaded to take anything, even an aspirin.

I am shown a pencil drawing of a feather that has great detail and intricacy and feel it holds some meaning for a younger family member.

A capital P is being written and I can hear the name Don/Dawn being called.

Your husband is being brought forward and is accompanie­d by an older lady who I sense is a mother figure. Is it your mum? I feel more of a connection with you rather than your husband.

She has been on spirit side for a long time and I’m being told she didn’t reach her 70th year and feel this would also hold some relevance as to why she mentions that fact.

Your mum and husband are

coming forward to support you as you’ve been too busy supporting everyone else. They seem to get on well. I sense your husband to be a very matter-of-fact man who would always accept changes without questionin­g them, therefore he has settled well on the spirit side of life.

He is no longer in any pain or discomfort.

He gives me the impression he’s already given you all a sign that he arrived safely.

VERDICT

My husband was never ill a day in his life and didn’t believe in popping pills for the sake of it, as he felt his body would sort itself out.

After his funeral we returned home to find two TVs and a radio on in the house that were definitely off before we left. We always hoped it was a sign from him.

Our daughter has a tattoo of a feather in memory of her dad.

Mum passed five days before her arranged 70th birthday celebratio­ns.

She always got on well with my husband as they both loved a good laugh.

Donald (Don) is my fatherin-law’s name.
