No longer feel presence

-

Dear June

MY wife passed away 18 months ago, after 33 years of marriage.

Although it’s hard to believe, I don’t have any doubts she was still with me in a different form.

Over the last few weeks, I haven’t had any indication she is still there. Has she crossed over?

George, Tyne & Wear.

June Says

It is quite common after the passing of a loved one that they remain by the side of those they had to leave behind to offer love and support.

Many, like yourself, have experience­d feelings of great comfort from this as they receive the evidence that their loved ones are OK and they have gone to great lengths to let you know they are still around.

Although they no longer have physical bodies, they are of the same character and hold the same love towards us they always did.

Many are perceptive enough to sense and feel their loved ones around, while others might be too overcome with grief.

Having numbed their emotions they are unaware that those they love walk unseen by their side.

These visits become less frequent as their purpose has been fulfilled and we find we become more aware of their presence on special days like birthdays, anniversar­ies and Christmas.

This does not mean they have deserted us. They have already proved their existence when it was most needed.

Your good lady will still remain by your side and is content to know that even though you are not as aware of her as you were, you know she is still around.
