My Grandma was a nurse for over 45 years having started out nursing with the Army in WWII.

She later became a Sister on Post-op wards and worked a lot on the night shift.

She told me that one morning she was approached by a Junior Doctor who said "Oh Sister, Mrs. --- seems much better this morning."

My Gran looked at him and quite calmly told him that Mrs.--- had died during the previous evening.

The poor doctor had to be taken to sit down, she said she'd never seen a person become so pale so quickly!!

I saw an interview on the Oprah show not so long ago with the real Ghost Whisperer, the person who's life experiences with the spirit world has and does happen. This has totally convinced me that this is a very real thing.

I also believe that sometimes when we dream about our dead relatives, that they're trying to communicate with us. Ex. My mother was not the right kind of mother to me at all. She tried to apologize to me for the things she did after I left home. I half-heartedly forgave her, but when i gave myself to Christ, I forgave her completely.

I now very often dream about her, and we are close, and we are having good times together.
