[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom died six weeks ago, and she had a very definite belief in extrasensory perception and conversations with those who had passed.  I knew that if she could communicate with me once she had passed away, she would.  As I texted my husband after she died, "Mom showed up" in several ways.

*While we were choosing her casket, after we'd made our decision, I noticed that there was an angel figurine air freshener next to the one we'd chosen.  I asked the funeral director about it (it was an odd thing to have in the room at all and I'd not noticed it).  She was embarrassed but also startled, as it had not been there before and she had no idea what it was doing there.  My mother adored angels; she also would have adored that particular casket.

*That same day, while we were sitting in the funeral home, out of nowhere, my mother's voice started 'speaking' from my phone (it was simply a voice mail that I'd saved but I still have no idea why it started playing as my phone wasn't in use and it was a very old message).

*Before she died rather suddenly, she'd given me a cash gift to 'go play' as I was visiting from out of town. Subsequently after she died I'd run to a consignment shop to buy something for her funeral (having traveled with nothing appropriate). I was startled to find a dress that fit me 'to a T', a Carolina Herrera - that store had never had a Herrera in stock and I was especially surprised because for 25 years, my mother had given me Carolina Herrera perfume for Christmas, until they stopped making it 'the old way.'  The clerks in the store had chills when I recounted the story.  Needless to say, I bought the dress. I guess I shouldn't have been surprised that the dress cost the exact amount of money my mom had given me to 'go play' before she became ill and died....

*The week after her death I was feeling blue, as it was the day before my parents' wedding anniversary. I asked my mom 'for a sign' that she was still 'talking with me.' For back story, she'd always said that 'when I get to heaven, I'm going to find Elvis and have him sing to me.' She also depended on my dad a great deal, but most of all on holding his hand, especially in the last two very difficult weeks, and for his birthday (which fell during that time)  I'd picked a card for her that emphasized how much she depended on holding his hands for strength.  She died, in fact, holding my hand, my brother's, and my dad's.  At any rate, on this very blue day, I walked into one of her favorite stores, and just then, an Elvis song was playing:  as I got to the back room, the lines "Take my hand, take my whole life too" came over the speakers (from "I can't help falling in love with you").  It was the perfect 'day before their anniversary" song.

There have been other 'signs' since then, and I hope there will continue to be, whether they are just in 'my' head or not.  They bring me certain comfort, and they are what I need at this time. Thanks for a forum in which to share them![/quote]

I’m totally crying. Ask your mom to visit you in a dream. I bet she will. It’s the best. It’s like seeing them again. [/quote]
