Spiritual mediums, what do you think?
Have you thought about going to or gone to a medium to try and make contact with your spouse? I have thought about it and would love to try it but am not sure how to go about finding a legitamate one. I would love to hear that he is here with me, watching over me and that he is okay and happy. Do you believe in them or do you think its a waste of money? What are your experiences or thoughts.

Wow, Bonnie, I'm so glad you mentioned Brian Weiss. When my whirlwind romance with Sergio began in 1994, I was living in Miami and he was taking a vacation from his job as a cop in the Bronx, NY. We were both 26 years old, from Flushing, Queens and spoke with hard-core NY accents, "effin' this and effin' that", while chain smoking and drinking each other under the table when out partying with our friends. When we were alone together though, it was a totally different picture- talking into the wee hours of the morning about our childhood experiences, hopes and dreams, and spirituality. I was taken aback when Sergio spoke so passionately about the book someone had recommended to him "Many Lives, Many Masters" and his fascination with the possibility of reincarnation, souls living together during different lifetimes, and encounters with Master souls. I hadn't read the book yet but was captivated by him talking about it and it became one of the many reasons why I fell in love with him. I read that book and all the others by Brian Weiss, and took so much comfort in his findings about life, death, and reincarnation, particularly because I was dealing with the suicide of my biological mother. When I lost Sergio on 9-11, I received all sorts of signs that he was still around. One of the last gifts he left me with though, was in his locker at his firehouse- a copy of Brian Weiss' book, "Only Love is Real: A Story of Soul Mates Reunited". Needless to say it was yet another affirmation for me that love transcends death.
Going back to the topic of mediums, I can't say enough how instrumental my experiences have been in my ability to accept the losses I've endured- knowing my loved ones are in a better place, while guiding us all the way, is a huge comfort. I still highly recommend Elaine, the woman who first brought Sergio to me in the article I posted earlier in this thread. She does phone readings and is very reasonable at $100 per hour. Besides the clear and meaningful connections I've received in every reading I've had with her, what I love is that she has an incredible amount of empathy after losing one of her partners and is an excellent spiritual counselor to boot.
Best of luck to every one who travels this road- my prayers of peace, comfort, and strength are with you... <3

Hi Tanya, I went back to your original post to get Elaine's phone number and read your article. Thank you so much, your story is so moving and heartbreaking. I'm glad Elaine was able to give you and your loved ones some comfort.You're doing great work in honor of your dear Sergio.

I am so glad someone else read this book and loved it, Tanya, I also have that book "only love is real",
when I was at his seminar he did some regression randomly picking people and also group regression, it was unreal, in group regression a woman from Japan was reunited with a woman in Puerto Rico and another one from New York. They were not sitting together, 200 people attended and they didn't know each other. These 3 women went back 500 years, all born in Asia and from the same family. Of course, lot more there to tell. Brian Weiss is becoming very well known, 50 doctors attended from all over the world, they all came to learn and witness. You can find him on Utube. I believe one day science will be able to tell us more about the other dimension, so many TV shows related to this field.

To everyone who was interested in a telephone consultation with my medium, two things - her rates are $35 for half an hour and up from there, and she wants me to let you all know, you can call her with questions about what she would be doing, what to expect, etc. She's happy to discuss it all with you, then you can decide if you want to set up a phone appointment with her. Again, let me know if anyone wants her contact information, it's not okay to publish it on here, WV rules, so just send me a message if you can or befriend me with one attached, and I'll give you her number. She's a lovely person, very down to earth and kind. As I said before, it has helped me immensely. Answered my most pressing questions, and was just unmistakably Billie. What a true joy to know he is still around, and still himself, only healthy now. He answered questions I've asked him but not through her, even, things I'd been troubled over. It really helped.

Christina, That's one of the best things that I took away from my meeting with the psychic I saw, that Mark is so happy in his healthy and pain free body (not that he's actually in a body now). She told me he is exercising every day which would be foreign to him but he said he is so happy to be feeling good again that he really wants to use his body again. That makes me feel so good because one of my worst memories is of his poor body wasting away:(

I think they are fine, if used with some caution. One should be careful that they are reputable, of course. We also need to be prepared that they might not give us the information we want. I think that, for myself, it is important that I "choose life." That doesn't mean that I would not go to a medium but I would not want to make my desire for contact with Jud exceed my desire to stay involved in life here on Earth.

That cruise sounds great, I did take that cruise last year by myself, it was nice but I didn't have the channel-er experience, I wish I could go, I spent all my money last month on another vacation, may be next year.

I did go to one after Don died, and I didn't tell her much; she used Tarot cards. One thing that I recall and that fit me was that she told me in a year from "now" (when I saw her) I would still be living in this area; I had been considering a relocation with that year... and yes, I"m still where I've been for the past 29 years!
I did go and see a Rabbi, however. I had been having "experiences" in the house, especially the bedroom, and I just know deep in my bones the Don was visiting. Then one night the dog got totally spooked, and would not leave my lap; he wouldn't cross the threshold into the bedroom, where he slept! so the Rabbi explained to me that in Hebrew, there is a word for animals (which I can't spell!) that means "higher life" because the belief is that animals can sense souls when they visit, and he explained when the soul leaves the body, it passes to another plane - and can also pass across planes, like in coming back to this "plane" that we live in, and visit. And that souls who had a good live and were deeply loved, and loved deeply, do often cross back and forth to be around those they loved and were loved by. I know how true it is, but it made me feel better!

Dear Goingon:
I have had two experiences now. My husband passed in Sept. 2010. One was about 8 months after he passed, I was at a concert with his son, his fiance and her parents, and his ex-wife and her husband of 20+ years.
I suddenly "felt" his presence. I just knew he was there. I have not had that experience or feeling since then.
The other instance was a "dream". We were getting ready to go to sleep - I was curled up next to him, I could smell his fresh t-shirt (he always wore a t-shirt to bed) he had hair like he did before chemo, and when he turned to give me a good night kiss I could feel him roll over. I had several instances of feeling he rolled over shortly after he passed, and one instance when I was sleeping I felt as if someone was pushing on me. However, I discounted those episodes as it was so soon after he passed.
My Rabbi said Ken definitely visited during the dream and at the concert, and I have no doubt.
Your husband has visited you, this I believe to be entirely true.
God Bless,
Nancy

I have no doubt that my husband's energy has been around me since he passed away, too many to write and yes, I have also had dreams, they were too real, it has been 4 years and dreams at this point has almost stopped but his energy the feeling that he is around has not. I used to contact a reputable medium quite frequently and she would confirm it, things that she told me no one would know but him.
She would comment about my life like I recently bought a pocket book or I took vacation or my mother is sick etc. She is 2 thousands miles away, there is no way for her to know. He told her some of the places we vacationed to validate it was him. I am a believer now(didn't used to be in the past).

Michelle, I just posted a blog about my reading on Sunday. I highly recommend Mark Anthony. He was so clear and concise with his reading and I did not feel any of it was fake. He is extremely busy and kind of expensive but for me it was worth the wait and the cost. I will get you the info if you are interested.
