Death of a loved one?

Question

I just want to know if anyone has experienced this. My father passed away 5 yrs ago and about a year after he passed away I saw his face on our wall at home it wasn't a picture. He looked good though and he looked happy. I heard that it does happen but I want to know if it happen to someone else or am I just crazy.

Answer 1

When my Mom died 2 yrs ago, I did'nt believe in
this. I do now because, while she didn't manefest
herself visually, she came around several times,
letting me know she was here with a FEELING.
I had in the back of my mind somehow that
when I was leaving the house, I needed to check on something or wait for something. When deciding what to make for dinner, a little voice would say, no, Mom wants something else.One night all my kids were here and my new grand-baby. I hadn't said anything to them about Moms
presence, but after the baby was laid down in
a room down the hall, about 10 minutes later my
24 yr old son glanced down the hall and shouted, "WHAT WAS THAT!!" "Something just
went from your room into where Isabela is!!"
Everone calmed down when the babies Mom said,"Its Grandma Claudia, she just wants to get
to know Isabela before she leaves for good."No joke, we heard Isa giggle in her sleep twice but didnt awaken or cry, she slept longer than she
ever had as a colicky baby.
This was Moms house that I was living in. The room she came out of was the room I treated her in until she died. The room Isa was in was mine as a baby.
I never felt her presence here again.

Its not scary, its beautiful

Your Dad wanted you to see him looking good
so you would rest easy that he was fine.

Answer 2

It Happens.

My Grandaddy had a good time surprising our family after he passed away. He was very sick for almost a year before he passed away and i helped care for him.

One day i was doing the dishes in my grandparents house and i looked up into the doorway that led into the service porch and there he was, just standing there ...i yelled at him "Grandaddy what are you doing out of bed????" He just smiled at me and disappeared!

I talked to my mom about it the next day and she told me that she had seen him as well. She had been out in his tool shed looking for a screw driver when she turned around and he was standing there looking over her shoulder ( Grandaddy was REALLY particular about his tools LOL).

My sister also had a freaky experiance with Grandaddy. She was taking care of the house ( This was about 2 months after Grandaddy passed) and she kept feeling a draft from the hallway. She would go and close the window and door in Grandaddy's room but ten minutes later they would both be open. It freaked her out so bad she never wanted to be alone in the house again.

Grandaddy has been gone for 13 years but i still know he's here watching over our family as he did in life.

Anyhow...you are not the only one, it happens to a lot of people. Just look at it like your dad is letting you know that even though he isnt here in the physical form he will ALWAYS be there for you in the spiritual. I honestly believe that sightings like these are special gifts from our loved ones that have passed.

Answer 3

I haven't, but my Aunt (who has now passed on) said that she saw her mother. I believe this does happen, and you are not crazy. For some odd reason though, it doesn't happen to everyone. Maybe just those who need it most. I have always wanted to experience that...just to know that those who I love, who have passed away are okay. You seem like a sweet person. Your Dad probably just wanted you to know he's doing well in heaven.

Answer 4

You're not crazy. It's not unusual for a person who has lost a loved one to have hallucinations such as briefly seeing an image of them or hearing their voice. I think it's just your mind trying to comfort you. I lost my mom three years ago and every once in awhile I get these sudden, vivid sensations of smelling her favorite perfume. I immediately look around the room. It's kind of comforting thinking that she's still with me in some way.

Answer 5

You are not crazy. My wife died a little over 4 years ago, and she came to our 5 year old in a dream. Then she showed up in a picture just as plain as could be. I don't know all of the so called para normal stuff that is supposed to be associated with this but i believe that when a loved one dies and we are missing them so badly, and we question ourselves, it is their way of letting us know everything is alright.

Answer 6

Hi - sorry for your loss. No matter what you saw or how you choose to explain it, you are not crazy. ;) Everyone probably experiences visions or dreams to an extent not only with death, but break-ups, etc.

I think this is similar in that we tend to dream about situations or people or see a familiar face in a crowd (on on the wall in your case) because we are thinking about it/them. To me, this says that you still think about your father and that you miss him and want assurance that he is 'okay'.

The fact that you would discuss this and seek understanding shows that you are indeed healthy and not crazy. Best wishes.

Answer 7

A little while after my dad passed away, I was sitting in his recliner and he walked towards me (with a loving "get out of my chair" look), I jumped up and my sister started laughing "Saw dad didn't you!". He stayed around till my mom moved in with my other sister. He would also play with my daughters hair when she was going to sleep (something he had done since she was a baby). She had thanked me one morning for rubbing her head the night before -- which of course I did not do! Anyway, she started being aware when her hair was touched she knew it was grandpa.

Answer 8

I think it is wonerful...
Next time you see him tell him you love him!
We all want to believe that we do not just pass away and that is it. We want to believe that there is a purpose to the misterious life of ours.
I would like you to look into Dr. Michael Samuels...
The mind is the strongest living thing on the planet as we know..
good luck and god bless

Answer 9

I have had dreams of loved ones that have passed away. THey are all happy and look good. I believe that they do come back somehow to say goodbye or that they are doing well.

Answer 10

i had my grandmother die almost a year ago. I was heart broken because i was REALLY close to her. When i went with my family to her apartment to see which thing we wanted to keep and which we wanted to give away i was looking at one of her vases that she loved, all of the sudden i swear i saw her reflection of her sitting on one of her favorite chairs she looked happy as well. I hope this helps.
