Dear Mary Ann,
What do you think about the souls of animals? I have had several experiences in which certain cats have returned to me briefly after their deaths. It's like they want to say goodbye. Do you know of other experiences like this?





Hi Judith,
Animals absolutely have souls or spirits, and they also choose to cross into the white light or not. Many people have stories have stories like this. My own dog Major died in 1989 and did not cross over for years. Finally, last year, I had not seen him around, and I figured he was upset because we got Just Fred, our cat. Then I had a dream about him, which made me very happy, because he was where he was supposed to be.

Thanks
Mary Ann

My question is rather odd. My mother and I always had a strange connection in life. We often had the same thoughts, even when we were separated by thousands of miles. When in the same room, we often didn't have to say much, because the other would finish the thought. That freaked others out sometimes! Sometimes, when separated by miles, one of us would pick up the phone, only to find the other already on it, about to make the call herself. Sometimes, she wouldn't leave my thoughts for days, then the phone would ring, and it was her. We would often share concern over someone only to discover there had been some sort of tragedy. This happened with my oldest son. On my last birthday right before she died, he was in a car wreck early that morning.

My mother died June 21, 2006. I am living in her house now. I want to know how come I can't FEEL her around. The other night I was on the computer trying to find an answer to that question and crying. When I looked over to my right, I noticed for the first time that the filing cabinet next to the computer had a bottom drawer on it that I had never even noticed. I reached over and opened it, and right there by itself was the marble egg that I had given to her when I was 10; I'm 44 now. I thought that egg had been gone for years! Could she still be around? Was finding our egg just a happy accident in my time of despair? Any thoughts or opinions? Please help. I miss her terribly and feel as though a part of me is missing. Thank you for your time, hope I don't sound too off the wall!

Hi Lisa,
Finding the marble egg was a confirmation for you that your mom is with you. Your job is now to find another way to communicate with her. In the last 40-some years, the two of you had a kind of mental telepathic communication. You were so close. Now it is harder because she is on another plane. You have to figure out if dreams or maybe automatic writing will work for you. You just have to be open to it.

Your mother will always be part of you. You could not get rid of her even if you wanted to. If you open up a little, you will sense her soon. It has only been five months since her death. You will figure out what will work.

Hello,
My son died in an automobile accident back in September. He was only 20 years old. I want to know how the accident happened. Did he feel any pain? Is he ok? I have had dreams of him. One of which we actually hugged. Is there a way I can connect to him and ask him these questions?




Hi George-Ann,
What heartache to lose your son this way. You are already dreaming of your son, so you are connected to him. Each night before you fall asleep, say to yourself, "If I dream of (son's name), I will talk to him." The next time you have a dream about him, you can actually have a conversation with him and ask him the questions that you need answers to. Most people do not realize that this is possible. Everyone can do it.

Hope you get your answers soon.

Hello,
My husband and I had a miscarriage about 6 1/2 years ago. I was only two months along. We have four beautiful children who are close in age. When we go out, I am constantly counting to make sure we have them all; I am always looking for the fifth child. I get this panic flash. Even though I know we only have four to look after, I get this strange feeling. My husband got a vasectomy, so there is no chance it is a future child. Also, my husband will be taking a shower, and he has heard twice a child say "daddy." When he gets out, all of the children are in a deep sleep. He also says he feels like someone is in the room with him. Keep in mind, my husband does not believe in ghost stuff. So, what is your take on this?




Hi Missy,
You have your four beautiful children in your house. I believe you could also have one or two earthbound ghost children in the house. Child ghosts like to hang around live children because of the toys, activities and family life in general. All that they are missing. And yes, sometimes the living can hear both child and adult ghosts. Child ghosts will call out "mommy" or "daddy," or sometimes you can just sense them.

Do your children have imaginary friends? Maybe you are catching a glimpse of a ghost child. You look and see five children instead of four for a second, and you have a panic flash. This is not, however, the child you miscarried. That child is at peace, and is where they are supposed to be.

Maybe right now your family is just a little bigger than you thought.

Dear Mary Ann;
I lost my son to suicide in June 2005. Several nights after his death, as I was falling asleep I had a vision. An intensely bright light shone in front of me. It was so bright I could feel the pressure in my eyes, and I had to turn my head for a moment. When I looked back to see the light, it was gone. I have always thought that God was telling me my son was now safe in His arms. I was so distraught one night when I went to bed that I prayed to God and told him that I would give anything to give my son one last hug. When I fell asleep, I felt like I was hugging someone. My arms felt full as if I was actually holding him in my arms again. It was a wonderful feeling. My daughter and I have experienced many different things since his passing and attribute them to him communicating with us. My husband seems to think I live in a fantasy world when it comes to my son's death, but these things are too hard to explain otherwise.

My daughter told me that she believes my son is trying to comfort me, to let me know that he's okay. She's had a gift of discerning spiritual things since she was very small. I always tried to encourage her in that area, because I believe God gave her that gift. When she was four or five years old, she had an imaginary friend who I have since come to believe may actually have been her unborn brother or sister who I miscarried about 6 months before I conceived her. I'm not sure how that works, but it explains a lot of things in my mind. Any feedback on what I've written would be greatly appreciated as this is all so very interesting to me. Thanks for your time.




Hi Sandy,
I am so sorry for your loss. There are always so many questions with suicide. First of all, everything you have experienced has really happened. You are not in a fantasy world; your son is communicating with you and your daughter. There are so many people who have lost loved ones that would love to be able to have this happen to them.

Children have the ability to see all kinds of ghosts, so you are right that your daughter could do that when she was young. Her imaginary friends were not imaginary. However, your unborn child would not have been this friend. They would have been a ghost of a child closer to her age. Miscarriages and infant deaths do not grow up to be imaginary friends for children. Your daughter is very fortunate her gift has stayed with her past childhood. Because you and your daughter are so open, it has been very easy for your son to comfort you and show you that he is at peace.

It works: you can ask God for help and it works.

Peace,
Mary Ann

Dear Mary Ann,
My grandfather passed away about 14 years ago, just before my mother became pregnant with my youngest brother. She had hopes that he would stay around long enough to see her have a little boy that would become his namesake. My mother is not at all an emotional person, but on the day my little brother was born, she says she saw my grandpa's eyes when she looked at the baby. This event brought her to tears and is still something she doesn't understand. In recent years I've felt my grandpa's presence as well. There are times when I'm driving late at night, tired, and I get this weird feeling and the hair on the back of my neck stands up. I instantly think of him and a street light goes out. That happens a lot, the street light thing. Is this normal with spirits? Is it all a coincidence? Can he hear me when I talk to him?




Hi Jess,
Your grandfather did not miss your brother's birth, and I am sure he is enjoying being around his namesake. Your mother missed your grandfather so much that he wanted her to know that he was there and he was proud of her and the baby. Your mother could see it in the baby's eyes.

I am sure your grandpa is often around visiting. You are sensing his energy, which is why the hair on the back of your neck stands up. Any time you talk out loud and he is around, he can hear you. Ghosts cannot read minds. In my experience, street lights go out because the headlights on you car are out of alignment! I have never seen ghosts mess with street lights.

Thanks,
Mary Ann
