My husband passed away 7 weeks ago after a horrible illness. About 4 months ago I asked him to send me signs that he was okay when he passed. He didn't believe in such things. I asked him to turn the lights on and off.
I was crying and laying in bed 3 days after he died and the light on the nightstand started flickering on and off 3 times. I looked at it and said his name and asked if he was there.
About a week later, my son and I were sitting in the living room. My son was sitting in my husband's favorite chair. I saw something flash and dive into the corner of the room. My son looked at me and said he had seen it too. It was like an orb.
A week after that I was getting ready for work and my lights in the bathroom flashed 3 times.
Two days ago I was driving to work and smelled coffee so strong it was if I had brewed it in the truck. My husband loved coffee. I don't take coffee with me to work. The smell lingered about a couple minutes.
His favorite songs have been playing on the radio all the time. One time The Eagles, " Best of my love" was playing and as I was singing the volume turned up. I don't have a volume control on the steering wheel.
These are not coincidence's. I was wondering if anyone else has had similar signs.

Give yourself the gift of trusting your heart. If it's true in your heart, then let it be so. And be selective as to who you share the experience with.
I absolutely believe that.
Now that both my parents have died, my Mom the most recent loss, there have been some astounding coincidences -- no, way beyond coincidences.
Several nights after Mom's death, I was abruptly awakened by a cold hand on my ankle. It only lasted a second or two, it dissipated as soon as I was startled awake and said out loud " WHAT THE HELL"
It's never happened again, thank goodness. I believe it was an uncle (also deceased) who was gruff and intimidating in life -- wondering what was going on in a dysfunctional situation with my irresponsible brother.
Ever since I've not been able to sleep without being sure that my feet are secure under the covers
It embarrasses me a bit to post this as I'm not superstitious by nature but I hope it may reassure someone else. And every other reminder or sense of contact has been a big comfort.
And I "asked" (is that the right word? Prayed to?) my Grandma to protect me against any other terrifying contact like that.
She was the indominatable matriarch in life, who no one would mess with.
I didn't believe these things were possible until I experienced it myself.
I was curious, so I asked my former pastor if it was possible that Beth was sending these signs my way...his thoughts are that the deceased persons are at peace, with no thought of those left behind - however, our angels send these comforts to us to let us know that our loved ones have reached Nirvana.
A great book on the subject: Signs from the Afterlife by Lyn Ragan
