Hi Everyone! I read a book this summer that I must share with all of you. It's called "The Afterlife of Billy Fingers". In short, it's the story of a woman whose brother dies suddenly, and communicates with her to tell her what's on the "other side". It's been deemed credible by sources that I would say are experts. Most importantly, it's given me SUCH PEACE to think that I can better understand what Mike went through when he died, and where he may be now. I've shared it with a few others, and they all loved it too. Just wanted to pass it along with the hope that it can help others in this process.
Wishing you all love and light!

I can't read, not yet. I love to read and I love to draw but it seems that somehow I'm being "stopped", that somehow I'm being drawn to memories only.....right now.
I'm a believer in mediums and afterlife and for some bizarre reason, my focus is on right now and before. I don't mind. I think there's truly a reason that I'm being drawn to the "before" and to the now, with no distractions..
To read would take a great deal of energy and thought and I can't but I'll try later......it sounds like something I'd like and could get in to.

history of reading at least a book a week or so for many
years. After my wife passed a little over 5 months ago,
I couldn't bring myself to read the incoming mail.
But, a family member gave a book to me. The suggestion
was made that I try to read a few pages at a time and to
bookmark given pages and highlight certain paragraphs
on those pages. It has taken me three months to read
the book but now I am referring back to it almost daily.
It is named:
On Grief and Grieving - Finding the Meaning of Grief
Through the Five Stages of Loss.
The authors are Elisabeth Kbler-Ross and David Kessler.
This book has been helpful as I realize all of the things I have
been going through. I hope perhaps helps others.
