Brother from heaven

I don't have an exact date as to when these happened. It's been ongoing for the last 6 years. When my younger brother John was 22 he was in a propane explosion and died 17 days later. For the last 6 years he has been letting us know that he is still with us. There has been so many things I can't remember them all. He shakes my bed, has given me a hug and held my hand. He made a lamp shade sway back and forth (no windows or fans going) and also made a ball roll across the room. I have heard the creak of someone sitting in a chair behind me and turned around and no one was there. And I have seen him pass out of the corner of my eye. One night I woke up during the night and there was a shadow at the bottom of my bed. He tickled the bottom of my foot one night. I am not the only one who has had experiences. My parents, sisters, husband, and even my son has also had things happen to them. John was my best friend and I miss him more than anything.

First off, let me please extend my deepest condolences on the loss of your Brother. That must have been very, very painful for you and your whole family to go through.

I think it's really kind of great that he continues to participate as a family member because that is surely what he must be doing by letting his presence be known. It must give you great comfort to not only know that he is still "alive" but also that life does go on and does not cease with death. Wondering if there is truly life after death has been one of mans greatest questions. It lessens the grief to know that he can still hear you and interact with you and gives us all hope for the future, knowing that we are not separated forever.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful story!
