ADC Guest Book - Page 7

I read many of the stories here today. The loss of our loved ones is the most difficult thing one will ever endure in their life. The silence of the life that was once so much a part of our every day life is sometimes overwhelming. It is at the times you feel the most unhappy and the void is just to much that you should know in your heart that they are there with you. It is the same as when they were here in the flesh to lift you up, nothing has changed in that respect. Do you think God would ever take that from you? No he wouldn't. So I say to you believe and you will be hearing from your loved ones, Jesus say's "Ask and it shall be given" Believe as a child would believe. Let nothing come between you and your communication with God. He Really does love each and every one of us. I know from where I speak, I lost my 25 year old son Jason, Oct,5 /96, to a drunk driver. HE STILL VERY MUCH WITH US! God Bless you all.

Lost my husband who was my very best friend, partner and soul mate for 37 years on 9/23/97 - 6:30 PM. My Bob had not been ill, a sudden massive heart attack took him away. He was a good man..truly an angel in disguise...battled alcoholism for many of his adult years however at the time of his death, through the grace of God and AA, he had been sober for 25 years. The outpouring of love and support was phenomenal...I met so many people he had helped that I never even knew. His good deeds were done without fanfare or expectation of recognition or reward. I know he is in heaven...and wouldn't want us to mourn...but we miss him so much. Looking forward to reading your book...if there is any way for him to communicate with us...I know it will happen. Thanks for providing this site...it helps the hurting to share with others.

I lost my husband and soul mate to heart arrythmia suddenly on Jan. 30 this year. He had just turned 39. I read and reread your book, "Hello From Heaven" over and over. It was the one thing that gave me hope and comfort and assured me I was not insane with the ADC's I had been receiving. I also had a vision before he died to warn me of his passing over that I did not understand until afterward. I also lost a sister in 1978 suddenly to a blood clot. She was just 25 and married 6 weeks. I am still hurting extremely bad and some days can barely go on but I have hope that life goes on. I am a skeptic by nature but the ADC's have been so obvious and with witnesses, they have been impossible to count as anything but messages and signs from my husband.

Happened onto this site while doing research for a paper. I lost my son 8 years ago in April; a victim of teen suicide. There have been many ADC's and I thank God each and every time it happens. Death is only a separation for awhile. For those of you who are newly bereaved, keep the faith. You will survive, even if you don't want to. Someday, you will see colors again. I only wish I had had someone to say this to me 7 years ago. God Bless all of you.

My precious 17 year old son, Matthew Brandon Sooy, died suddenly on April 11, 1997. One week after he was buried I heard him call "Mom". My mother and husband have also had an ADC with Matt in a dream. My 20 year old daughter, Jessyka, often has dreams that seem to be ADC. I've been praying for another ADC from my beloved son, but with no luck. My heart has a huge hole in it since he left.

I would like to know how to get in touch with Dr. Raymond Moody for the purpose of incorporating one of his NDE friends that relaxation "chair/spa" (it was mentioned in the book "After the Light") into a viable consumer-friendly atmosphere. I don't have details but I have received this idea through a revelation of sorts. Any help on this would be appreciated.

I stumbled onto this site from another site and am so glad I did. I lost my mother suddenly in Feb of '91 and am in fear of losing my "other" mother--my step mom-- to cancer. I have lost way too many important people in my life in the past few years. Every time I feel that i can finally cope with the loss of one loved one, another one dies. It hurts. Jenn

There is no greater way of expressing love than to keep alive the memory and the spirits of those we lost, than to reach out to others to let them know they are not alone. I sincerely extend my appreciation to Judy Guggenheim for her work of love and offer to become our "neighbor" in joining forces with her remarkable forum and ours, GROWW, Inc. Our site is viewed through http://www.groww.com. We offer support in every aspect of grieving through support "chat rooms" on AOL at present until a forum that is accessible to all is found. Our "Branches" consist of various forms of support as follows: Adult Guiding Angels - Over 20 losing a parent - RRArtist4U & TOOSEXY741 All our Angels - Friends, Family and multiple losses - Merci70034 Enabled Angels - Living with Emotional and substance abuse - Charl51739 & Rosaliebk For Widowed Only - Deblynna, Chinaraw GADD - Groww against Drunk Driving - ERASandy & SueB816 GROWW, Grief Recovery Online - JDivers & Monitors Guiding Angels - Under 20 losing a parent - RRArtist4U & TOOSEXY741 Heavenly Angels - Bereaved Parents - TripL155 Kindred Angels - Sibling loss - Contact - Sunset654 PTA - Parenting Teenagers Alone RRArtist4U & AKAnnie g Reluctant Angels - Survivors of Suicide - Teetsee Special Angels - Our children with disabilities PennyRVr &Martygal Stormy Angels - Rape survivors - Charl51739 & Texrig Tender Angels - Widowed under age 49 - SWells4617 Timeless Angels - Terminal illnesses - Mustang 147, Unexpected Angels - Sudden deaths - TripL155 ALL SCREENAME ADDRESSES TO BE FOLLOWED BY @aol.com for information on the branches, or visit our website where Email is available for each Branch Coordinator at http://www.groww.com We hope that you will visit our room and become part of what we feel is the best online support group available. (One of the best now that I've discovered this forum). The success is based on the anonymity of the membership, the candid conversations of one's innermost pain spoken freely, the silent words, the faceless faces, the confidentiality of identity and the freedom to express oneself without shame or judgement. The topics are the members themselves. Open discussions based on the grief of the individual member shared with other members. The members are the experts for they themselves have experienced a loss that no other can understand unless they have "walked the path of pain" that comes with losing a loved one. Words spoken freely from the heart, not quoted from a book have more of an impact on a man or woman who needs to hear that someone understands. Only those who lost a spouse can know the devastation of that loss. Those facing the loss can only understand this devastation from someone who has been there. Only those who have lost a child can understand the pain. Only those who have lost a parent, young or old can understand the pain. Only those who have lost a sibling or a best friend can understand. And those living with the threat of their own death can understand when they hear their own fears through those who face it themselves. This support given to each other is the strongest force behind the healing of a loss. To reach within yourself, to help others who are experiencing or have experienced the same loss is the greatest source of healing. For all those who visit this extraordinarily beautiful site and for those who will visit GROWW.... I pray for your comfort when you discover that the echoes of their heartbeat continues on with the spirit of love that remains alive eternally. Judy Divers - President of GROWW, Inc. Widow of William Divers, who lost his life to cancer, 9/4/92, it is for him, to keep alive his legacy of life and love that GROWW exists.

I just found your website for the first time and I am overjoyed. My mother passed away 8/12/97 very suddenly from pneumonia and my father, my sister and I are overcome with grief. This is the hardest thing I have ever had to live through and seeing my father hurting is killing me even more. Please share with my family any advice you might have on getting through this. I'm very interested in grief councelling, grief support groups, grief therapy, etc. Also, after reading about your book....I'm going to buy it for my father for his birthday 12/10/97.

What a wonderful service to all of us who need to put our pain into words in order to heal. I lost my middle son Michael at age 21 on June 26, 1995 from an undiagnosed illness (pancreatitis). Our family will never be the same but we believe that we will see Michael again and long for a message from him to ease the agony of waiting for our reunion.

I lost my most precious 4 year old son Sean this summer to drowning. I think I have been so full of guilt and anguish that I could not have received a message even if there has been one. I am going out to try to find your book today the day before Thanksgiving. I really hold on to this idea (new for me) that there are no accidents. Especially because I have spent so much of my grieving energy feeling guilt for my son's death. Thanks for your website.

I want to begin my saying how truely sorry I am to each of you who have lost someone. I honestly believe that it is the hardest thing one could face while on this earth. I lost my soul mate, the love of my life, my best friend, in February of this year. I am lost and scared. I resent it when people say everything happens for a reason, I can't find a way to justify the loss of Donovan. I guess I've formed my own adaptation to that phrase-since it did happen, I need to take what I have learned and help others in life by sharing the love that was so generously shared with me. I have worked so hard to not allow my life to be a waste too. But it's hard. Sometimes I just want to give up. I just want to be with him. I have not read any of the mentioned books. I'm searching for answers, for peace, for a sign. I miss him so much. Donovan was so magical. He changed my life. He opened my eyes to the beauty of this corrupted world. He showed me true love and gave me hope. He helped me to realize that I am a strong person, I would never have made it this far if he didn't teach me so much about myself, about him, about life and love. I would love to talk with anyone who needs to talk. I have a big heart with lots of love. Please feel free to e-mail me, I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Take care. Much love, Angie Hepner. I love you Donovan.

My son Rich passed over into the spiritual world this past June the 8th. Being the only child that I have know and raised (my first son was adopted out) my life has been at a great loss without him. It is very comforting to have this website to share ADC's with other people. I have had many from Rich and each time it happens it helps me to cope with my sorrow. He sent me his first one the day he was buried by sending a rainbow into an almost cloudless blue sky. I knew as soon as I seen it it was a sign from him. I have just finished reading a very good book about ADC's by Joel Martin entitled Love After Life. I would recommed it for anyone in our situation.

My Son the Angel ^I^ © On Sunday, July 20th, 1997, my son was struck by a car while riding his bike. He was a mere 8 years old. On Monday, July 21st it was determined that my son was brain dead. As I sat at the hospital waiting for them to decide if there was any hope for him, I knew in my heart that he was already gone. I then realized I had a choice to make, whether or not I should donate his organs to others? As I sat there it seemed only natural to let him live on through the lives of others. I suddenly felt a sense of peace about me I never knew before. I was able to answer the prayers of others through my tragedy. Thus creating miracles for others, I then new that this was part of my mission as a practicing angel. My 8 yr old son taught me more in his life than I have learned in my whole existence on earth. When I arrived at home after they declared him dead, I lit a religious candle and placed his picture on the mantel. As I sat there and looked at his picture the most amazing thing I have ever seen occured. A bright halo of light formed around his head in the picture, giving me a warmth, of comfort . . . all around me. It was then I knew my little Angel Son was on his way to Heaven back to the arms of God. When people ask how to help I merely requested they pray for the families recieving the transplants. As I was doing. The day of my Angel's funeral I sat down and wrote him this poem in honor of his life. MY ANGEL SON My life was in shambles and falling apart, You came into my life and created a brand new start. You gave me hope where I felt none, You were my beautiful little angel son. Though our time here together was so little, You warmed my heart like the sound of a fiddle. Your smiles so big it could make someone blind, You are my little angel and my sunshine. You gave so much to all you were able to touch, Everyone couldn't help but love you so much. You will always be in this mother's heart and soul, The love I have no one could understand or know. Back to Heaven is where you, must now go, Though I will miss you I know it is so. Bless us my angel son so bright and pure, You will walk with God, this I am sure.

Hello everyone. I have had many ADC experiences with my sister who died in 1988 at 37 of hodgekins disease, my niece (her daughter) who died in August 1996 at 21 and my grandmother who died in 1994. As a matter of fact I just had a visit from my sister last night. She came into my grandmothers kitchen, through the door and gave me a hug and kiss on the lips. I studied her face to see if it looked the same as I remembered and it was exactly as I did. We held on to each other. My other living sister was there and I said to her, "Marie don't you see Carmella?" and "Carmella, my deceased sister said, "No, she can't see me". This was REAL. I believe if we just open ourselves up to the notion that it can happen, eventually it will for you and when it does you WILL know it. Another living sister, Pat, has unusual ADC experiences. She receives dream ADC's from very famous people. She has been visited and received messages from John Lennon, Gilda Radner, Lucille Ball and very recently, Princess Diana and many more. We don't know why she has these visits, we figure she is a strong conduit for such communications. The messages I'm sure mean something for someone. From Gilda, her message was for Gene Wilder. Maybe this is how we can get it to him. They are really incredible. I have encouraged her to write them down. Anyway, please keep up the good work and we'll be in touch (in more ways than one).

My 19 yr. old son, Kyle, was killed in a car accident on July 17th of this year. Reading your book was one of the things that kept me sane. I knew I had been feeling Kyle's presence but thought I was going mad. We have a light fixture in one of the rooms of our house that has two light bulbs in it. Quite often one of the lights would flicker on and off. I tightened the bulb. It still continued to happen. I replaced the bulb. It still continued to happen. It seemed to happen often when I was at my very lowest point and would ask Kyle to help me. One day when the bulb flickered off I left that room to go and get water to wash the floor in that room. When I came back upstairs and got to the door of that room the light was still out. I said "So Kyle, you're still here with me". The light went on, stayed on for a few seconds and went off again. I have also had very vivid dreams where I know Kyle is trying to let me know that he is ok. Thank you for your book. I have bought one for a friend who has recently lost her fiancé in a car accident and I plan to read mine again. You are truly friends.

OUR MOM HAD CANCER, SHE WAS RELEASED FROM THE HOSPITAL ON A SATURDAY, AND (ME MY SISTER LIVED 5 MINUTES AWAY FROM OUR MOTHER, WE THOUGHT THAT SHE WOULD BE OKAY UNTIL THE MORNING, BECAUSE ON THE WEEKENDS WE WERE WITH OUR MOTHER UNTIL HER BEDTIME, ON THE WEEKDAYS MY SISTER WOULD BE WITH OUR MOTHER IN THE MORNING AND ME IN THE EVENINGS,) WELL WE THOUGHT THAT SHE WOULD BE OKAY UNTIL 6 AM, WHEN MY SISTER ARRIVED SHE FOUND OUR MOTHER DEAD ON THE FLOOR. YOU CAN'T IMAGINE THE GUILT WE FEEL ABOUT LEAVING THE WOMAN WE LOVE TO DIE ALONE. I TRUELY BELIEVE IN AFTER DEATH COMMUNICATION, I JUST PRAY THAT OUR MOM WOULD COMMUNICATE WITH US SO WE CAN SAY MOM WE ARE SO SORRY AND WE LOVE YOU. HOPEFULLY ONE DAY WE WILL GET PASS THIS DEEP PAIN.

My son Michael Lee Walker Jr. Died Aug. 5, 1996 he was 18 at the time. I was in such a state of shock that everyone keep putting pills in my mouth to keep me out of it. You see Michael was my second son to die. His brother Billy died 2 3/4 hours after birth (1975) and I guess I went a little nuts. Michael was also my best friend. We shared a special LOVE. All his friends called me mom, and I always had a house full of boys. Everyone felt I would lose it this time for sure. But Thanks to God and his help I have made it. You see the night of receiving friends and family I was in bed crying my eyes out and heart totally broken. my touch lamp came on. The first time it came on I thought I never turned it off, the second time I was scared to death and told my husband if it came on again I was getting out of the bedroom. The third time it came on I started to get out of there when a peaceful feeling came over me and I knew then who it was. I told Michael good night baby, I love you. I held his hand in mine the rest of the night. The next day I made it through the services with a smile on my face. I know people thinks I am crazy but I had a peace that know one on this earth could have given to me except God. The police said my son committed suicide. But I know that he was shoot in the back of the head. I have gone to see a well known Phychic Named Bobby Drennen. He also said that it was an accident. Michael still comes and comforts me when I need it most. Thank you for this wed site. I know now that I am not crazy.

Just happened upon your website via Romanowski's website. I have heard of your book before but have not read it as of yet. Once I finish reading the 5 other books I'm reading now I'll hopefully have time. I have always believed in ADC's, since my earliest memories. My Mom & Grandmother told me of theirs or those experienced by other family members since I was a child. After my Grama's death in 1991 I actually questioned if she loved me. She came to me 3 times to let me know that, yes, indeed she loves me. My Mother, my best friend, was misdiagnosed a director of pathology for a California hospital in 1991, which led to her death on October 13, 1995. She died in my arms, my fingers on her wrist feeling her pulse & life slip from this world to the one parallel. I was in absolute agony over her death. I miss our talking, laughing, shopping, cooking, experiencing life together. But, the one thing I missed the most was her hugs. Two months after her death I took a walk out in the woods behind my sister's house, feeling so totally lost & alone that I wanted to die, to just be with my Mom again. I stood there in the middle of the woods, totally dark with snow all around, crying & yelling at God then, crying & talking to my Mom. After I was finished talking I "said" to my Mom that the one thing I really missed was her hugs, an incredibly warm, safe feeling of a loving embrace totally surounded me & held onto me until I was able to calm down & walk back to the house. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that my Mom was hugging me then, just as she is with me all of the time. I have been guided through some incredible pain and wonderous experiences, thanks to my Mom & all my other loved ones. They are just right next to me & they will never, ever leave me. Sometimes, it's just a little hard getting used to a different way of communicating with them. But, I KNOW they're there, by God's grace. And, sometimes they're learning, too, a "different" way of communicating with us. For those of you who ask if there is concrete, possitive, scientific proof that ADC's & the like are real or not, the answer is yes - The millions (if not billions) of people on this earth who have experienced similar experiences. The answer is faith.

Our daughter Jaime stepped into Heaven on November 27, 1994. She was only 3 years old, the youngest in a set of twins. She has given me several adc gifts, including seeing her in the doorway to my bedroom, coming to me in several "dreams" that I knew were not dreams but visits, and audibly hearing her giggle or call my name. These are blessings from above that not everyone believes. I'm glad to be able to know that there are people who do believe my experiences, and people such as yourselves who have worked to get the word out. Your book as well as others have given me "permission" to know in my heart what is real, so I can accept the gifts Jaime gave me from Heaven.

I really do not know anyone who has died, so I can't give any accounts of talking with someone directly who has died that I know....however, I DO believe in this concept. IIn 1992-the present, I have heard noises in the house that made me believe that someone was there besides me, and my family members were not present at the times....I don't know exactly what it is......

Five yrs after the death of my grandfather he contacted me, on a phone that was not hooked up. He wanted me to warn my father (a car salesman) about driving a vehical to be specific, my grandfather said "THAT TRUCK!" and to pass on his love. I told my father & he thought I was crazy, like I knew he would. I felt like dad wasn't listening so I called my grandmother & told her, knowing she would make him pay attension. Well she did and that same day I told my grandmother, a man came into the car dealership to trade in his TRUCK for a new one. Trade-in's must be driven, & it dawned on my father, truck-don't drive. He called the machanic to look it over while the man browsed the new cars lot. The machnic found that something in the connection between stearing wheel & the axel like a pin had come loose. With out this pin the vehical would not have turned. My dad listens to me know when I have any warnings to give out--no madder how crazy it seams.

Our beautiful son committed suicide Oct. 1, 1997. He had suffered from depression off and on, but seemed to be doing really great. Our Japanese exchange student was murdered at the Concord, CA. BART station 4 years ago. He had been with our family for more than a year. Our son was in France when Masa was murdered. Josh suffered such depression after this. It is so difficult to understand that he is gone. At his memorial young and old told loving stories of him. He always was there for everyone. He wrote beautiful sensitive music and had such a haunting voice. He touched so many lives. He just couldn't get over losing the love of his life and seeing her with someone else. My days have no beginning or end. I know he is in a peaceful place now and not hurting anymore, but we miss him so much.

I lost my daughter on October 9th. Within hours I knew that our estrangement was over, finished, and that she knew all the factors which led her mom and I to divorce. It is still sad, but she is well and happier than seh can remember.

My daughter, Jordan, was killed on March 23, 1997 in a car crash. Her friend Craig was killed also. While devasted by her death, I was comforted by the fact that she was with a friend when she died and that I have always believed in life after death. I have had little signs that she is with me, but I really want to see and talk to her. I have had "dreams" that I am not sure are dreams or that I have actually talked and hugged her. I look forward to any books you write in the future on this topic.

I haven' read your book, but will now, now that I found this web. You see I lost my oldest son, Buddy to a motorcycle acc ident June 9th 1994. Buddy was an avid motorcross souped up dirtbike rider. The 9th 0f June 94, Buddy and a friend(J.D.) of his little brother BillyJack went to Ebo to check out the hills and to have fun.You see J.D. came back with buddy's truck alone. J.D. said Buddy was going too slow and got hurt, We needed to call the hospital. They took him to St. Louis University Hospital.He never regained consciousness.J.D. said Buddy was going too slow up the hill that when he got to the top the bike kicked back and went back down the steep hill,as the bike went down the hill the back tire hit him in the helmet 3 times splitting it each time. Buddy was in a coma for less than 2wks. BillyJack would have gone with them but he had went on a trip with school to Chicago and would'nt be home til Sun. As I got to the Hospital that last day of his life, I ran in his room and said "Bubba, it's alright Momma's here. He let out a sigh and then he was gone. The year he died, he would also have been age 25 that Christmas Eve. So now every time that holi- day comes around I'm usually a space case.God, we miss him so terribly much. Buddy was a good kid. He graduated St. Charles High School in 1988.Went on to Electrians school, and became that electrician,apprentice and journeyman. Needless to say he left his little brother well off. And now Buddy would be so proud of BillyJack,cause he's a senior now and will be graduating this June on Buddy's death anniversary.Theres not a day that goes by that we don't think of him or say something about him. People say leave him go, but you know something THEY ARE NOT IN OUR SHOES!He'll be with us forever. BUBBA WE LOVE YOU.

I've just completed reading the book and passed in on to a coworker. I want to thank the Guggenheims for having the courage to conduct such studies and write the book. It takes courage to speak out in such a cynical, clinical world such as ours. Your book has encouraged me to once again take up meditation in the eventuallity that I may once again experience my unfailing friendship with my departed friend Michael. Peace, Leigh

Please, to anyone who might have lost their love and beloved to suicide, email me. I tried to post a message on the message board but it didn't work. My other posting is below, about my soul-mate Michael and his suicide. I have had 2 other significant ADC's that I would like to share. I feel isolated and alone, and am hoping someone will respond.
