On wednesday afternoon i went to see my Gran in the chapel of rest. This is the first time i have ever gone to see someone who has passed away, so wasn't sure what to expect. I just felt the need to see her, mainly as she always had looked in pain when i saw her before she died.

My husband went with me. We were going to go in on our own so we could say a few things but when we got there we were just led into the room. I was quite shocked by how i felt when i saw her. I had this overwhelming urge to run out. I said to my hubby, i shouldn;t be here, its not her, its not her!!

I could tell that my gran was no longer there in the shell of her body. It felt so vacant and expressionless. My hubby said a few words and did cry, but i just stood there stunned.

Then all of a sudden i could see her how i knew her, i felt the warmth around me and loving memories filled my head. I just felt as if my spirit guides were helping me understand and feel better. I said to my hubby, i half expected to see her sit up and ask for a cup of tea. The weird thing was, i was convinced i could see her move. I kept being drawn to her hands and really thought i could see her fingers twitch. I know this sounds silly, but i really felt she was trying to let me know something, using her hands.

I really wanted to pick her up and hold her and cuddle her especially as she looked so small and fragile. In my head though i was being told, NO! Don't touch her! I know she would've felt cold so i didn't. I did cry after a few minutes whilst my hubby cuddles me. I did feel a tremendous lift of spirit and weight come off me. I have to say it was the best thing for me to do. Plus i don't remember how she looked when i first walked in the room, only as i remember her when she was happy.

Thankyou spirit guides.

I am so glad your visit helped you with your greiving and how you'll remember your Gran, I am sure your Angels and Guides are looking after you well.
