Hi there ParSal190, I know exactly where you are coming from! I have the same thoughts myself about my husband. He is the one person who truly understands and supports me (I take medication for OCD) so it is important to have someone like that who understands. He takes meds for bi-polar disorder. Funnily enough i have been interested in the afterlife ever since being a little girl. I don't know why. I was very religious as a little girl (bought up as a catholic) i loved going to church and looking adoringly at the statues but at the age of 16, i got into wicca. Then i went on to the protestant church after that in general. My husband jokes that he doesn't know which religion i will choose from month to month!!! I have read lots of books concerning the afterlife and near death experiences. I am fascinated by them. But something happened to me a few years ago that cannot be explained away. I found my neighbour in her home after she'd had a stroke and was taken to hospital. I found out later by her relations that she had died at the exact moment i had this experience. I was in my bathroom and suddenly the smell of cigarette smoke wafted in (she used to smoke). It couldn't have come from outside as i was too high up and my neighbours didn't smoke. I felt more than heard, 'Joyce has died'! I knew when she died precisely. That spooked me out. Was it her or an angel, i don't know! But someone was bothered enough to tell me. Now you may think, wishful thinking, as she was a close neighbour but as people we weren't close at all. We had nothing in common except that i was her neighbour since i was a little girl but she had become very bitter over the years, never having married, i feel. I have no concrete answers to give you except that some NDE's are very interesting especially when people say that they saw relatives in another room and described their colour of clothes etc or saw a shoe outside on a roof and it was later verified. Hope this helps Godbless Nutkins
