I have had many experiences my entire life.

My lovely Granddad passed away last November. I was with him the day he died at the hospital and on that day around 2:45 I walked into the room after I took a break from crying all day. I stepped around the curtain and saw him fast asleep.  The nurses took his breathing mask off so he could slowly pass away peacefully.  I thought 'a

Aww wow, I haven't seen him look so peaceful since he came into hospital!! and shortly after he passed away. THEN a few days later I prayed and hoped he would come and let me know he was still around, on the Wednesday night after he passed I had a dream, I was in the exact hospital ward and the dream started with me walking around the curtain just like I did on the day he died, and I saw him there fast asleep, thinking 'wow I've never seen him look so peaceful!!!!' then instead of him passing away, he opened his eyes and let out a HUGE smile, he was glowing and just looked SO healthy!! I stood there thinking 'I thought you were dead!!!' then the dream just ended. In the morning I woke up and remembered the dream straight away!! I was literally so happy I was buzzing all morning and I went to see my Nan and tell her about the dream, then I told my dad and he said 'that's funny! I woke up with a picture of me and your brother on the floor next to my bed!!' (my brother also died) that was my first experience!

On the day before his funeral I was in my dads room printing out my speech for my Granddads funeral. I had my head phones in and put on some music to cheer me up. My dad and the rest of the family were watching a film downstairs. Then suddenly a shadow came over my shoulder as someone had walked up to me. It did make me jump as I was singing to myself...I slightly screamed then thought to myself in a split second 'oh its just dad coming to help me!! but why would he have literally just gone to watch a film!!' anyway I turned around to say hello to dad and tell him he scared me, only to find he wasn't even there. I went downstairs to tell the family what had just happened and then the lights started flickering as I mentioned his name. I am only presuming Granddad had come to check over me to let him know he was still there even though his funeral was soon happening.

The TV has turned on twice by itself and we've had a phone call late at night that would ring 3 times then hang up. The phone said it was a missed call from granddad's home number so my dad rung up to see if it was my nan calling (to see if she's okay) and she said she never rung.

One day I had a few photos I was cutting out in my Nan's house, in the picture was me and my granddad, I handed it over to my sister to hold and she placed it on the table. She then said 'I swear that photo just moved!!!' I then said 'where...?' I took a look at the photo then all of a sudden it started moving and turning its self around in front of our eyes!!! So comforting!!

The most recent experience was the other week where I had two cards on my side on top of this thing I had made at school, I went out one day and came back and the two cards were laying neatly on the table. as they had been placed there. I tried to do loads of experiments to see how they'd fall down like that otherwise and there was no way they could!! one of the cards were from my nan as well!!

Another experience before my Granddad died (this happened a few years ago) I was fast asleep in my room and then I randomly woke up at 2am, so I was laying there and then I heard my mums bedroom door open and I was like 'oh she's probably going to let the dogs out' and then she just walked into my bedroom and then said 'Turn your TV off its 2am!!!!' and I was like 'ehh what..?' then in the morning she comes up to me and said 'don't be stupid I know you had your TV on last night...' I then asked her why she thought my TV was on and she replied 'there was a glowing light coming out your bedroom, then it vanished as soon as I opened the door..I wondered how you turned it off so quickly!! I guess someone was watching over me :)
