Heard my name called

After my dad passed my mum and me were devastated. Pushing ourselves to go out we ended up at a psychic fair. As I was walking past a tent a woman called out and said a man close to you who’s passed wants me to tell you he can do much more for you from where he is now than ever he could before. She then went back to her customer.
Several years later , two days before my baby was born unexpectedly and a month prematurely ( I was excited thinking it was a boy) my father came in a dream and said it’s a girl but don’t worry you will be thrilled, and I was. I was glad of those two days to adjust to the idea.
Also when I gave birth my mother who was alive had terrible period pains ( after menopause) so bad she went to bed. Then it dawned on her I might be giving birth early.
40 days after my grandmother passed I had a dream of a couple smiling and talking about me from across a room. Eventually I realised it was my granny aged 30. I went to go to her but she stopped me. Then I heard her say look how young I am and happy with your GF. My grandfather looked thrilled to see me. I never met him because he passed. It was as if she wanted him to see me.
Sometimes I hear my daughter call my Amr so I ring her.
If I think about my mother I get a text soon after. If I think about her I often get a text too.
I don’t think it’s unusual in Scotland.

what lovely stories, all true I'm sure. Its great that you are sensitive to others needs, Trendynannie6. & your experiences are so intriguing! I'd love to hear them.

Once my neice, just after her second birthday, was in the back seat of my parked car as we waited outside a shop. I noticed she was smiling and waving out of the window. I asked her who she was waving at and she answered, 'My daddy'. She was very happy.
He had been killed in a climbing accident two days before.

my mum died nearly 50 years ago now.

I have heard her call my name, not recently though

but now, I sort of "know/feel/sense" use what human/physical words you will, but I feel my mum sort of guiding me, not telling me what to do, but I know she is watching over me.

now my dh died, very recently, I have "sensed" him here , not when I was sleeping either, as some sceptics would say,, my friend, who was close to both of us, has also sensed him sitting in the chair....... so it isn`t just me...

our youngest son, to whom my dh was very close, was the first person to get to the hospital after we had been told that my dh had died suddenly and unexpectedly... he sat with his dad`s body for over half an hour... his dad was with him, peace and closeness .. calm and beautiful time they both had together before I arrived with our older son and dil.

I have heard my name called a few times and for sure it was my mom and her actual words was S..... I`m fine love honest.
And my dad called my name and I really felt him by me.
Dad was in the daytime and mom during the night and I woke up crying my eyes out.

I love threads like this too kryptonite n Spabbygirl that’s why I decided to put it up, but I did also consider before posting that not everyone had heard,Seen, sensed, smelt. Or experienced these things, and the last thing I wanted to do was to upset anyone, I’m really glad I did now as so many people have experienced things too, and if I’ve helped just one person to feel that they weren’t going mad, then that makes me happy, incidentally I’ve had many many experiences over the years since a child but I won’t be putting them on here,

Ive had a few strange experiences. I have seen a cat sitting on the landing - so real that I went to stroke it. Ive seen a dog walking across the landing in my home now. My sons have seen doors move. When my Father in law died I was in his house working on his computer and I felt him behind me. I said to him that it was ok as I knew what I was doing. Then I could smell him. Later we ( I was with my sons then who were quite small) could hear what seemed like moaning. That was when we left - pretty quick. I have felt someone sit on my bed and stroke my hair - this was not long after my Dad had died, and then I saw him at the end of my bed which he walked round and went through a door and up stairs. I asked him not to go but he kept walking upwards. Ive not had anything recently which is a shame as my Mum died in 2016 and I would like to have had something from her.

Both my parents died over thirty years ago, within a year of one another. A few days after my mother's death, my youngest daughter who was about eight years old, told me that Grandma had come and sat on her bed, during the night and asked her whether she was allright, then gone away. My elder daughter who slept in the same room remained asleep and knew nothing of it.

Occasionally I do hear my mother's voice, just speaking my name, nothing else...but it's right beside me, as though she is within touching distance. I can't recall her voice when I'm awake, sadly, but in this sleeping state, when I hear her, I know without a doubt that it is indeed, my mother. It used to scare me in the early days, in case she was trying to warn me of something, however if it happens now, I just appreciate hearing her gentle tones once more.

I love this thread too, I know there is life after death, I have a photo of what looks like a cloud of mist in a house in which there was nothing and I believe it is a spirit. I've heard/felt similar too. I was upset when a local teenager committed suicide, I'm a social worker and could have helped her had I known. But she spoke to me and said she was ok & thanked me for my concern

I love threads like this. Brings such comfort. My mother used to say she could hear me moving about upstairs after I moved out! She has been in the same big old house now for nearly 70 years and there is nothing scary or creepy about it. It would be so wonderful if we could communicate telepathically with our special loved ones at will. Some say we do this when both think of doing the same thing at the same time. Has happened with me and my own daughter a few times now.

Many people experience hallucinations involving a loved one during grief and mourning.

Coconut, my cousin, who is a very down-to-earth person, had a similar experience. A customer he went to visit told him he could see a presence standing beside him smiling. The customer gave the name, and described exactly, an uncle my cousin had been very fond of. My no-nonsense cousin was completely unperturbed! I hear DF's voice quite clearly in some situations but it's inside my head and I think I carry him with me. It does bring me comfort though.

This has happened to me. Sometimes I smell my dad's baccy as well.

On the day of my mother's funeral - after a very long day - I drove home alone. Obviously I was thinking about my mother, and the cremation, and for some reason I spoke aloud 'But don't worry Mummy because that is not really you' - I meant her dead body. Then I switched on the car radio and it was playing Brahms Lullaby which was the piece I had chosen to be played as the coffin came into the crem. I felt it was a sign from my mother that she was still with me. Later on in the drive, I suddenly could smell flowers - so strongly that I twisted round in the seat, to look at the back seat, to see if I had brought any of the funeral flowers home with me - which I knew I hadn't! There were no flowers there of course but I felt that was another sign from my mother. I have never heard her voice again - except on old cine and video.

Allsaints55 thankyou, so glad to hear of your experience too, it’s wonderful isnt it, when I first heard my mums voice it was a calm calling of my name, as before she died her voice was in distress when she called me, so it was even more comforting to hear. Although obviously I wasn’t expecting anything: my dads voice however was louder in the voice he used when younger, not the softly spoken voice he had when Was ill before dying, I’m certainly not scared about dying, life goes on

Buffybee what a lovely experience

It happens in split second between sleep and awake, it is like your computer booting and you hear random noises.
I hear shouts, bangs and most prolifically the doorbell.
The brain is very complex and can create all sorts of scenarios, you should see some of my dreams.

One of my dearest friends was killed by a vile joyrider 2 weeks ago, she was a proper Aunty to my 3AC and they adored her, so all are very upset like me. My DD went for a pre booked appt with a Kinseologist and when the lady asked how DD was, she told her our distressing news. The lady then said, “is she a short woman with a blond bob ? “ DD asked how she could possibly know that, and the lady said” because she is standing beside you and wants you to know that she is ok” .....

My mother’s steadying voice during the day of her funeral.
I feel it was mostly me who kept everything going and everyone chipper.
But it was her who kept me going when I wobbled.

Many years ago I saw my mum at the bottom of my bed and I said "mum". The vision never moved suddenly I realised it was my maternal Grandmother watching over me from heaven, this has stayed with me my entire life.

It by the posts it seems common. Our local cancer care centre did some research on this some years ago.

I really would love to hear my Mum’s voice or feel her near me like others have. I miss her so much, and there is so much I would have liked to have told her but didn’t.

I have heard my lovely husbands voice a few times since he left me in December its as if he is still in the room, as though he is still here with me it is so comforting.

Haven't heard their voices but my dear Dad visited both my Mum and I after he passed - we both had a similar experience at about the same time of sensing/seeing him when in a relaxed state.

Trendy Nannie 6 . That was so good to hear your experience. I had gone on holiday to Spain shortly after my Dad passed away . In bed as clear as anything my name called in my ear . The name he used for me .It did freak me as I don’t believe in these things . But too much of a coincidence x

The night after mums funeral I was in bed sobbing. A really bright light appeared on the ceiling, then gradually faded away. I had an overwhelming feeling of peace. It was like mums last communication with me.
