18. Laura, something similar happened to me

Dec 2011

A very dear friend died because of breast cancer, and she came to me just as I was awakening a few months later. I heard her voice, very very clearly. When I got up I felt both stunned and profoundly soothed. The message, though, wasn't quite as clear. It was only that everything would be all alright, or something similar. The sound of her voice was the soothing part. I never really got down the wording.

I was really profoundly changed after that also. For weeks I felt like nothing could harm me and that I was insulated from emotional pain of any kind. I wonder if she was trying to tell me about life after death? I don't know. I distinguish that from a dream because of the profound feeling that I got, and because of........that voice, clearly hers.
