The most wonderful gift from a friend.

Rate this Entry
I worked in a nursing home for 15 months and although it was hard work, it was the most memorable and sad and exciting time in my life.I became close friends with a few residents.I tried my best to help ease any distress they felt ,it was hard to see them so lonely and confused.My friend Emily was so lovely,Id sneak back into her for a little chat.I know now how much that meant to her .Just to have someone to listen to her and make sure she was ok,even if only for a few brief moments made her day.Im glad I could be there.
Anyhow,emily ended up in hospital and I visited her most days .Then I let almost a week pass without going to see her and on a friday I felt I needed to get over to her ,but I didnt get there.That night the most amazing thing happened........ Emily appeard to me while I was dreaming.She just materialised at the end of my bed.She seemed as surprised to see me as I to see her for a second ,then looked at her body and realised she had passed .We just smiled at each other and the love I could feel between us was indescribable.......Emily was glowing ,a beautiful light was shining through her whole being.I watched in amazement as she transformed maybe 40 yrs or so younger looking.She was so happy,her smile beamed, she looked so beautiful.I know how relieved she was and I was so happy for her.Then just as she had come ,she was gone.........faded slowly away from me but left me with the most wonderful gifts any friend could possibly give..........faith ,,hope joy and love......
I phoned the hospital the next morning and asked how Emily was and was told "Im sorry emily passed during the night"
I wanted to say YES I KNOW ,,,,,but bit my tounge
I feel like I actually witnessed her crossing over......if thats possible or not ?Has anyone ever had a similar experience or am i just a nut job lol.
