Hi Morrighan,

I hope you continue to do well and feel better and to soon be back home and getting around on your own. 

I’m glad you brought this topic up as a conversation piece here.  When you mentioned it in our PMs I found it so interesting that your dad was an MD and also into healing, and pretty darn cool that you know and feel him with you.  I'm glad you are bringing it up here to chat about.

So since you invited, I’d like to know what it’s like for you to feel, know, or sense your dad’s communication.  Is it what you’d call feeling, or is it knowing, or what?  Or maybe you actually hear him??  Everything is possible.  I ought to know!  I’ve had all kinds of experiences of communication, the most awesome being when I actually hear just like physical hearing.  But I’ll take whatever I can get.  So, is SOB acting like a dad to you, is he getting on your case? LOL  Or is he giving you some pointers about PT that maybe your physical PTs aren't doing?  Nursing home PT can leave a lot to be desired.  Hopefully your are really good at what they do. 

I have a comment that’s along the same lines as your dad being with you through your physical therapy.  It makes perfect sense to me that he, as a physical therapy doctor, would of course be there with you.  When my very close friend Rob passed away, he died from some kind of rare pelvic cancer.  (I can’t remember the name of it).  Three years after Rob died of his cancer is when I was diagnosed with my colon cancer.  I can’t remember the exact time frame when Rob came to be with me through my cancer treatment, but it was probably I’d say soon after diagnosis is when I felt Rob’s presence, very very strongly.  And I mean it was that I just knew he was “with” me. 

I had of course thought of Rob often since his death because we were good friends and so close and I missed him terribly, still do.  But thinking about him and missing him and crying over him are not the same feelings as feeling his presence with me.  It was definitely a fact, to me, that he was with me.  I felt he was guiding me through my treatment, giving me his comfort and support, and to me that just had to mean I was going to be ok.  I felt confident and loved and just a general feeling of peace.  And when my treatment was over, I felt his energy presence “leave” again, so I assumed his caretaking of me was done and it was time for him to go do whatever and for me to get along on my own now that I was through it all.

Anyhow, thanks for letting me share that bit.  It’s still such a heartwarming memory for me knowing my old buddy was right by my side! 

You said you and your dad are in communication.  I didn’t have direct communication per se from Rob, or at least I can say that I wasn’t sensing it, was only feeling awareness of him and his presence.  And when you hang out with a dear friend whom you love and care about you definitely know what it feels like to be with them.  What it is is, you know what you feel like in their presence, and that’s what I felt with Rob.  The only more direct communication I got from Rob was 3 days after his death he came to me in an OBE.  I do love that I sense and feel energy though.  I feel very fortunate that it's such a strong sense. 

Hope your healing and recovery progresses quickly for you, Morrighan!
