HI Mike,
Well, I am more than a little concerned about the fact that my husband's name is MIke, and the fact that I have a sister in Manhattan named Laura, will interfere with the impressions I received. But for what it is worth, here is how things went.
I felt like I was genuinely getting some help in this attempt. That was nice. I asked my helper friend to help me meet Stephen Lauria who died in the WTC attack. I saw a young man fitting the description you provided walking towards me, away from the site of the attack. The rubble was way back in the background, and this young man was walking toward me completely free of any pain or anything - indicating that he is not too badly affected from the event. He seemed completely fine and a nice young man. He had sandy brown hair, which I had thought you mentioned here but now I see you didn't.
He was wearing a grey suit, and gave me strong handshake.
I had trouble getting any firm bit of info, like a name or something that might mean genuine contact to you. I asked him how he referred to you - and I heard "Mike-ee" (but that is what I call my husband so who knows if that was my own subconscious or not). I asked him what he wanted to communicate to you and I had the sense of a sister.
Actually, three separate times I had the sense that he was trying to communicate 'sister,' I believe he meant HIS sister. (again, since I have a sister named Laura in Manhattan I wonder if this is my personal stuff surfacing). I couldn't get a name or even a sense of living or dead.
I asked if he had any pets. I had the strong impression of no pets passing with him (duh) and a weaker impression of no pets at all.
Two impressions that came unbidden -
One was the image of a woman - she looked like Cher or like the Mona Lisa.
The second was complicated - I think it was symbolic in some way. I had the sense that he had thought his death would serve a purpose. And then I had the sense that he had small outrage that so many died AFTER him in this event. As though his death DIDN'T serve a purpose if so many more needed to die in addition. The images were of him in an office, and then he was gone; then his boss, an older man, heavyset, approaching fifty - then his boss was gone; then a woman, a desk clerk, in the background, and then she was gone. My take on it was that after he died there were two more 'waves' of death, and he was upset that his death wasn't sufficient for whatever purpose this tragedy is about. (this complicated image may have come from your provision early on that he may have been where the first plane hit.)
Again, my main sense what that this young man was fine, and the strongest impression I received several times was thaty of 'sister.' I am curious if any of this resonates, I certainly hope it does though if it doesn't I am very sorry.
Love,
Patty
