Winter brings all kinds of unexpected surprises, some wonderful, some challenging, many are likely both! This winter brings upcoming death and a message from the spirit world together, to help me understand the space time continuum from the spiritual perspective.
My father is an old man, 90 years old this last summer, and he has Alzheimer’s disease. He’s been trucking along, moderately okay, considering everything, until this last week. My mother called me one night, “Your father’s been on the floor since 6:30pm at least. That was when I found him. Can you guys come over and help get him up?” It was almost 9:00 p.m., so, of course, we did. He was in much more pain than usual and couldn’t get up or to the bathroom without one of us on either side of him. The next morning, I went over before work to check on him, got him up and walking, and basically made sure that he was okay. I got my mother to make a doctor’s appointment just to be on the safe side.
A couple days later, I stopped by again, and learned from their caregiver that my father had not recognized my mother that morning. He knew he was married and knew her name, but he did not recognize her face.
That afternoon, his doctor had him hospitalized. It turned out he was very dehydrated and his kidneys weren’t functioning properly as a result. His doctor was kind enough to call. He told me he thought my dad might be in end-stage Alzheimer’s and that he might qualify for hospice.
I knew it would be a gift to my father to die. He doesn’t have much of a life here with Alzheimer’s. He doesn’t believe in an afterlife, so I ponder what that must be like for him, to be dying, and believe you’re just going to end up being compost.
I reached out to Shawheen, as my son, and having passed over, as one of my spirit guides, if you believe in such things. ‘Be there for him, Shawheen, he needs you.’
‘Of course, I’ll be there for him.’ I sensed him saying in my head. He must have sensed my quiet concern in the background of my mind that he would not be available for me when I needed him if he was there for my dad, because then I sensed, ‘I can be there for both of you, Mom, don’t worry. It’s like you are side by side for me. Spatial boundaries are different for us. From my perspective, there isn’t the same space between you, as there is for you. I can spread out my energy and be with both of you. It feels to me like you are side by side. It’s like that with time also. I can sense all time, at the same time. I don’t see past, present, and future like you do. I see it all. It makes it harder for us to help you all understand the ‘when’ of something. It can make it hard for us to make something happen for you in the time frame you are hoping for because time doesn’t exist for us like it does for you. So, I’ll be there for both of you, at the same time. You’ll never miss me!’
So, having my father in the hospital has been an unexpected surprise and it is certainly challenging. There have been wonderful parts also. My father is now hydrated and doesn’t need hospice yet. He’ll get home health services. I’ve also learned more about the spirit world. That is a miracle and I wanted to share it with you!
