Hannah’s Questions

Hello Elisa!

My name is Hannah. I live on XXXX and I am 43 years old.

My 18 year-old nephew Miles was killed in an accident at the very beginning of 2008. I flew back out to the east coast to be with my brother Russ (Mile’s dad) right after it happened and I watch as the family grieved and I did whatever I could to comfort them.

Russ was/is my favorite sibling and watching him grieve like this was hard. Having kids myself (2 little girls), I was more than a little aware and sensitive t what it might feel like to lose a child. I regretted very, very deeply that I hardly knew Miles. I feel overly protective of my own children and often worry needlessly.

It is interesting to me how many different topics are part of the conversation.  Part of me wants to share with you how much I feel your loss. I can’t hear the story without grieving.

I remember walking through the house after Mile’s died and people were crying in the kitchen and the living room. The dog barked at nothing and nobody seemed to notice or care. I watch the door creak open on it’s own and I wondered.

Recently, Mile’s dad – my brother Russell died this March. He did not fight the cancer that came after his son’s death. I saw him before he left us and he was only really still here some of the time. He was lucid but his mind was elsewhere.

I am contacting you because I would like to talk to both Russ and Miles if possible. Mile’s sister India – she lost half her family in the span of a few years. I wonder if they have any messages for her and for Nina (Russ’s ex wife, mother of Miles and friend)

In addition, my mother Norma passed away a little over a week after Miles (January 8th 2008) and it would be great to talk with her, ask her how she is doing and find out if there is anything they would like for me to pass on to others.

So, for the sake of clarity –

Miles – 18 years old

Russ – 59 years old

Norma – 79 years old

Thank you. And do not feel as if you need to get to this if you are swamped with requests. I would entirely understand if it did not happen.

Best Regards.

Hannah

Channeling Transcript

Me: Now this next person is also a sweetie. Her name is Hannah. She’s 43. She lost her 18 year-old nephew, Miles, in an accident. She flew back to comfort her brother, Russ, who died form cancer at the age of 59 recently. Then, a few weeks later, she lost her mother, Norma. Basically, she wants to talk to Miles and Russ and see what they have to say. Mile’s sister, India, essentially lost half of her family in such a short period of time!

Jeannie: Erik has Russ with him and Russ wants to talk now.

Me: Oh, okay!

Russ: Tell her that she’s the strong one and always has been. After Miles left, I guess I really didn’t recover. I was just tired. And so, I made a choice to come and be with my son. I knew that if I had stayed, it would have been too hard and painful. Now, Mom wants to talk.

Norma: I agree, you were always the strong one, Hannah. You know you kind of held the family together even when you were not physically with us—in a different place. We always looked to you. You kind of took care of all of us. So, I also made the choice to leave, but it doesn’t mean I don’t love you. We’re together here, but we want you to live your life out.

Me: How about Miles. Is he there?

Jeannie: Her nephew. Yeah. (sigh) Okay. Here he is.

(Long pause)

Miles: You know, Dad used to talk about you, and he’d sometimes say I had a lot of you in me. So I always assumed that was a good thing. I admired you from afar.

Me: Was it your destiny?

Miles: Yes, this was.

Me: Why?

Jeannie: Well, it had to do with…Did someone hit him?

Me: I don’t know. An accident. That’s all I have.

Jeannie: It had more to do with someone else that was involved in this.

Me: To teach that person something?

Jeannie: Yeah.

Me: It probably was a car accident. I betcha it was a drunk driver, but I really don’t know. Maybe there was no one else involved directly. Maybe it was to teach that person about loss.

Jeannie: Well, it had to do with another person in some way. He says he actually lived a happy, pretty good life. So he says that’s just the way it was. It was his time.

Me: Any messages from any of them for Mile’s sister, India?

Jeannie: They say she only needs to know that they’re all okay, and we know that you’re going to be okay, too. We really, all of us, want to thank you, because you held it together even when you were just a kid. We all looked toward you. You’re the wise one, the responsible one, and the strong one of the siblings. So, we know that you’re grieving, but again, you need to know that we’re in a wonderful place here. Live your life, and live it with joy. That’s what we want.

Me: Aw, good. Now, what about Nina, Russ’s ex-wife? Any messages for her?  She’s the mother of Miles. She’s also a good friend of Hannah’s.

Jeannie: Wow, she’s a really wonderful, wonderful woman. Miles, he feels, uh, he wants to say something.

Miles: I’m sorry that I had to leave, but it was the way it was supposed to be. You know, you and I are so connected, and you need to know that when you have those feelings that I’m around, then I am. I’m really there! I want for you, I really want you to know that of course I’m okay, and that the only regret that I have is that you were so sad. So don’t be sad. I love you.

Jeannie: She thinks that she feels him a lot of times when she’s awake, when she’s busy doing something. He wants her to know that it really is him.

Hannah’s Response

Elisa,

Thank you so much… I am needing to sit with this for a few minutes before I really respond. I am sort of flipped out (in a good way). I will write a longer response later and I want you to know how much I appreciate this. I really really appreciate what you have done.
