Lee’s Question

I’ve tried very hard to contact my son or have him come to me in a dream with no success. I want so badly to believe in an afterlife and that I will see him again someday and would love any contact with him. I’m past 70 and live in West Palm Beach Fl. Instead of questions I would rather have Philip say whatever he wants to say. I appreciate your help– I’m trying very hard to believe in an afterlife- Lee

Channeling Transcript

Me: Okay, now let’s start with today’s Ask Erik questions. Uh, the first one is from Lee. She’s from West Palm Beach, Florida. She’s in her 70s. Anyway, her son, Philip, passed away at the age of 42 in Fairfax, Virginia. She wants to know what Philip passed from. Oh, and she wants to know if he has any messages for her.

Erik: Congestive failure.

Me: You mean congestive heart failure?

Erik: It comes from the heart not the lungs, so yeah.

Jamie: Did he have a heart attack?

Me: I don’t know. It can certainly come from a heart attack, though—a massive heart attack. It can come from drugs like a cocaine overdose, other stimulants; gosh, so many things can cause it, but a massive heart attack is probably the one that would be most common as an abrupt occurrence.

Jamie: Erik is saying it’s related to taking something internally and having the heart respond and dying from that. It doesn’t look like illegal drugs. Erik is showing me that it’s legal drugs that weren’t monitored well. He had a bad reaction to them.

Me: So she also wants to know what name he used ot call her.

Erik: Erik’s not here right now, but when I get in contact with him I’ll let you know.

Jamie: Did this just recently happen? He’s not even in the room.

Me: No, no. I don’t think so.

I was left so unrequited by this paucity of information that I conferred with another medium.

Session with Kim

Erik: Philip was VERY happy to return to Heaven. Very happy! And he never has to come back! He’s not going to hang around Lee much until she’s very close to passing.

Me (puzzled): Okay.

Erik: In other words, Philip will materialize and start helping Lee let go of this earthly lifetime by putting out his hand and telling her it’s okay to let go. They had a spiritual contract that was completed a long time ago.

Me: Any messages?

Philip: I’m concerned about a fall. This message is to prevent a fall. Please be careful when you go down a short flight of stairs; it’ll have two or three steps. Be really sure you look down when you walk down steps.

I continued to ask, plead really, for Philip or Erik or Lee’s guides to provide more information, but there was none to be had. This puzzles me and of course must be devastating for Lee. Why the paucity of communication? Is this a lesson unto itself? Lee, like so many of us, wishes for the comfort that a strong belief in an afterlife can provide. Perhaps the lesson is to have faith. Perhaps many of us must learn to trust our intuition, because clear confirmation isn’t always in reach of our trembling fingertips.

Dearest Lee, I understand the destruction that doubt wreaks on our fragile faith and desperate wishes. I battle those dragons nearly every day as they claw at my weary heart. But there are forces that deserve our trust and faith though they cannot be perceived by our limited human senses. They are not black and white, but their powers can be known and felt. One such force is Love. Can its existence be denied because clearcut evidence for it eludes our senses? Of course not. And on a deeper soul level, we know that Philip, Erik and all of our loved ones are looking at us from the afterlife, shouting in exasperation, “We’re here! We’re Home! And we will be together again for all eternity.”

Tomorrow is Erik’s 21st birthday. That’s all I want to say about that right now.
