Death of a Child

Last Night’s Dream

Last Night’s Dream

I meant to continue my transcription of the next segment of Erik and Kim’s last channeling session, but last night I had a vivid dream that was like any other I’ve ever had. I feel compelled to share it. Oh, okay, I also want to post it now before it slips right off my ever-shrinking…

Rob Reaches Out From the Other Side

Rob Reaches Out From the Other Side

One reader, a wonderful part of the “Channeling Erik Family,” shared two very comforting stories. The first: her son, Rob, communicates with her from the afterlife. My son Rob died of suicide on March 21, 2009. We talked with a psychic the following week – she was very good. She got Rob – there were…

Erik on Therapy and Past Lives

Erik on Therapy and Past Lives

First of all, I would like to thank everyone for all the love you’ve showered me with. I feel so honored to have each and every one of you in my life, because you are all so wise and enlightened. Sorry for the moment of weakness and know that your encouragement has lifted me up…

Jacob and Sandy

Jacob and Sandy

I’m so grateful to Sandy for allowing me to post a recent email she wrote. I found it enlightening, hopeful and healing. Moreover, her comments and hundreds of others I’ve received are a clear indication that we are on the brink of something big…a transformation, an awakening. People seem hungry to discover all that they…

Early Morning Visit

Early Morning Visit

Around four o’clock in the morning, I received a pleasant surprise–a visit from Erik. I was lying down on my left side facing away from the edge of the bed hovering somewhere between the sleep state and the wake state when I suddenly felt a presence behind me. In my peripheral vision, I could easily…

And Now for My Next Trick…

And Now for My Next Trick…

All I can say is, Erik, you must have a lot of time on your hands now! I love his little pranks because it so confirms his comforting presence. It’s nice to know that, in death, he has only shed his body, not his lovely personality and playfulness. Nearly every day, he does something to…

Erik, the TV Star

Erik, the TV Star

Just when we thought he had grown tired of his little pranks with our appliances, Erik strikes again…twice. His new gig…messing with televisions. His first TV appearance occurred at my eldest daughter’s apartment a couple of days ago. Sometimes she feels Erik’s presence when she goes upstairs to her bedroom at night. This apparently freaks…

Ask Erik: Essie’s Question

Ask Erik: Essie’s Question

My heart goes out to this next woman, because she and I share similar tragedies. Both our boys took their own lives very recently at the tender age of 20. Let’s see if Erik can help console and heal Essie as he has helped me. Essie’s Question Hi Elisa, Thank you for being willing to…

Teen Shit

Teen Shit

In this part of the channeling session with Kim O’Neill, Erik discusses self-esteem issues and delivers messages for his sisters and brother. Let’s begin. Me: What, other than past life issues, really affected your self-esteem, Erik? I mean, why? What happened to you? Erik, shrugging: Just typical shit. Typical teenage shit. Kim: Erik, could you…

Suicide: To Be or Not to Be

Suicide: To Be or Not to Be

I’ve had a number of readers submit questions to the Ask Erik column who are depressed. Many are in crisis, at a crossroads and in despair. Some are admittedly contemplating suicide. As a physician, my impulse is to help by giving them various resources and a compassionate ear. As a mother, my impulse is to…

Crisis of Faith

Crisis of Faith

The last couple of months have been difficult for me. I haven’t really felt Erik’s presence for what seems like an eternity. No sounds, no signs, no smells, no nothing. This paucity of evidence along with my ever-present tendency to analyze and doubt has begun to erode my faith. Yesterday, I had an epiphany about…

Finding Strength in the Dark Forest of Grief

Finding Strength in the Dark Forest of Grief

Many readers have commented on how strong I am despite having just lost a son. After all, can there be any greater travesty than the death of one’s child? For me, no nightmare is as grim. The grief is still raw and fresh like an open wound. Yet since my blog explores the “upside” to…

Ask Erik: Lauren’s Question

Ask Erik: Lauren’s Question

Mother’s Day looms in the near future like a dark specter taunting me. I feel so conflicted. On the one hand, I should be rejoicing that day. After all, I do have four wonderful children still here with me on the earthly plane. On the other hand, this is the first Mother’s Day without Erik…

Birthday Wishes From Heaven

Birthday Wishes From Heaven

My eldest daughter and Erik’s sister, Kristina, celebrated her 26th birthday on the first of May. The evening before, the entire family joined her at a new Indonesian restaurant to rejoice over the wonderful years we’ve spent with her here on earth. Firsts are difficult, though, and Kristina’s first birthday without her little brother is…

Ask Erik: Pascal’s Question

Ask Erik: Pascal’s Question

Erik has done so much to help us peons here on Earth. Oftentimes, our struggles compel us to flirt with suicide, so when Erik offers his wisdom and insight, it lights our way with hope and a newfound desire to continue our human experience, however trying and burdensome. The next several posts will include submissions…

Channeling Erik Through Felix Lee Lerma, Part Five

Channeling Erik Through Felix Lee Lerma, Part Five

And now (drum roll, please) for the final segment in my channeling session with psychic medium extraordinaire, Felix Lee Lerma. As always, comments are welcome. Erik wants you to quit beating yourself up over what happened. Yeah. He said you’re being hard on yourself. Well I think back on my last conversation with him before…

Channeling Erik Through Felix Lee Lerma, Part Four

Channeling Erik Through Felix Lee Lerma, Part Four

Before we begin with the next segment of my session with psychic medium, Felix Lerma, I’d like to make an announcement. Yesterday, I had a very short session with Kim O’Neill,, and I used that opportunity to ask some of the questions readers submitted through the “Ask Erik” page. I will post those transcripts soon….

Channeling Erik Through Felix Lerma, Part Three

Channeling Erik Through Felix Lerma, Part Three

I’ve been having a very hard time lately. It seems like I must work so hard to distract myself. Idle moments take me to a very dark and unhappy place. The images of what he looked like when I found his body, his blank and lifeless stare, the smell of gunpowder and blood in the…

Channeling Erik Through Felix Lerma, Part Two

Channeling Erik Through Felix Lerma, Part Two

And now for the anxiously awaited continuation of the channeling session with world renown psychic medium, Felix Lee Lerma. Let’s jump right it. Again, as before, Felix’s comments will be in italics and mine will be in plain text. Enjoy. Who’s Mickey or Mike? Mike? Mike is…I met two friends who also had children who…

A Message for Aunt Laura

A Message for Aunt Laura

Yesterday my sister, Laura, was driving past the cemetery where my son is buried. She said her usual greetings of love and longing when suddenly, this song began to play on the radio. It reminded her of Erik. Surely it was a message from him. Perhaps he wants us all to know he’s home. Many…

Erik’s Visit to Brianna

Erik’s Visit to Brianna

We’ve been blessed to have such wonderful neighbors on our street while Erik and his brother and sisters were growing up. One of the families we’ve been the closest to live right across the street. Although Erik was older than all of them, he was very fond of the now 16 year old twins, Brandon…

Channeling Erik Through Psychic Medium, Felix Lee Lerma

Channeling Erik Through Psychic Medium, Felix Lee Lerma

A friend tipped me off to Felix Lee Lerma, a young psychic medium living in San Francisco who apparently is very well-regarded, conducting readings for a number of celebrities and other famous people. I had to wait four agonizingly long months for my appointment to finally arrive. I’ll break my hour long session into several…

Soul Relay Race

Soul Relay Race

Recently, a news article was published in a British newspaper about a Croatian teenager who wakes from a coma speaking fluent German. She had never spoken that language before. Furthermore, she could no longer converse in her native tongue. Is this added proof that walk-ins are possible? If so, doesn’t this further substantiate the survival…

Life’s Work in Heaven

Life’s Work in Heaven

After these many months of having inside information about the afterlife, I’ve discovered how oddly similar Heaven is to the earthly plane. Aside from the fact that you have no body and have greater abilities to manifest what you want immediately, so may aspects seem the same. Discarnate souls can have homes, material possessions, and…
