Hello Everyone
This is my first post. Like many others, I have viewed Talking Point for years, but only registered when my Dear Dad (Ad sufferer) died on 13th December 2006.
He died very peacefully, but suddenly, in his own bed at home with my Mum at his side. We gain much comfort by this at this terribly sad time - I'm not boasting about this as I know that for many AD suffers this is not an option because this terrible illness has progressed too far for them to remain at home.
What I wanted to do today, is to share with you a series of 'experiences' that both my Mum and myself have had following my Dad's death. Firstly, a clock fell off the fire-surround that was in front of a picture he had cherished. Then my Mum's electric bedside clock was flashing, then it stopped the following day, but then started flashing the day after - incidently she has two such clocks and the other was unaffected! Finally, my electric bedside clock (at a different address) started to flash, but kept the correct time. My Mum and I are convinced that this is my Dad trying to contact us, and we are so comforted by this. I firmly believe anyway that my Dad is acting as my Guardian Angel and I love to think that he is always with me, and often talk to him either out load or in my mind. This is helping me so much in my grief, although I know that everyone is different, and there may be many different opions about this subject.
Take care
