Shirley Y. is the medium that I love the best. Some mediums are also psychic, and want to tell you what lies up ahead. I don't want to know that....I only want to have my loved one's spirits visit me. Shirley is great at that.
Audrey and I visited her together for one hour. Shirley started with a prayer to God the Father...
The first spirit to come was my Grandmother Altrui...oh! but wait! Here comes my dad!! First he talks to me...he tells me that I need to be at peace with getting older, not like he was on earth. He confessed that he didn't like getting old and losing strength. He didn't like not being able to do the things he used to do. He mentioned that he knew I had concerns with my health, but not to worry as they were not serious, but things to do with old age. (Shirley asked if I was alright and I told her I had a Dr's appointment in two weeks)
Shirley is laughing..."Your dad is singing to Audrey!" Dad started out talking to Audrey by singing "You are my Sunshine". He then congratulated her straight A's and graduating (from Jr High). He mentioned that I was disappointed that none of my immediate family were musical. He told us that Audrey's voice was maturing and would be beautiful...she should join the chorus. Also that she had chosen a hard instrument (violin) and should perhaps try a simpler one like the ukulele.
Dad continued talking to Audrey...he likes her 'gentle, loving spirit'; she has a clear sense of her future field with professional goals, but cautions that 'she doesn't know, what she doesn't know'. He continues that it will be while she is in college that she finally decides on a career. "Her heart will open to it".
Next Dad tells Audrey to "make her own choices concerning her career and college". He tells us that he sees things differently now on the other side, and wishes he knew better while on earth. (I am thinking that he means Michael's dream of music; also that he pushed me toward the convent)
Shirley then tells us that a young person who died in a bike accident is coming through. Audrey and I can't think of anyone. (After talking to my daughter, Brandie tells me that it is Audrey's cousin Eric who came through.)
Next my grandmother came through. When she said the one that was short and 'round' I laughed and said both. She clarified by saying the one with diabetes; that would be my Grandma Anna. She told me and Audrey that she had the gift of natural healing and intuition, and that she passed it down to both of us. It means that people like to talk to us and tell us their problems, and that by just listening we help them to heal and feel better. Intuition means that we get a feeling about something and need to listen to it. (Audrey told me later that at the end of her summer camp the counselor tells each camper something about each one that she admired. She told Audrey that she was a good listener.)
Grandma Anna continued that she understands that I am struggling with 'spirituallity' and 'religion'; and that it's OK. Dad piped in that I am on the right track and that it's all different than what we are taught on earth. Shirley asked if I knew what they were talking about and I replied, "Reincarnation".
Shirley then started to smile and said, " I see all of your dogs; you had a lot of German Shepherds! But here is one saying hello that isn't. I laughed, "He's our one black lab". Well, they all want to say "Hi!" Shirley gets serious and says, "I see your dad holding a raccoon! Was it a pet?" Audrey starts laughing..."I have it now, mom gave it to me." Your dad has a message: "I do remember." Audrey and I both gasp...and we tell Shirley: When Brandie was little, her grandfather gave her a raccoon puppet, and she held it dear because her grandfather gave it to her. When Audrey was 2 my dad visited; when Brandie showed him the raccoon and told him she sleeps with it every night, he told her that he didn't remember. That's when she gave it to Audrey. (When I told Brandie that he remembers she cried...)
The next message was a bit hard to understand. Grandma Altrui was back holding a rolling pin which she kept hitting against one hand. (I seem to remember her doing this with wooden spoons when she was on earth.) Oh, and she was also skating.! Shirley says the skating represents "freedom" and she seems to be telling us to not always do what we are told to do but to find our own way. The rolling pin was indicating someone in my life who was harsh and blustery, trying to tell me what to do. This person was all hot air; be patient with her and she will come around. Shirley asked if it described someone at work; I told her no, my sister.
Before my trip to Lily Dale, I asked my girlfriend Sharren to visit me. She died 20 years ago and I still miss her. She was more like a sister to me; we could talk about anything and everything. Shirley told me that my girlfriend was here and that she says "I can still talk to her"!
The rest of the messages were for Audrey. Shirley told her that two grandmothers on her dad's side of the family were here. First Grandma Doctor, who told her that this summer she would have to make a 'choices'. "Just look ahead and use a simple strategy". Her verification was a stuffed dog that Audrey had wanted while shopping and Grandma made sure she got it. Then her "dad's, dad's mom" came and gave Audrey "lots of love". She also told her that when she was young and played with all of her dolls, Grandma played with her.
A young man stepped forward next, "a friend of Audrey's mother". He died right after high school. Shirley looked at me for verification, but I didn't remember this. Shirley added that he was a good friend, but not a boyfriend. (After the visit I called Brandie, who knew right off that it was Chris who had died. She added that she always felt guilty because she didn't go to the funeral.)
We were now close to the end of our hour visit, and Shirley asked us if we had any questions. Audrey reported that she feels someone with her; a male, wears a hat and long dark coat with something shiny on the leg. Shirley closed her eyes, smiled and said it was a young man from the civil war. He is her distant relative. Audrey asked why he would be following her around. Shirley told her that she sees a younger man with him, either a son or brother who is deaf. He is with Audrey, to help keep her on the path to becoming an interpreter for the deaf.
So that ends another visit to Lily Dale!
