Yes I've heard the sameI was reading somewhere that when a child dies tragically their spirit sometimes stay on as it's scared to move on or they just don't realise they are gone

My hubby heard it when he was working at the Queen Vic as an E.R. orderly.Nice story. Sounds like you have been sitting around 1 too many campfires
Would love to see photosMy hubby and I visited Port Arthur in the early 80's. I have some photos from that emotive place. Crazy stuff.
naughty grannyHave you even had tiny signs that someone you know that has passed might have popped in.
Ok I know someone of you are laughing but I believe it happens.
Today I was having a really busy day making desert cups for my daughters bridal shower , when I started thinking of one of my closest friends and feeling bad that she won't be celebrating with us due to her hubby passing away a couple of months ago very suddenly and unexpectedly. Then that got me thinking of him and feeling a bit sad . I then started singing Neil Youngs Heart Of Gold which was his favourite and played at his funeral when with in minutes it then came on the radio , I didn't think anymore and a couple of hours later , I was thinking I need to call my friend to arrange a catch up when a Bowies song that also played at his funeral came on. I took that as a sign that I really do need to call my friend.
Another time I had just lost my grandmother who raised me, she was only 72. I was sitting in my kitchen at 5am having a coffee , listening to the radio and crying. I whispered I wish I knee that she was ok I was imagining her in the morgue, and thinking my beautiful nan being by herself when all if a sudden her favourite song came on, Honey by Bobby Goldsborough the year was December 1991 and I never ever heard that song on the radio. What ever it was it took away the pain I was feeling.
My Nan was a strong willed lady and thus wasn't the only incident.
I had given her a wall clock that was light green and the last supper. The clock stopped working abd she took it to a local shop but they said it would cost too much to fix so she took it home and hung back on the wall as she loved the picture. She had removed the old batteries incase they leaked.
Well ...the day after she passed my uncle noticed that the click was working. There were 5 of us that saw this. I told them how she had taken it to get fixed and how she said she would take the batteries out.
We took the clock down only to discover there were no batteries in it, so how was it working and keeping correct time
The day of her funeral the clock stopped working and never worked again.
Now my uncle abd his wife were staying at my grandparents during this time, my grandmother really disliked his wife and every time his wife took a shower the water would go either really cold or scorching hot where she would scream. There were 8 people staying there at this time and it only ever happened to my uncle's wife . Was thus just a coincidence or something else.
And no, I'm not laughing,BUT I am smiling,because I do believe and I like believing that it's not the end when someone passes. And I know that not everyone thinks or believes this and that's okay too. Good on you Suzanne for bringing the subject up. I wrote on here a week or two ago about the time I visited my Dad's grave and when I was leaving after saying goodbye and that I loved him and was walking back to the car,I heard a noise and the vase had fallen over and not a scerrick of wind about. A coincidence,maybe,maybe not. Here's another story. After my older sisters funeral 15 years ago we all stayed at my Mum's house for the night. Well,at sometime during the night,there was a noise in the house that woke some of us up and started the dog barking. My Mum called out " What was that? " I called out it's alright Mum ,I'll have a look. I got up switched on the lights and began walking down the hall to the loungeroom and kitchen. Mum had quite a few pictures on the lounge room wall of my sisters,me,my Dad, aunties,uncles,nieces, nephews etc,etc Well,I kid you not,guess which picture had come loose and fallen into the floor.? A picture of my dear departed Dad in his navy uniform holding my older sister as a toddler. My sister whose funeral had been that day. Wow! It was scary, emotional, beautiful, unbelievable,all at the same time. Just saying.!!!naughty granny
