Hi. 13 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,959 Speaker 2: I'm Sandra Champlain. For over twenty five years, I've been 14 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 2: on a journey to prove the existence of life after death. 15 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 2: On each episode, we'll discuss the reasons we now know 16 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,759 Speaker 2: that our loved ones have survived physical death and so 17 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 2: will we Welcome to Shades of the Afterlife. On our 18 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 2: episode today, I'd like to share some powerful words by 19 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:19,559 Speaker 2: a mother, Carol Lorusso and the incredible signs she had 20 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 2: with her son Adam, also the terminal lucidity she witnessed 21 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 2: with her mother's passing, and more. And on our last 22 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 2: segment together, I have a very special meditation for you. 23 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 2: What if you could put on a pair of special 24 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 2: glasses and see your loved ones and how much there's 25 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: still a part of your life even though you can't 26 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 2: see them with your physical eyes. First, let me tell 27 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: you about Carol. She's the author of the moving and 28 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 2: hope filled book called My Journey into the Afterlife to 29 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 2: Find My Son. Now, Carol is an older lady and 30 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 2: she's new to do it interviews, so the sound quality 31 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 2: of the recording isn't good enough for me to play 32 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 2: for you. But the stories are just too incredible to 33 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 2: be missed due to a fuzzy audio connection. But if 34 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,959 Speaker 2: you'd like, you can see the whole unedited interview on 35 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 2: my YouTube channel. Just type in Sandra Champlain and you 36 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 2: can find my channel that way. But today I'd like 37 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 2: to read to you some of the most powerful words 38 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 2: she said, as this was an interview unlike anything I 39 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 2: had ever heard before, with all the signs she's received, 40 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 2: Carol's connection to the afterlife, like so many of ours, 41 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 2: truly began with grief. She shared with me that her 42 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 2: father was the first person she was deeply close to 43 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 2: who passed away. She was only twenty four and her 44 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 2: son Adam was just a baby. The loss hit her hard. 45 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 2: Carol told me, I lost a lot of weight. I 46 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 2: am five foot eight, and I went down to one 47 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 2: hundred and eleven pounds because it was my first heartache 48 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 2: with grief. And then I had a dream about Dad. 49 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 2: And in the dream, he was holding little Adam up 50 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 2: in the air, and he was younger and his face 51 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 2: was brightly illuminated. He was in my parents' living room 52 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 2: and he turned around and looked at me. He was 53 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 2: so happy, and I said, Dad, you're back. Promise me 54 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 2: you will never ever leave me again. Please promise me that. 55 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: He said, sweetheart, I'm here, I'm always watching over you, 56 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 2: and I will never leave you again. What a beautiful 57 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 2: and comforting dream. But Carol's connection didn't stop there. She 58 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,119 Speaker 2: was new to all of this, and like many of us, 59 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 2: she sought out more understanding. She was working in a 60 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 2: hospital at the time and her friends were all going 61 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 2: to see a local psychic. Carol said, I was talked 62 00:03:55,280 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 2: into going to see this psychic I sat down and said, 63 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 2: name is Carol. The psychic was actually quite wonderful. She 64 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 2: talked about my dad. She said, you have someone who 65 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 2: passed very dear to you. It's your father. He's formed 66 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 2: a protective shield around you. He loves you so much 67 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 2: that if somebody ever tries to hurt you, it'll bounce 68 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 2: off that shield and it can never touch you. That 69 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 2: beginning experience gave Carol a level of confidence, and then 70 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 2: some years later, her father in law Tim passed away. 71 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 2: Her boy Adam was just six years old, and once 72 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 2: again a profound comforting dream came to her. She told me, 73 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 2: in the wintertime in Massachusetts, my father in law wore 74 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 2: a navy blue wool hat, and outside Adam, with his 75 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 2: winter coat would wear a matching navy blue wool hat. Well, 76 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 2: in my dream, I walked into my son, Adam's childhood home. 77 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,359 Speaker 2: I walked into the first bedroom and I could actually 78 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 2: feel the blue sh bag rug under my feet. There 79 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 2: in Adam's bed was my father in law sitting next 80 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 2: to Adam. Adam was fast asleep and he had his 81 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 2: arms around him. And I said, Dad, are you happy? 82 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 2: And he said, Carol, yes, go back and tell them 83 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 2: I am happier than I've ever been. That one line 84 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 2: is powerful. Go back and tell them. It shows that 85 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 2: her father in law knew she was a visitor and 86 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: that she was there for a moment and had to 87 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 2: return to this world. As Carol told me, a psychic 88 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 2: friend later explained to her, you have the ability to 89 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 2: go to heaven and meet them in your dreams. You 90 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 2: think they're coming to you, But Carol, we go to them. 91 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 2: And that little piece of message was her proof. These experiences, 92 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 2: these vivid dreams and messages, Carol said, we're building a 93 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 2: foundation of knowing for her. But the next experience, she shared, 94 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 2: is a story of what we call terminal lucidity. Carol's 95 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 2: mom had suffered multiple strokes, and as Carol explained, my 96 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 2: mother's mind was gone. Carol said, she hadn't known my 97 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 2: dear husband, Paul or Adam, or myself, my sister or 98 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 2: brother in law, or their children for many weeks. Carol 99 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 2: was heartbroken. She wanted one more chance to connect, one 100 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 2: more moment to tell her mother how much she loved her. 101 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 2: She said, on a Saturday, I prayed to God and 102 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 2: to my dad all day. Daddy, if you can come 103 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 2: down and meet me from heaven and bring mommy back, 104 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 2: just for one more time. I need to tell her 105 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 2: that she was the best mom anyone could have had. 106 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 2: I need to be able to hold her and have 107 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 2: her understand the love that I appreciate she gave me. 108 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 2: So what happened next shows the power of love and 109 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 2: the reality of our loved ones and spirit. Carol said, well, 110 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 2: we walked into her hospital room, Sandra, and it was 111 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 2: a miracle. Mom was sitting up in bed. She greeted me, 112 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 2: she said, I love you. We hugged each other. She 113 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 2: then hugged Adam and Paul, completely recognizing them. This was incredible. 114 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 2: It wasn't a vague hello. This was a woman who 115 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 2: was unresponsive for weeks suddenly engaging in a complex, thoughtful 116 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 2: conversation about all the things we'd been doing. She remembered everything, 117 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 2: She recognized everyone, She expressed love. She even made a 118 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 2: joke about her son in law needing more light to 119 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 2: read his newspaper. The miracle continued. Carol said, that conversation 120 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 2: began and I said, you're the best mother a girl 121 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 2: could hope for. And she said, well, I've had two 122 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 2: wonderful daughters. My goodness, When I think of what's happening 123 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 2: in some families today. We have had a wonderful family life. 124 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 2: It was a joyful visited with memories. Mom was lucid. 125 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 2: After that beautiful, impossible visit, Carol went home and called 126 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 2: her sister Rita to tell her the good news, saying, 127 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 2: I think Mommy's going to be okay. I think she's recovered. 128 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 2: But the story takes a turn, one that proves just 129 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 2: how special that single visit was. Carol explained. Rita called 130 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 2: me later that evening and she said, I have no 131 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 2: doubt what you're telling me is the truth. I just 132 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 2: don't know how it happened because we found her as 133 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 2: before not knowing any of us, and in our future 134 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 2: visits before she died, she didn't know us either. This 135 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 2: is the key. The miracle was contained in that one 136 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 2: single visit. It's what they call terminal lucidity, showing that 137 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,319 Speaker 2: the mind isn't in the brain. It was a window 138 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 2: that opened up just long enough in direct response to 139 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 2: Carol's prayer to give her that final, perfect moment of 140 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 2: connection with her mom. This story proved what researchers are 141 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 2: now documenting, consciousness is not just a byproduct of the brain. 142 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 2: Carol's mother's brain was severely damaged, but her spirit, her essence, 143 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 2: was still perfectly whole. Carol later asked a psychic about 144 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 2: what happened that day. The woman told her, picture yourself. 145 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,679 Speaker 2: You climbed up the stairs to heaven in your spirit 146 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 2: and your soul. Your father's soul came down met you 147 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 2: in the window of the afterlife, and the love you 148 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 2: both had from mom brought her back well. Carol just 149 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 2: described that incredible, miraculous return of her mother's personality is 150 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 2: a well documented phenomena. Some hospice nurses call it rallying. 151 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 2: If you'd like to hear a lot of these stories, 152 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:54,839 Speaker 2: go back to episodes one, four, four, one seven to two, two, 153 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 2: two eight, and two three six. It's something that doctor's 154 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 2: and nurses have seen for centuries. A patient who has 155 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 2: been unresponsive, maybe for weeks or even years, due to 156 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 2: Alzheimer's or severe brain damage, will suddenly wake up, just 157 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 2: like Carol's mom. They become completely clear, lucid, and back 158 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 2: to their old selves. They'll recognize their family, share meaningful conversations, 159 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 2: and express love, often just a few hours or days 160 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,199 Speaker 2: before they pass away. For me, this is one of 161 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 2: the most powerful pieces of evidence that we have that 162 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 2: our mind is not just in our brain. How can 163 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: a person's personality and memories return in full even when 164 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 2: their physical brain is damaged beyond repair. It's a miracle 165 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 2: that shows us that the human spirit is whole, intact, 166 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 2: and just waiting to shine through. What causes it. We're 167 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,559 Speaker 2: not quite sure, but here are some beautiful words by 168 00:10:55,600 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 2: philosopher Pierre Tallard date Chardin. He wrote, Love is the 169 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 2: most universal, the most tremendous, and the most mysterious of 170 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 2: cosmic forces. Love alone is capable of uniting living beings 171 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 2: in such a way as to complete and fulfill them, 172 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 2: for it alone takes them and joins them by what 173 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 2: is deepest in themselves. We don't know exactly why terminal 174 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 2: lucidity happens, but we know it's real, and we also 175 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,839 Speaker 2: know that love is the force that can create miracles. 176 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 2: So this experience solidified Carol's knowing. She had proof from 177 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 2: her own life that love never dies, and this foundation 178 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 2: of knowing this certainty would be so important for the 179 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 2: journey that was to come, a journey that would test 180 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 2: her in a way. She could have never imagined that 181 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 2: being the loss of her beloved son Adam. When we 182 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 2: come back, all share Carol's words of the massive amounts 183 00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 2: of signs and evidence she received from Adam, proving that 184 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 2: our loved ones are always with us and just a 185 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 2: thought away. Also, I want to give you this thought 186 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 2: to ponder. Carol's story shows us how love can reach 187 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 2: through what is often called the veil. So during the break, 188 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 2: why not imagine that veil between this life and the afterlife. 189 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 2: How is it possible that they can see us and 190 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 2: we cannot see them? Are they part of our world 191 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 2: or are we simply part of theirs, just living behind 192 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:39,199 Speaker 2: a thin curtain for just a little while. What if 193 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 2: the only thing separating us isn't distance or time, but 194 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 2: just our perception. That question is exactly what we're going 195 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 2: to explore together at the end of our episode today 196 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:56,199 Speaker 2: with a very special meditation I have waiting for you. 197 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,719 Speaker 2: We'll be right back. You're listening to Shades of the 198 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,199 Speaker 2: Apple to Life on the iHeartRadio and Coast to Coast 199 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 2: AM Paranormal Podcast Network. Welcome back to Shades of the Afterlife. 200 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 2: I'm Sandra Champlain. Before the break, we heard the first 201 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 2: part of Carol Larusso's incredible journey. We heard about those beautiful, 202 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,559 Speaker 2: comforting dreams she had. In fact, she went on to 203 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 2: tell me later she's had more and more of them, 204 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 2: extremely vivid. And of course that story of the mother's 205 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 2: terminal lucidity. How just before dying, people even if their 206 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 2: brains have been completely shut down due to dementia or 207 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:02,199 Speaker 2: Alzheimer's or brain damage, can come fully back to life 208 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 2: just for a brief time, making such a difference for 209 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 2: the loved ones. This terminal lucidity really does prove that 210 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 2: when the person we love is dying, but they themselves 211 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 2: their whole and intact, their spirit is one hundred percent there. 212 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 2: So Carol needed this foundation that knowing that her father 213 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 2: was watching over her, her father in law too, and 214 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 2: her mother's spirit was whole because what no mother could 215 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 2: ever imagine was the loss of her beloved son and 216 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 2: only child, Adam. Adam passed away at just thirty five 217 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 2: years old from complications of sepsis, which his body couldn't 218 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 2: fight because of a medication he was on. The loss 219 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 2: was and is unimaginable to anyone, including mom Carol. But 220 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 2: Carol told me that immediately after Adam passed the signs 221 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 2: from the afterlife, while, as she put it, they seem 222 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 2: to go into high octane. The spirit world seemed to 223 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 2: know that Carol was open to connection, and Adam, now 224 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 2: free and powerful, began to make his presence known in 225 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 2: some very astonishing ways. One of the very first and 226 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 2: most direct signs she received happened right in her kitchen. 227 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 2: She told me that there was a light that had 228 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 2: actually burnt out and hadn't worked for months. One day, 229 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 2: standing right under that burnt out light, she was overwhelmed 230 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 2: with grief. She was looking up and said, I miss you, Adam. 231 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 2: I love you. In that exact instant, the light, the 232 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 2: one that was burnt out for months, flashed on and 233 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 2: off three times, blinking. Carol was stunned. Of course, she 234 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 2: had to know, so she spoke out loud and said, 235 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 2: is that you, Adam? Is that really you? She then 236 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 2: created a system right there on the spot. She said, Adam, 237 00:15:53,120 --> 00:16:00,239 Speaker 2: one blink means yes, two blinks mean no. She asked again, Adam, 238 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 2: is that you? The light blinked. Once her heart was founding, 239 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 2: she then said, I love you, and the light blink back. 240 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 2: I love you. In their new code, Carol told me 241 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 2: that she and Adam still communicate through that burnt out 242 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 2: light all the time. Now, let's just pause and think 243 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 2: about that. This isn't a random flicker or a power surge. 244 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 2: This is a light that was dead coming to life 245 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 2: only in direct response to Carol's words. It's an intelligent 246 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 2: two way conversation. It's a hello from heaven. But Adam 247 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 2: wasn't done. He soon gave her a sign that was bigger. 248 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 2: Carol and her husband Paul were at home, deep in 249 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 2: their grief, watching the film Mister Holland's Opus. As the 250 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 2: film played, John Lennon's beautiful, heartbreaking song called Beautiful Boy 251 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 2: came on. Carol and Paul just sat there, listening to 252 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 2: the words and crying, thinking of their own beautiful boy, Adam, 253 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 2: And in that peak moment of love and sorrow, the 254 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,199 Speaker 2: house seemed to come alive. Carol said that all the 255 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 2: electronics went on and off at once. The radio went 256 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 2: on and off, the TV went on and off. The 257 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 2: lights in the room were flashing on and off. And 258 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 2: it wasn't a flicker, it wasn't a power outage. It 259 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:29,639 Speaker 2: was an electrical symphony. It was as if Adam was 260 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:34,640 Speaker 2: using every ounce of his spiritual energy and saying I'm 261 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,159 Speaker 2: right here with you, Mom and Dad, I hear you, 262 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 2: I feel your love, I'm with you. In this moment, 263 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 2: Carol and her husband Paul burst into tears, but this 264 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 2: time they knew there were tears of recognition. They knew 265 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 2: their beautiful Adam was seated right there with them. The 266 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 2: electrical signs kept coming, and then they moved from electrical 267 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 2: to physical. Sometime later, Carol's husband Paul had hip surgery 268 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 2: and a physical therapist was coming to the house. Carol 269 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 2: was sitting on the couch watching the session. The therapist 270 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 2: turned to her and said, I'm so happy you're the 271 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 2: type of wife who can sit right through all of 272 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 2: his exercises with him, so you can learn and help him. 273 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 2: The very second she finished that sentence, all the electronics 274 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 2: in the room did their symphony again, flashing on and off. 275 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 2: To Carol, it was as if Adam was saying, that's right, 276 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 2: you're doing a great job, mom. But that wasn't all. Carol, 277 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 2: still amazed, looked down at the couch cushion right next 278 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 2: to her. There where nothing had been a second before, 279 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 2: was a single, perfectly shaped, pure white feather. She told me. 280 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 2: It appeared out of nowhere. She picked it up, knew 281 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 2: in her heart it was from Adam, acknowledged the sign, 282 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 2: and now she continues to find them everywhere, but this 283 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 2: first one. It's what many call apports, a physical object 284 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:03,360 Speaker 2: that materializes from the spirit world into our own. It's 285 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 2: one of the most tangible and undeniable forms of evidence 286 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 2: our loved ones can't give us. This reminds me of 287 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 2: a story from my friend Rob. He asked his deceased 288 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 2: loved ones for dimes, and what he thought would be 289 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,640 Speaker 2: when he was walking, he'd see some dimes and he'd 290 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 2: know it was from that loved one. However, the loved 291 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 2: one took it one step further, and I call these apports. 292 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 2: Rob rented a car and when he got out of 293 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 2: the seat there were dimes on the seat. Not only that, 294 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 2: he was sitting on an airplane, and when he got 295 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 2: off the seat in the airplane there were dimes. And 296 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 2: in a hotel room after he had checked in, after 297 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 2: he had taken a shower, he goes back into the 298 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 2: bathroom and there are dimes in the tub. Now back 299 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 2: to Carol and Adam. Adam also uses birds in incredible 300 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,160 Speaker 2: ways Carol shared the next story about his first birthday 301 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 2: after he had passed. She said, I couldn't let his 302 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 2: birthday go by without celebrating Adam. So we all sang 303 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 2: Happy Birthday to Adam. On the back bumper of my 304 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:18,239 Speaker 2: friend's van. A big raven came and sat on the 305 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,439 Speaker 2: back and looked at each one of us like it 306 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 2: was speaking to us. It shook loudly, met each one 307 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 2: of us directly looking into our eyes, and then it 308 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 2: flew away. We were stunned. Then fifteen minutes later it 309 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 2: came back and did the exact same thing, and this 310 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 2: was no ordinary bird. Later Carol had a reading with 311 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 2: a medium who verified the bird. She said, Oh, my god, 312 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 2: your son Adam is here, and he's talking about the 313 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 2: raven that came and spoke to you on the beach. 314 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 2: He had put his soul into that raven to join 315 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 2: you all for the birthday party. He was there to 316 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 2: celebrate with you. The signs from birds became even more direct. 317 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 2: Carol told me about a time she was feeling low 318 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 2: and specifically asked Adam for a sign. She said, one morning, 319 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 2: we woke up and I said, Adam, it's been a 320 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 2: little while since I had a sign from you, Can 321 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 2: you send me one today? She told me that when 322 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 2: Adam was sick, she would often play the song on 323 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 2: Eagle's Wings for him and whisper, someday you're going to 324 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 2: soar like an eagle. After asking for that sign, she 325 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 2: and Paul were driving to a state park. All of 326 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 2: a sudden, she said, this beautiful, huge eagle, a bald 327 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 2: eagle with a white head and feathers, was so close 328 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 2: to me. It landed on the front hood of our car. 329 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 2: Its golden eyes looked me right in my eyes. It 330 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 2: had one wing up to the sky. It stared at 331 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 2: me and then flew up to the sky. My husband 332 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:08,400 Speaker 2: and I we were stunned, looked at each other. Did 333 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 2: that just happen? And I knew it was not a coincidence. 334 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 2: When does a bald eagle land on a car? That 335 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 2: was a direct, specific and beautiful answer to her request. 336 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,880 Speaker 2: She also shares that cardinals come to her home all 337 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,880 Speaker 2: the time, but they don't just land in the trees. 338 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 2: They come knocking on her window just to let her 339 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,360 Speaker 2: know that they're near. And it's not just about birds, 340 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 2: it's music too. Carol told me about another vacation she 341 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 2: was feeling Adam's presence, and just as she was exiting 342 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 2: her breakfast spot, she said, Adam, if you're here with 343 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 2: us on vacation, give me a sign. She continues, We 344 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 2: then walked into a gift shop. She said that Adam 345 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 2: was a big fan of the singer Donna Summer. As 346 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,160 Speaker 2: soon as I walked in, on the radio by Donna 347 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 2: Summer started to play. This was a song that she 348 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 2: and Adam used to dance to all the time. Again, 349 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 2: an immediate, personal, an undeniable sign for her that he 350 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 2: had heard her. But all of these signs are so personal, 351 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 2: so powerful to Carol. But the next one, she shared 352 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 2: is verifiable in another way. It involves her godchild, Her niece, Katie, 353 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:30,479 Speaker 2: was very sick with an autoimmune disease. Carol, using her 354 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:34,439 Speaker 2: blinking light system, had a long talk with Adam. She 355 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 2: asked him, Adam, is Katie going to make it or 356 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,919 Speaker 2: is she going to join you in heaven soon? The 357 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 2: answer she got back from the light was clear. Caro 358 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 2: believes Adam told her, Mommy, She's already halfway here in 359 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 2: heaven with me and with all of her loved ones. 360 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 2: The very next day, Katie passed away, But the story 361 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 2: doesn't end there. After Katie's past, Carol learned something incredible. 362 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 2: She found out that before Katie died, she had an 363 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 2: experience with Adam. She was in her house when she 364 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 2: suddenly saw Adam in her room. But he was different. 365 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 2: She said. He was taller than his six foot three 366 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 2: inch frame. He was almost seven feet tall, and he 367 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,919 Speaker 2: was wearing a long white gown. And this, this is 368 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 2: the detail that gives me goosebumps. Katie said that Adam 369 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 2: was holding a little beagle dog by a leash, and 370 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 2: he was walking her through the house. Here's the thing. 371 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 2: Carol never told her that the beagle, Mollie, was their 372 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 2: family dog, but they had gotten Mollie after Adam had 373 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 2: passed away. Adam in his physical life had never met 374 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 2: that dog. Katie in that moment, seeing her beautiful vision 375 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 2: before passing of her cousin and that little dog, she 376 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 2: grabbed her cellphone and she took a picture of what 377 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 2: she was seeing. Carol told me that they have that picture. 378 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 2: To her, it looks like an X ray image of 379 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 2: her son, Adam, taller than life, in a white gown, 380 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 2: holding the leash of a little dog, the dog he 381 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 2: met in the Afterlife. We'll be right back with more 382 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:30,400 Speaker 2: stories from Carol LaRusso and her son Adam. You're listening 383 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 2: to Shades of the Afterlife on the iHeartRadio in Coast 384 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:56,679 Speaker 2: to Coast A m Hairinormal Podcast Network. Welcome back to 385 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 2: Shades of the Afterlife. I'm Sandra Champlain. Segment. We heard 386 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 2: the powerful and personal signs Carol received from her son 387 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 2: Adam after he had passed. The blinking light that communicated 388 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 2: I love you, the house full of electronics flashing on 389 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 2: and off at the exact moments she and her husband 390 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 2: were grieving for him, the white feather that appeared out 391 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 2: of thin air and continued to do so, And most incredibly, 392 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 2: the verifiable photograph taken by her niece Katie before she passed, 393 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 2: showing Adam and spirit holding the family dog, Mollie, a 394 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,719 Speaker 2: dog he had never met in this life. These signs 395 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 2: are personal, they're direct, They're undeniable. Although I haven't seen 396 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 2: her picture and I didn't get those signs, a mother knows. 397 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 2: We human beings know when it is that our loved 398 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 2: ones are communicating with us, and no one can take 399 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 2: those away from us. But the universe wasn't done providing 400 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 2: this evidence to Carol. The next set of validations she 401 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 2: received came from meeting. The details they provided were specific 402 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:06,679 Speaker 2: for Carol personal, and to her, impossible for them to 403 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 2: know that they serve as independent proof that Carol's connection 404 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 2: with Adam is real. Carol shared a story with me 405 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 2: about a medium named Aurora. It happened in an ordinary place, 406 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 2: she said. We met in an ice cream parlor. Rora said, 407 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 2: I'm pleased to meet you. She said, oh my word, 408 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 2: there's a young man around you. He goes by Adama 409 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 2: in heaven. Adama. Carol said that when she heard that name, 410 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 2: she almost fell over. You see, Adama was a special, 411 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 2: private nickname. She explained. When Adam was little, my brother 412 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 2: in law, Ronnie said to Adam, I'm going to call 413 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 2: you a Dama. And then when Adam was older, going 414 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 2: to a dance or a nightclub, I'd hear him in 415 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 2: the bathroom and he'd be saying to himself, looking good, Adama. 416 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 2: So when that medium said in the ice cream parlor, 417 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 2: he goes by Adama in heaven, not knowing his name 418 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 2: was Adam, I was amazed. The validation didn't stop there. 419 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 2: The medium continued painting a perfect picture of her son. 420 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 2: Carol said. She told me he's a teacher in heaven. 421 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 2: That he loves children, he could communicate with older people, 422 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,920 Speaker 2: and that he loves animals. That he was a basketball 423 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:33,400 Speaker 2: player and made everybody feel hope, and when you got 424 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 2: a hug from Adam, that he always tapped you twice 425 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 2: on the back. Every single detail she said about Adam 426 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 2: was correct. He was always helping people in life, so 427 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 2: it makes sense that Adam is a teacher in spirit 428 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 2: and in life. He was a gifted basketball player. And 429 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 2: that two tap hug that was his signature move. She said, 430 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 2: something only his family would know. Carol and her husband 431 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 2: got another powerful confirmation when they were least expecting it. 432 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 2: They were on a ghost tour in Okalla, Florida. Carol explained, 433 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 2: the woman who led the ghost tour she just knew 434 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 2: us from the ghost tours as Carol and Paul. That's 435 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 2: all she knew. She didn't even know our last names. 436 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 2: And we were talking about orbs and she kept looking 437 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 2: at me and smiling, saying she was looking at my aura. 438 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 2: And I said, what is it you see? You keep smiling? 439 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 2: The woman said, I see a beautiful angel around you. 440 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 2: You have a beautiful angel surrounding you, and when I 441 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 2: look at you, his light is so bright that I'm blinded. 442 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 2: I also hear the dribble of a basketball. There's the 443 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 2: basketball again. Carol and Paul were amazed. Of course, this 444 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 2: woman couldn't have known that Adam played basketball his entire life. 445 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 2: Carol shared with me that they had sent him to 446 00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 2: summer camp with one of the players for the Boss 447 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 2: in Celtics. He was able to sink twenty out of 448 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 2: twenty baskets from the foul line. He was the kid who, 449 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 2: in the final moments of a game, sunk a three 450 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 2: pointer from across the court and he was carried off 451 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 2: on his teammate's shoulders. He loved that basketball, she said. 452 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 2: He was a little boy who would even carry his 453 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 2: basketball with him to soccer practice. The final story from 454 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 2: Mediums that Carol shared with me is when her and 455 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 2: her husband went to one of the live events of 456 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 2: medium Matt Frasier's. They were in a huge audience of 457 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 2: two hundred people. Carol told me, when he divided the 458 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 2: room in two, he walked down the middle. He said 459 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 2: to me, you in the pink dress, you are so 460 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 2: receptive to getting signs from the afterlife, and you know 461 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 2: they're from heaven when you get them. He said, the 462 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 2: spirits around you are driving me crazy, wanting me to 463 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 2: talk to you. Matt Fraser then proceeded to bring through 464 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 2: care girl's whole family with stunning accuracy. He talked about 465 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 2: her father being an accountant, seeing him at the kitchen 466 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 2: table with his ledger. He brought through her funny father 467 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 2: in law, Tim, and even knew that he had done 468 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 2: vaudeville at one time. He said, the two fathers are 469 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 2: bringing a son. It's your son, Adam, And then in 470 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 2: that moment he started to choke. He felt like the 471 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 2: tube was inserted down Adam. When Adam had a respiratory arrest, 472 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 2: his mother, who's also a psychic, ran to get him 473 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 2: some water, and he said, I'm fine. It's just that 474 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 2: your son is very, very powerful in heaven, letting me 475 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 2: know what he felt. The medium had physically taken on 476 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:50,479 Speaker 2: the very specific traumatic medical event of Adam's passing, but 477 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 2: then Adam used the connection to send his parents the 478 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 2: most healing message he possibly could. Carol told me what 479 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 2: Matt said next was telling me when he passed away 480 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 2: that you and your husband did everything, and he knows 481 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 2: you didn't leave his side those entire four days. And afterwards, 482 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 2: when he was signing his book, I said, Matt, I'm 483 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 2: sorry that happened, and he said, don't be I'm fine. 484 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 2: It's your son, who is extremely powerful in heaven. That 485 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 2: made me feel what he felt when he passed. Having 486 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 2: a good evidential medium reading is certainly very healing for 487 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 2: those who are grieving. So these experiences, the dreams, the 488 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 2: high octane signs, I Love the Eagle, the verifiable mediumship 489 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 2: have all taught Carol so much, not just about the afterlife, 490 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 2: but how to live this life. The most important lessons 491 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 2: she shared with me were about forgiveness and how to 492 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 2: raise our own vibration to be able to feel that 493 00:32:55,800 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 2: connection for ourselves. She told me another story from a 494 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 2: about her husband's uncle George, who had been tragically shot 495 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 2: and killed during a robbery. The medium told her that 496 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 2: Uncle George had come through with a message for her. 497 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 2: Carol said, he wants me to tell you that when 498 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 2: he crossed over into heaven, he forgave the young men 499 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 2: who had killed him because he was able to see 500 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 2: the horrible lives they had lived. What a beautiful message 501 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 2: that someone could actually forgive the ones who had killed him. 502 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 2: This shaped Carol's own outlook. She told me, I want 503 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 2: to talk about forgiveness. Don't let any baggage weigh you down. 504 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 2: Anybody who's listening right now, forgive freely. That doesn't mean 505 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 2: you have to have a relationship with that person, but 506 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 2: do forgive them. If you forgive and you don't want 507 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:59,720 Speaker 2: to continue with a relationship, what I do. I put 508 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 2: their name on a sheet of paper and I give 509 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 2: it to God and say I forgive you, and I 510 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 2: love you as God loves you. And then I just 511 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 2: rip up that piece of paper so you too can 512 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 2: free yourself of that baggage. She told me that her 513 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 2: son Adam, reminds her over and over again of the 514 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 2: key to this connection. As she said, Adam tells me 515 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:29,360 Speaker 2: what's going to save the earth is kindness, compassion, and love. 516 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 2: So I asked her, for all of those listening who 517 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 2: want to feel all those amazing signs, those dreams, that connection, 518 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 2: who want to have these experiences, what can we do? 519 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 2: How can we each up our frequency to meet our 520 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 2: loved ones halfway? Her answer was beautiful and simple. In fact, 521 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 2: you just ask them. She said, just simply ask them, 522 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 2: say I love you, I miss you. Can you send 523 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 2: me some signs? Means, can you join me in a dream? 524 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 2: Can you flicker the lights on and off? And then 525 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 2: free yourself of the baggage? Don't have any anger in 526 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,560 Speaker 2: your life when you ask. She told me her own 527 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 2: practice is to go outside every morning, talk to your 528 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 2: loved ones and ask for signs. But the real key, 529 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 2: she says, it's how you live the rest of the day. 530 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 2: Carol said, lead a life, lead with love. Say you're 531 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 2: in a restaurant and the waitress is having a busy time, 532 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:36,280 Speaker 2: make sure to tell her I appreciate you so much today, 533 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:39,879 Speaker 2: thank you for the wonderful service. I go out every day, 534 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 2: Carol says, thinking how I can make somebody's life better 535 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 2: by a compliment, just by showing them that they're there, 536 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 2: that they're listened to, they're important, and that they're seen. 537 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 2: And that's what we all need to do to raise 538 00:35:55,080 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 2: our vibration. Let go of baggage, be forgiving, be kind, 539 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 2: and be compassionate. And one of the best gifts you 540 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 2: can give is to be a good listener. What a 541 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 2: beautiful message to raise our own vibration by living a 542 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 2: life of kindness, forgiveness, and love. Not only does it 543 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 2: make our time here on Earth better, but it opens 544 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 2: the door to feel that connection with our loved ones. 545 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 2: Love is the key. And it's interesting from all the 546 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 2: near death experiences that I've heard, they too, say that 547 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 2: the key to our lives now is forgiveness, kindness, service, 548 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 2: and love. And isn't it interesting for anyone who has 549 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:53,400 Speaker 2: studied the major world religions? What are the most important principles? Compassion, charity, gratitude, honesty, truth, 550 00:36:54,000 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 2: not doing harm, unconditional love, and forgiveness? What do you 551 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 2: think about all that? They sure are simple words to say, 552 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 2: aren't they? But they may be not so easy to do. 553 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:14,320 Speaker 2: But isn't that why we're here on planet Earth souls 554 00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 2: having a human experience, learning, forgiving, loving, investigating all of this, 555 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:25,279 Speaker 2: And for myself, I'm wondering, if I can take on 556 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 2: more of those values and qualities, will that raise my 557 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:35,799 Speaker 2: vibration for more signs to appear in better communication with 558 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 2: my loved ones? Some food for thought, don't forget. Carol's 559 00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:44,760 Speaker 2: book is called My Journey into the Afterlife to find 560 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 2: My Son. So make yourself comfortable, because when we get 561 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 2: back from the break. I'm going to guide you into 562 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:56,399 Speaker 2: a gentle meditation to connect with your loved ones. You're 563 00:37:56,480 --> 00:38:00,200 Speaker 2: listening to Shades of the Afterlife on the iheartrate you 564 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:25,240 Speaker 2: and Coast to Coast, a m paranormal podcast network. Welcome 565 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:29,319 Speaker 2: back to Shades of the Afterlife. I'm Sandra Champlain. I 566 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 2: live in an old town and I often thought it 567 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 2: would be great to put on a pair of glasses 568 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 2: to transport me back in time to see what the 569 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:42,399 Speaker 2: town looked like two hundred years ago. And that got 570 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,400 Speaker 2: me thinking about the veil between this life and the 571 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 2: world our loved ones live in the hereafter. I one 572 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 2: hundred percent believe we are part of their world and 573 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 2: they are just vibrating too fast so we cannot see them. 574 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 2: But what if we had a pair of glasses that 575 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:06,400 Speaker 2: would allow us to see into their world. This is 576 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 2: a journey into our imagination, and as we know, our 577 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 2: imagination is the language of the soul. Any great medium 578 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,280 Speaker 2: will tell you that when they surrender to the spirit world, 579 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 2: the evidence they bring through appears just like their imagination, 580 00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:27,080 Speaker 2: as if the spirit folks treat our minds like a 581 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 2: blank canvas to paint on I'd like to guide you 582 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 2: through a gentle meditation, a simple journey, using this language 583 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 2: of the soul and the gateway for spirit. So if 584 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 2: you are in a safe, quiet space, I invite you 585 00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 2: to close your eyes. Let's begin by taking a few deep, 586 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 2: healing breaths, breathing in slowly, and as you do, you 587 00:39:56,840 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 2: can imagine, if you'd like you're breathing in pure, peaceful 588 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:06,960 Speaker 2: white light, hold it for just a moment and exhale, 589 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:10,319 Speaker 2: letting go of all of the worries and all of 590 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 2: the stress of the day. You can do that one 591 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:21,920 Speaker 2: more time, a deep breath in, filling your lungs with 592 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:28,960 Speaker 2: peace and calm, and a long, slow breath out, just 593 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 2: letting go. Now, just allow your breathing to return to 594 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 2: its natural, easy rhythm. I want you to bring your 595 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:48,399 Speaker 2: awareness to your body. Imagine that a warm golden light 596 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 2: starts at the very tip of your toes and relaxes 597 00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 2: them completely. You can feel this warmth move up into 598 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:04,680 Speaker 2: your feet and into your ankles and into your legs, 599 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 2: melting any tension. It moves up into your knees and 600 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:20,400 Speaker 2: into your thighs. Your legs feel so heavy, so relaxed, 601 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:28,799 Speaker 2: and let that warm, peaceful light fill your hips, and 602 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:34,279 Speaker 2: your stomach, and your chest all the way up to 603 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:38,719 Speaker 2: your shoulders. Just let them droop as all of the 604 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 2: tension just dissolves, and feel it flowed down into your arms, 605 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:55,240 Speaker 2: through your elbows, into your forearms, into the wrists, all 606 00:41:55,280 --> 00:42:01,399 Speaker 2: the way down to the tips of your fingers. Now 607 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 2: feel that warmth to move up your neck, relaxing all 608 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:15,240 Speaker 2: the little muscles It move into your head, softening your jaw, 609 00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:23,160 Speaker 2: your cheeks, your forehead, and even the tiny muscles around 610 00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:30,760 Speaker 2: your eyes. Your entire body now is held in this beautiful, safe, 611 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 2: golden light, feeling completely at peace, with not a care 612 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 2: in the world. Now in this beautiful, peaceful state, I 613 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:48,360 Speaker 2: want you to imagine in your mind's eye a small, 614 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:53,600 Speaker 2: beautiful box sitting right in front of you. It can 615 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:57,760 Speaker 2: look any way you wish. Perhaps it's an antique wooden box, 616 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,960 Speaker 2: or just a simple gift box tied with a ribbon. 617 00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 2: It's a gift from your soul to you in your mind. 618 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:11,680 Speaker 2: Reach out and open the lid, and inside, resting on 619 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:17,799 Speaker 2: the softest velvet, is a pair of special glasses. These 620 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 2: are your glasses. They might look like antique reading glasses, 621 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:26,320 Speaker 2: or might look a little more modern, or maybe something 622 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 2: you've never seen before. It doesn't matter. These are your 623 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 2: afterlife glasses, a tool to help you see and hear 624 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:39,279 Speaker 2: beyond the veil that normally keeps us from seeing our 625 00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 2: loved ones. Gently in your mind, pick up these glasses, 626 00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:50,919 Speaker 2: feel their weight in your hands, and now slowly lift 627 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:57,760 Speaker 2: them and put them on. As you do, the world 628 00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 2: behind your closed eye begins to shift. The darkness softens, 629 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:10,879 Speaker 2: it becomes brighter, more vibrant. You realize that you are 630 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 2: in a space that is both here and there, almost 631 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 2: like a beautiful waiting room with a couch or a 632 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:23,600 Speaker 2: bench or two chairs. The veil in front of you thins, 633 00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:30,839 Speaker 2: becoming as soft and light as a mist. With these 634 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 2: glasses on, you have one simple job to feel love. 635 00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:40,719 Speaker 2: I want you to think of that one loved one 636 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 2: that you miss so much. Just bring them to your mind, 637 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:55,200 Speaker 2: feel the love you have for them. Now, think of 638 00:44:55,239 --> 00:45:02,719 Speaker 2: a favorite memory with them that brings you joy and 639 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:07,840 Speaker 2: from your heart, just send out the thought I am here, 640 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:17,280 Speaker 2: I am open to seeing you. I love you. Now 641 00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:21,400 Speaker 2: just sit in this beautiful safe space and notice you 642 00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:30,080 Speaker 2: don't have to try. Just be open with your special 643 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:33,800 Speaker 2: glasses on. You might begin to feel a gentle touch 644 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:39,960 Speaker 2: on your arm, or a familiar warmth right next to you. 645 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:47,480 Speaker 2: You might smell their perfume or cologne. You might hear 646 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:51,759 Speaker 2: them whisper your name, or just hear the sound of 647 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 2: their laugh. Or with your new eyes, you might see 648 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:01,840 Speaker 2: a flicker of light off to the side, or you 649 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:06,719 Speaker 2: might see them standing right in front of you, or 650 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:17,320 Speaker 2: sitting on the couch beside you, healthy and smiling, exactly 651 00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:23,080 Speaker 2: however you wish to remember them. Just be here in 652 00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:26,279 Speaker 2: this moment with them. I will be quiet for a 653 00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:29,760 Speaker 2: little while so you can have this time to hug 654 00:46:29,880 --> 00:47:25,759 Speaker 2: and to hold and talk with them. Know that this 655 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:30,880 Speaker 2: connection is real, Know that this love is real. That 656 00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:35,120 Speaker 2: they are not gone. They are right here, just on 657 00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 2: the other side of what we can normally see. You 658 00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:45,360 Speaker 2: don't need the waiting room, and you don't need the glasses. 659 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:48,719 Speaker 2: They tell you they are always a part of your 660 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:54,640 Speaker 2: life and will never leave you.
