Hello, my name is Charmin and I live in New Jersey. Back in May, 1997 my husband's mother passed away at 50yrs. We were living in Nova Scotia at the time and about four day before she died we got a call at midnight that his mom had a stroke. We immediately left for home. After a lot a discussion between his family and doctors they decided to turn off the machines.
She died a couple hours later. We stayed at his old house and slept in his mother bedroom (his mother and father slept in separate rooms for some reason). A couple days after the funeral, when we went to bed, I woke up from something and on my husband's side of the bed I saw his mother sitting on the edge of the bed stroking my husband's hair. I thought I was dreaming and I tried to focus a much as possible since it was dark but I did see her and she was rubbing his head and telling him it was going to be alright.
I felt peace a that moment. I didn't tell my husband for a while after that -- I didn't want to upset him -- but when I did tell him he believed me. I still get chills when I think about it but I know from the time on she was looking out for him.
