A few years ago, I was doing a Mediumship reading for a woman named Carol who had recently lost her son.  Patrick was in his mid 20’s and had Down Syndrome during his physical life.  Although that was not the cause of his physical death, he was able to make his presence known to me as soon as his mum  sat down in front of me.  Very quickly he started to show me all about himself, what he liked to do and what his personality was like…a very upbeat one I might ad!  🙂

Carol was able to confirm the evidence that was being given by her son and wanted to tell him how much she missed him.  During the reading Patrick was able to relay stories to her of the things he remembers his mum doing for him including some of the funny things she used to say which they would often laugh about.  It was near the end of the reading that Patrick asked me to tell his mother that he wanted to let her know how proud he was of her.  This is not an uncommon request (spirit will often say things like this) however on this occasion, I asked him why….?

He showed me that after he passed away that his mother had left her husband (not his father) and was living alone for the first time in her life.  He then told me to tell her that although he was in the spirit world, he still “sleeps in front of her bedroom doorway watching out for her”.

I passed onto Carol what Patrick had said.  With this information, Carol became quite emotional.
She explained to me that when she was married, her now ex-husband was quite volatile and although they slept in separate rooms (at that time), Patrick used to sleep in her bedroom doorway to protect her from her husband.  She went on to advise that after he passed she was able to get the courage to leave her husband however, used to get scared sleeping in her new home at night.

One week later, I felt very fortunate to receive a text message from Carol advising that although she still misses him, she is no longer scared as she knows Patrick still watches over her at night.

Spirit never ceases to amaze me that even though they are no longer in the Psychical World, they continue to guide and protect us from the spirit world.
