After-Death Communications

 

Hospice physician Pamela M. Kircher reports that: “While After-Death Communications (ADCs) are common during NDEs and in the last phase of life, these visitations occur under other circumstances as well. People are often ‘notified’ of a death by the deceased person. ADCs are quite common in the days or first few weeks after the death of a close relative. Most of these communications seem to have the purpose of reassuring the grieving relatives or friends.”

But sometimes a visit from a dead loved one communicates a warning. For example, “A warning from a dead mother saved another person from a car accident. As a man was driving his usual path to work, he distinctly ‘heard’ his mother (who had died two years before) tell him to take another route. Feeling a bit foolish, he did take another route. Later in the day, he heard on the news that there had been a ten-car pile-up in the fog right where he would have been that morning had he not taken the alternate route.”

“I honestly believe,” Kircher concludes, “that everything that happens in life is for a purpose that will ultimately serve our highest good and that I am responsible to look for ways to be in alignment with that highest good.”
