Have you ever seen a dead person and how did it effect you?
367106
I worked in a nursing home for the past 6 years so I have seen many, and had to clean many up.  I've had many patients die right in front of me.  I cant really say that that has affected me much, because you kind of get used to it.  But the thing that really affected me was how many of them in their last hours lie in their beds and talk to their loved ones who have already died years ago.  They think that the person is right there in the room and they are literally having conversations with them.  It happens so much that you really cant call it a coincidence.  That is the only thing that makes me believe in any kind of soul that lives on after death.  It is amazing how many of them do this right before they die. \n\nI really believe that there is a ghost in there or something, because the dying person never has these "hallucinations" about a person who is still alive.

Ok, it was not last night but here is one : I dreamt of a dead uncle of mine. We weren't close at all and I have no sweet memories of him. He died of a cancer several years ago.\nTo tell it shortly, he put his hand on my shoulder and just said : "Everything's alright". I woke up with a strange feeling. As I told my dream to my family, someone noticed that it was his birthday ... He still "visits" my dreams sometimes but doesn't speak. Some wise man told me he may need some prayers ... I'm not a great believer so I light on candles for him ;o)

I dream of people that have passed away all the time. I have even seen my grandma standing at the foot of my bed watching me sleep. She had a bright light surronding her. It freaked me out. I have no clue what it is called, but i just want you to know that you are not alone.

I talk to him in my mind. I tell him thank you for the life I have when things are hard and ask for guidance when I'm not sure of something. \nI feel I'm very smart because of this and I'm a very easy going person also, people that know me call me a Saint.\n\nThe near death experiences are fascinating, I've never experienced it myself though. \n\nAn aunt of mine was dying when I was young and for a few minutes before she died she was asking about the man dressed in white at the foot of her bed, no one else could see him. \n\nShe died in peace because of it.

By "seeing ghosts" what do you mean? Like apparitions? On ur jungle trip what did the ghosts u saw look like? I have never "seen" a ghost, but I have felt spirits and heard things. My dad came back to see us when he passed away. He always told us not to be afraid when he passed on, becos' he would come back only once to make sure we were okay, and then he would be gone forever. We heard him (my sister and I) rummaging through drawers (opening & closing) and then we felt him standing over our beds, of course we were kids and we got scared, but nothing else happened after that. I think ghosts were people who died violent or premature deaths, and have no idea that they are dead. The spirits I feel/hear are people who have accepted their death and need to tell someone they are content and will be okay.

i had just lost my grandfather and my 3yr old son within three days of each other. i was currently at Ft drum NY and had to fly down to AZ with my sons body for the funerals. i stayed with my family for the upcomming week, and the nite before the funeral i woke up at about 4am or so and saw my grand father standinding at the bottom of my bed smiling. he was surrounded by a very bright light and in my head i heard him say "Every thing is going to be O.K., he's with us". My wife awoke and saw the same image.by the time we looked at each other and turned back to the image, it was gone.

I have have many experiences like this, it's difficult to focus on one or two. I really wish I had more time to think about these things in the midst of a busy life, so thank you for asking this question.\n\nI had a near death experience, which made me more sure that there is something there after death. I saw a light, and found myself travelling towards it, and could hear the voices of loved ones who had died. Just as I seemed to arrive at a beautiful garden, it was as if I started travelling rapidly back again to the here and now - it wasn't my time yet.\n\nMeditation is a spiritual experience for me. So it prayer, although I don't belong to any organised religious group. And sometimes just walking in a beautiful place, or even sitting for a few minutes in a sunny garden. Or looking into the eyes of someone you love. Or sometimes a dream will take you to a spiritual place.I believe these are all spiritual experiences and they are available to us all, whenever we are open to them.

A recent experience:  April 8, 2006, my nieces' birthday at a restaurant in New Jersey.  While eating a family dinner at the restaurant where my niece works, I felt a bump on my leg from under the table.  Thinking that it was one of her children, I asked him to stop.  I spoke loud enough for the whole table to hear and received many looks and retorts that he was sitting at the other end of the table.  I felt it again on my left leg and then on my right.  There was no one nor anything visible under the table, I asked my niece if the place was haunted, she said "Yes!"  I found out later that many people have had similar experiences.  I was thinking of asking "Ghost Hunters" to check it out, but I don't think the owner would go for it.\n\nIf you want to hear a lot more, and they are very weird, e-mail me.  I've been thru various and sundry spiritual quests.  They've taken me to the depths of "hell" and, gratefully, to a very deep and profond belief in God.

Yep, Ive seen a few. I dont believe in ghost though. I believe that once  a person is dead there dead. Thier spirit either goes to heaven or hell and stays there. So i believe that when we see \n"Ghost" its a Demon. I Believe they portay themselves as ppl we know or whatever.  Ive seen alot of them in my house, My friends houses, and a church. I was in a normal state of mind. The scariest "encounter" was when i was about 13 i was at my friends house and we was laying on her bed with our heads hanging of the edge, when we heard a scrapping noise, we jumped up and looked at where the noise was coming from and there was her stuffed animal hanging from the top of the wall, and then it fell. It was wierd. We didnt see an actual qhost but something was there. And one  night 2 years ago i was staying at my best friends house and there house was empty cause they were moving the next day. Well we slept in the living room that night and ALL night Doors kept opening and slamming shut. Then lights were going off and on. and you could hear footsteps in the kitchen. but you couldnt see anything anywhere. It was so scary. We've also seen a male looking ghost there that goes by the name of John John.  SCARY!!!

I saw my first spirit when I was 14. It was the summer of 1987.(showing my age)My cousin's best friend was killed in a bicycle accident. About 2 months after his death, he made his appearance at my cousin's house outside his bedroom. Since then I seen the spirit of my grandfather (who died a year before my birth) on the 25th anniversary of his death. I believe in psychic abilities...somehow I can receive people's thoughts, but, unable to do it at my own whim. I am able to "know" information about someone that just pops into my head. Again it is random. Try this short activity, when the phone rings *minus caller id* predict who will be on the receiving end. Think of someone that you haven't been in contact in a long time, see if you bump into them or hear from them.

Yes.  A very close friend had been admited to the hospital with pneumonia and complications from his bone marrow transplant.  I woke up on a Wednesday morning feeling really bad and the bracelet he gave me broke.  I tried telling myself i was imagining things, but the next day, his roommate cxalled to tell my that my friend had passed away 10 minutes before I woke up. Ive had other premonitions too, but that stands out the most.

Yes I have. I've seen a ghost.It was in my backyard. My mother also saw it, too. I only saw it once, she saw him several times. We were not stoned, drunk, or anything else. We were sitting on the back porch drinking iced tea. He was in the yard. Very creepy feeling altogether. \n\nI have also seen what can happen with a Ouija board. That's the main reason I don't mess with them anymore. \n\nSpirits, ghosts and such are not to be played with.

Yea one day I was lying in bed. I was about 11 years old. I woke up in the middle of the night to find a ghost standing beside my tv. I was so scared. But since i knew that someone had died in the house I just covered my head for about ten seconds and lokked again and it was gone.

I believe in ghosts, but have never seen one. I think I have felt one, however - I think it was my grandma's ghost and she placed her hand on my shoulder but I looked at it and there was nothing I can see. Then, she must have left her hand because I felt something going off my shoulder.

I've felt that kind of thing too. I can't say for sure that the person was really present, or if they were just present in my mind - but either way the people we've loved and lost truly remain with us forever.

As a nurse I have had a few encounters of the spirit world.  One time in ICU a pt saw a Angel sitting in the corner over my shoulder, I was talking to her and a chill ran down my spine and I shivered, that's when she told me that there was an angel in her room, it was there to comfort her and let her know her time was coming soon and to make things right with her family.  She called them all and after her last kid came in she died.  There was no problem medically that would indicate that death was eminent.  Another time I walked past a room with a patient who was unable to control the lights in his room but a light shone out from under the door but not in the window of the door. And more personally, My mother had an angel wake her up and tell her to change some things in her life or she was going to die.  I truly believe that we humans are not the only ones who walk the earth.
