So I went to the Nursing Home today. I was just there Monday to do the usual. Today I went because I got overloaded with magazines & decided to bring them in early.
Last Monday one of the women I see was saying she was leaving on a lear jet for Heaven that evening. It upset her daughter & both the nurse & myself said it is better to just go along with it. Emogene is as sharp as a tack but she has gone downhill mentally here in the past 6 weeks or so.
So that was that & I went home.
Today while dropping off the reading material I talked to another resident I see & I asked about Emogene.
She told me she went into check on her Tuesday & Emogene was saying she spent most of the night in Heaven & asked why she did not come. (Dorothy & Emogene have been lifelong friends).
Dorothy preceeded to tell me that Emogene told her her husband Joe was there, saw other various people & again asked why she did not come. Dorothy said the Lord did not want her yet. I could tell she was a little disturbed by all of this.
I've noticed my time there & when I worked in these types of enviroments that occasionally people will claim this sort of thing. See loved ones, etc. I once had a lady tell me she saw my father that had been killed when I was a child.
So my question is this: Do you think that God lifts the veil a bit as we are starting to let go of this world?
Have any of you had any experiences with this type of thing & loved ones?
