Death and Dying
Death, Loss, and Mediumship
misfortune can be a painful process, so many factors to be understood and considered. In the unique media we have seen such overwhelming displays of pain, Farrah Fawcett, Ed McMahon, and of course the unexpected death of Michael Jackson – not only family and friends of such celebrities, but the fans, millions of people who are in shock and damage at their deaths, especially exacerbated when it is unforeseen.
How can a medium wait on in such a status? Well, while all situations are novel, most circumstances where loss is the main weep, has “steps” that should be considered. THIS Medium always tells clients not to speed for a reading- wait, a few months- time is needed, not unbiased for the soul that has passed, but for the loved ones who grieve.

Saying Goodbye to the Ones We Love
The first time I met my maternal grandfather I was eleven years ancient, on a dart to visit the homes and places where my parents grew up and lived before eager to Canada. Sadly, it also turned out to be the only time I got to be with him as two months after our return home, he died from a brain aneurysm. While the news hit me hard, what I remember most from that fateful morning was the sounds of my mother’s mournful and inconsolable weeping, of a daughter crying out to her father who objective mere weeks earlier had held her in his arms to say what turned out to be his last good-bye. Although that go was the first and only time I ever got to be with my grandfather, as is the case with life, his passing was to be the first of many times where I’d be reminded of the inevitable truth that no one lives forever.
Of course, the loss of a loved one is something we’ve all had to deal with at one point or another, either directly in our fetch family or indirectly through the loss experienced by one of our friends. The dismal irony, though, is that no matter how many times we experience this emotional turmoil – of feelings of hurt, loss and sadness – it doesn’t gain any easier to handle, nor does it relieve us understand better what our family/friends need us to say or do. I issue the main reason for that is because the death of a person doesn’t simply mean the crash of their life; it also marks the kill of the relationships they had with those around them, of the bonds that held them together. In that light, it’s understandable that the loss of some people will impact us far greater than others and why we can never really prepare for the loss of someone dear to our hearts, no matter how many times we’ve already endured it.
