Grief
Grief is no stranger to me, as when I lost my dog Jake, who I cherished like a child. He was part of my life before the children came. He was my security blanket, my loyal friend. While this loss is difficult, it helped to strengthen me with the ability to see animals much more clearly in my readings. As well, I can empathize with people and appreciate the level of remorse people feel for an animal who has passed on. Thank you Jake for increasing my spiritual vision in the animal universe. You have taken a piece of my heart forever, you are always with me my little man. God Bless You Jake, thanks for visiting, ,this is your home always!
Tribute to My daughters Alyssa and Ariel and to all the others......................
Many People in this world deal with so many hardships, that involve sick family members, or caring for sick loved ones, with mental and physical aliments, requiring constant visits to the hospital and so on .... Know that you are the chosen ones .... You are strong and can deal with whatever comes your way, yes it is not fair, and I asked my self these very questions, these extraordinary human beings choose you, and spirit must have hand-picked you to be part of their contract in life.
Look at the situation and understand who in your circle would have been able to deal with such an experience.
I would like to share with you that I too can relate to this stress in my life, I have a six year old daughter who is a frequent visitor to Sick Kids Hospital since birth. She has had many operations, and has had one of her biggest in her life already.
I have had to administer needles everyday, and have had to stay focussed and strong to get my daughter Ariel to be her beautiful funny self. I live with the knowledge of her health everyday, and have accepted and treated this with the faith that the universe wants this child here, and that Ariel has tasks she needs to accomplish. I know that this little medium has surpassed so much already with her enormous strength and unexplainable gifts. Ariel’s knowledge of life and confidence is unbreakable, her kind heart is soothing. Ariel will make sure to leave her mark in the world and her unstoppable strength is awe inspiring . I believe Ariel will leave her mark in the world one day, and our family will be forever grateful to her.
Every situation has a message behind it. I understand that this child is the only child in my family who would have been able to handle this life ordeal, at such an early part of her life. The pain and strength this child has been put though is very dramatic and heart breaking, but she was our fearless angel ,who never complained and helped us deal with the situation. What child recovers from an operation suffering singing songs, and telling me she doesn’t feel any pain, and wants to only speak to the doctors because she needs to go home to her family. Her older sister (the healer).
Alyssa, is our soldier, the little mommy who never showed her tears and was there every step of the way. There were no better choices for two sisters to have each other. These two are the right fit for each other, and together they learned to be survivors. No bubble wrapped children here!
At three years old Alyssa was very protective of her sister and would crawl into Ariel’s crib to sleep beside her and keep her company. What an incredible sight for a mother to witness. These two girls share a love like no other I have ever seen before. Their daddy is an incredible man who never lost his cool, throughout this ordeal.
As a family unit of four people with our late dog Jake, we were able to gather strength from each other to help us deal with even the darkest days of her recovery. I believe the power of unconditional love has allowed us to overcome this on going battle with her condition.
Sometimes a part of healing is the ability you to deal and speak about the situation that is bothering you. Letting it out. It would be my pleasure to communicate and guide those who seek answers to their questions.
Let’s connect!!!
Next experience in life
Well, for the last few years I have had a difficult situation happen in my life,, such as dealing with aging parents who become ill. My mother, who is also my friend had a massive stroke in 2010, this was one earth shattering event for both my self and my family.
I bring this up because I am still dealing with it, and I believe it is something I needed to experience and understand in life, I guess you can call it a reality check. We are sometimes so naive and caught up with our own lives that unfortunately, it is only when life threatening events occur that we start to understand what is important in our lives, and what needs to be done for those we love the most. People often ask me why is this happening to me, why me, and when is this going to stop! When is my life going to be back to normal again?
Many of you, don’t understand how to feel. Let me give you my opinion, and I hope it helps to heal any part of the pain. This is a test of love, relationships and endurance. Can you persevere? This is a cycle in life ,your loved one’s contract, and why you are a part of it. They choose you, so step back and look at the picture. My mother words came back to me during her stoke, she taught me to fight, never to give up, always be strong and do the best you can, and deal with life the best and in the most honest way. She also told me to do what makes you feel right, and be happy and at peace.
Remember personal responsibility is on the onus of all the loved one and you should not feel guilty if you feel you did not do enough for them. Some things are out of your control and you can not be everywhere all the time. I learned that time is precious, and my gift was having more time with her, and caring for her and this is more than most people get.
During the first year of my mother’s stroke the doctors kept telling us she would die, she is so very ill, she is lucky to be alive. Moreover I had to deal with hospital administrators and staff members as well as family members who made this situation very stressful and exhausting. On top of that I had many with sleepless nights, restless days and countless hours spent in hospitals, while my two children could not comprehend why their mother needs to be gone all the time, and why they have to suffer so much when there are others who could easily step in to assist.
Well, someone needs to make a difference, and perhaps you decided to make yourself the one, who keeps your loved one alive at any costs to you. Like myself, Many of you have dealt with giving up careers, jobs, vacations, getting divorced, leading to a lot of stress that has also affected your own health. Therefore, you are paying the ultimate price by helping loved one who are seriously ill. However know your limits, and deal with your situation appropriately. Do not bottle up your feelings and try to communicate with people you trust that have gone through similar situations., By seeking others, to get comfort or advice, this may help you to avoid anxiety and resentfulness.
I have endured a lot, I am blessed with the best husband in the world, and two beautiful children, as well as the world’s most incredible father. My mother is my Hero and I love her with every breath. Hopefully she will want to stay around longer so we can continue to make more precious memories. Love you Mommy! You are my angel, thank you for giving me wings!
Precious
Remember this time with your loved ones, is a blessing, it is your love and time with them you will never get back again. You will wish one day you had five minutes with them again.
Dealing with Relationships( In my Opinion)
I am often asked about relationships in my readings, and the biggest issue I have is that it needs to be nourished with respect and trust. Please rethink a relationship when there is nothing but negativity or grief. Often when I listen to my clients, I sense a lot of anger when they try to get people to see things their way. They feel that partners, friends, or siblings do not care about their obligations in life. I have learned the hard way, going though my own grief(with my mother) that these people in your life need to deal with their own conscience their own way,forcing them only makes things bitter and miserable. Everyone needs their own kind of peace and we should always remember that Karma is a bitch. In heated moments sometimes unkind, unforgettable words, and actions are exchanged, which in turn effects the pride of those involved..But remember, what is important? Deal with the situation as best you can for the sake of your parents, your children and for the people you love. ‘This in turn will help you resume living in peace.
‘When Relationships or people around you start to feel toxic, and leave a sour taste in your mouth, leaving you to feel awful, then perhaps it is time to let them go temporarily, or indefinitely until they find their own peace. It may be the result that their time in your life has expired with you and you do not want them to be apart of your life anymore, No one needs to be miserable. This is your choice! I always believe in trying to make things work, but I also understand that certain people cross the line too many times for someone to swallow.
What I have done in the past when I have eliminated people in my life is to pack up the memories (gifts) that they have given me so I do not feel their negative energy so I can begin to heal. Some people donate this stuff, to people who have nothing.... Some people donate their time, or services , to others for example Big sisters Big brothers, elderly homes, volunteer in the hospitals to fill in the time, this is such a rewarding experience. By paying it forward, you are doing a good deed, which will help to inspire others
Soul Sisters ( Friendships)

You people are very special to me and I am so fortunate to have you in my life. Thank you for all the support you have given me, and being there when I needed you the most. Hopefully life gets better from here and we can spend more time together to make up for time lost.
Final Note:
