I interned in bereavement at a hospice.

The #1 concern among clients is that they felt they were "going crazy" because they could hear, feel, see, or smell their departed loved one.

I'd always ask them "If you died, where would you go? To sone mystical place, or look after your family & friends." I could always see the 💡 come on in their eyes, as they always said look after family & friends.

Perhaps she visited you. 👍
