Hello

I have very recently and suddenly lost my Dad who was 61, and I am struggling. I am going to attend a Mediums evening in a nearby spiritualist church this weekend. Please can you share your positive medium/clairvoyant stories. Am interested to hear whether specific names/details are provided or just vague information....
Thank you

They’ll hone in on a name from your body language and they are adept at making questions seem like statements.

I’m sorry for your loss but you are vulnerable to con artists.

My dad was 63 when he died unexpectedly. I was shattered.
I understand your grief. You are very vulnerable to be conned in your desperation to have contact with your father. Please save your money.

You should be all right at something run by a Spiritualist Church. You will be advised to 'don't feed the Medium'. Just say yes/no you can or can't take what they are saying. It is their job to bring forward evidence to prove to you who is coming through. Of course you could sit there all night and get no message or it will be from someone other than your Dad. If he has not long since passed it may be too soon for a message. But often there is a lot of laughter at these events and you could enjoy. There are different levels of ability in Mediums of course which can affect the quality of the evidence pulled forward. So sorry for your loss.

This.

Don't engage in wishful thinking and try to make something fit when it doesn't. You might not get anything but I hope you're able to find some comfort all the same.

I saw a medium about 2hrs from my home town when I was very young, about 16 or 17. Told me 'they're going to say that your brother is about to die, he won't, he'll be okay.' I had an old head on young shoulders and was cross that someone would say that sort of stuff to a kid. Fast forward about 2 years later and I was resuscitating my brother on our kitchen floor, 4 hours later the hospital staff recommended turning off his ventilator and he came round. It took another 3 years and multiple collapse episodes for him to be diagnosed with a heart condition and be fitted with a pacemaker.

My mother saw a local medium who said her mother was with her and they mentioned my brother and sister and 'another boy' (my mum had a miscarriage) but no mention of me. She told me this and I jokingly said into the ether 'thanks for forgetting about me Nan'. I visited the medium who told me about my brother and as I walked through her front door she started laughing. I asked what was wrong and she said 'I've got your nan here, she's saying, how can I forget about you when we share the same name!' my middle name is the same as my nan...

Noted your concerns thank you. Prior to losing my father I too was sceptical but hence why I am looking for positive experiences. :)

Also the charge is £8.00 per person which I am fine with and won't be persuaded to part with large sums of money for a reading, thank you.

@Galaxygirl93 I did the same thing as you when I was grieving. I went a few times. £2 donation. I took a lot of comfort from it even when a medium didn't speak to me. I had a couple of messages- only one made sense/felt right. I'm still not sure what the truth of the matter is, but if you're seeking comfort and aware of the potential for exploitation then I don't see the harm.

@DuchessDandelion thank you

Just accept that he's gone. Save your time and money for grief counselling to come to terms with it.

Mediums are all charlatans.

I used to regularly attend a spiritualist church. It was someone new just about every week and they don’t have any info on people attending. I’d say this would be a better way than paying someone.

A woman done a reading for me and still to this day it’s stuck with me.
The detail she gave about the person coming through was totally accurate. She could tell me he was singing happy birthday; it was in fact mines the day before (a big one). She stated I’d go on a solo trip to Spain. I did the following year and it wasnt planned, very last minute. And she mentioned a baby girl - this bit wasn’t clear. She just said she saw a baby girl in the future. I took it to be someone else, and indeed the following year a baby girl was born who was of great significance to me. But I also had my own this year. I had a clicking feeling after she was born & thought about the reading.
This one might have been rare, but the level of detail was incredible.
