Communication Received, Loud and Clear
On Friday evening, my brother and his wife arrived at our cabin for a family weekend that would include fishing, golfing, arts and crafts, along with water play, meals on the beach and late evening campfire stories. For the first time ever, they would sleep in our little trailer (we bought about seven years ago) since all our cabin bedrooms were full, and they had decided against bringing up their trailer. My husband and I had arrived Thursday, and our oldest daughter and her family had already been up here for a week.
Saturday morning, my sister-in-law received the shocking news from Spain that her youngest sister (one of eight siblings, all living in Spain) had died of a heart attack, in her sleep. It was of course devastating news, and communicating with her siblings to find out more about the situation was made even more difficult due to the different time zones.
This morning, I found out that my brother and his wife had been awakened around 5am today by a persistent beeping alarm in the trailer. After much searching, my brother finally found the source of the noise - a CO2/propane alarm located under the bed. After checking the trailer inside and out, he realized there wasn’t a propane tank to be found and no furnace or gas stove was in use so he couldn’t figure out what was causing the beeping. He was eventually able to reach far enough underneath the bed to push the reset button on the alarm which shut off the beeping noise, allowing them to both to doze off again for a couple of hours. My sister-in-law noticed that the beeping had occurred the same time that her sibling were at the tanatorio (funeral parlour) to say their last goodbyes before the funeral which had been arranged for the following day.
Later this morning, after we all said our goodbyes with big hugs near the top of the stairs, my brother and his wife drove off. Our oldest daughter and her family then got into their truck and as I walked over to them for a last goodbye, I noticed a small, green, plastic heart lying in the grass in the precise spot where we had all just gathered. I could hardly believe that it had not been spotted before now. Each one of us had walked over this exact area many, many times over the course of the weekend.
While I began cleaning up the cabin, my husband pulled out some trailer information to try and figure out what had caused the alarm’s beeping sound to go off in the first place. After reading it through, he announced, “It looks like it’s an end of life situation”. What?? He showed me the particular paragraph he was reading - its heading: “End of Life Mode”. Communication received with love, loud and clear.

The Mysterious Realm of Communication
My most recent evening at the ISA included a relaxing guided meditation, as well as a heartfelt message from my paternal grandfather, in German, of course. About family, about love. He spoke directly to me, no medium required, about the parent-child relationship and the various ways it has played out within our family over these past four generations. Even though this man had died long before I was born, I instantly recognized his spirit and felt a deep connection as he shared his observations. The ISA evening ended about a half-hour later than usual, and when I got in my car, the clock read 9:55. After these sessions, I am usually home around 10 o'clock, and since it's about a thirty minute drive, I contemplated calling my husband to tell him not to wait up. Then I thought about how exhausted he was and the strong possibly of him being asleep, so I decided against it. When I arrived home, he was surprisingly still awake, and before I had a chance to tell him about my evening he told me about a strange incident that had occurred. He had been watching TV in the den when he heard a beeping sound coming from elsewhere in the house. As he approached the living room, he realized that the alarm was ringing on the clock in there. We don't use the alarm feature and it had never spontaneously gone off - it had not even been touched recently. He went on to say that it had happened at 9:55. Obviously that had no significance for him until I explained what I had been doing at exactly that time. For me, this was yet another new experience in the mysterious realm of communication. Fascinating, for sure.
