Nothing could have prepared me for the loss of my son. Naturally, I felt deep grief and sadness at André’s passing, but I felt many other emotions too. At times it felt like I was lost in an abyss with no real end.

Six months after André’s passing I asked a very close friend to help me arrange an appointment with a highly regarded medium  whom she knew well. She kindly assisted with my request, I met with the medium and what transpired over the next two hours changed my life.

This empathetic, compassionate and sensitive woman was able to establish a connection with a young man – my son. She described many things about him, his life, and experiences we shared. It was evident to me, even though I couldn’t physically see my son, that he was there and communicating to me through the medium. Apart from her gentle approach and awareness, she understood the pain I felt as a parent and the need to know he was okay as she had experienced a very similar loss.

It was during this reading I learned my son had in fact given me a wonderful gift – his passing and the experience of the loss was to push me onto my own pathway of mediumship. She said this experience, while painful and traumatic, would open the door for me to do the work I am here to perform on the physical plane: connect with those who’ve transitioned, to provide relief and healing to both sides.

The release from grief provided by this single connection was enormous. However, it took several more years during which time I undertook mediumship training by seeking out the best possible teachers through which to learn. I continued to study and practice to the point where I am confident I can be of genuine service to others.
