Need help explaining recent experiences
Posted: 22 Nov 2013, 03:04
To start off I am asking this on behalf of my mother. She doesn't have internet access to ask about her experiences, but she has been telling me about them and I have every reason in the world to believe her. She does not exaggerate. To give a bit of back story, she has been told before by people that she is 'sensitive'. We have moved a lot due to financial situations, and she has been able to know that something bad has happened there before. We both share this feeling, and many times we would look at each other while standing in a room, and she would immediately look at the landlord and begin telling them what happened. Needless to say this freaked a lot of landlords out.
Recently, we had been staying with family members, when my mother started having very odd experiences at night. At night, on an almost nightly basis, she is being what I call visited. Every night she was seeing people in her room with her. And she can describe them in incredible detail. She told me recently that one woman that visited her often was an older black lady, early 90's late 80's, wearing a purple church suit, with a hat, some flowers in the hat, and a thin veil on top. This woman like a lot of other people that she would see would sometimes be walking through the room, and sometimes they would just be standing next her, watching her. When she would wake up, she would see these people, and then check to see if she is awake. In the time it would take to rub her eyes, check the time, and look around a bit, these people would still be there, still watching, or walking. She left our families house a few months ago and had to go to a shelter, but even there, and not as often, she would continue to see them. A couple of weeks ago I moved her into an apartment, and everything was quiet, until last night, when she began seeing them again, and for the first time she was actually talked to. I can't feel anything wrong with any place she has been, so I feel this is something that is happening to her not the home. she was on painkillers for her bad hips at one point, but she began seeing these things, before taking, while taking them, and even now that she hasn't taken them in weeks. I don't feel that this is related to what she is taking, or maybe it is. I don't know.
If anybody has any information that they can lend to this, or advice, please give your opinions. I am open to a lot of different theories, could this be medicine, or could this be something greater?
