Here’s an interesting and true story…a young man was walking along a road and he has only a vague memory of what happened that afternoon, but it was life altering…he remembers only bits and pieces of this extraordinary afternoon...a car drifted over and hit the young man sending him flying through the air and into a roadside ditch…he was severely injured with broken bones and lacerations…especially a gash above his right eye when his head contacted a sharp stick laying in the ditch…he does remember opening his eyes and seeing an image of his deceased father standing over him, telling him things would be alright…he closed his eyes in disbelief and when he opened them, the image was gone…but he knows he distinctly saw his father and heard the voice of his father comforting him in this time of distress…he then realized that he was lying in a muddy ditch and a puddle of blood was forming underneath his head…the pain in his legs began to fade away…as he calmly saw the blood, a peaceful feeling ran through him…he knew he was hurt badly, but he recalled a very tranquil feeling…there was no fear…no desperation…a feeling of quiet…just the thought that life was fading away…that was the last memory he had until several days later…he woke up in a hospital not knowing what happened during that time…he went on to recovery and he just knows that the experience changed his life forever and during the years, he learned that others have had similar experiences…a deceased person coming to comfort them during a time of trouble…what this man experienced is called a ‘crisis apparition’…that is when a person in crisis, perhaps someone who is critically ill or dying telepathically transmits an image of themselves to someone they have a close relationship with, but they're usually unaware they're sending such a message…well, whatever the source is for these apparitions, they often leave people comforted…and these apparitions aren’t limited to visions…it is said that the spirit of a dead person can communicate with a loved one through something subtle …many people who don't even have a believe in ghosts still experience crisis-apparition encounters, paranormal investigators say.
