I Have Wisdom, Too!

"That I talk to dead people", she laughed. This was the hardest topic for her to discuss openly. People don't understand. I do. I've been trying to figure out how to write this story for months. In the words of my beautiful friend, Linda Beushausen, spoken at Ella's funeral service, "This may stretch you beyond what you've ever really thought about or believed before." It seems that's just what Ella does. This is what I know.

I'd been seeing Debra throughout my pregnancy with the twins since I'd learned that Ella wasn't meant to stay. I tried very hard to be aware of everything during my pregnancy and to take advantage of every opportunity to experience and feel both the pain and the love. All I wanted was to be a mother and if I got to have Ella for only the time that I carried her, I was determined to appreciate, remember and be present for all that I could. This was not always easy for me and I had amazing support from family and friends, including Debra.

Among Debra's many gifts, she is a phenomenal energy worker. I would lay on her massage table and relax as she worked around me, 'fixing' my energy and bringing me into sync with my self. I always feel clearer and extremely relaxed and renewed after an energy session with her.

This time Brad was with me. Debra was at my feet, talking me through the session, telling me that regardless of Ella's time with us, she had a lot of wisdom to share. As she went on about Ella's wisdom, I heard a voice say "I have wisdom, too!" and at that moment, Debra interrupted herself to say "Well, Lennox has wisdom, too!" My eyes shot open and I said "Oh my god, I heard that!" Debra laughed and Brad looked at me like I was crazy as I described what I'd heard. Shaken, I did my best to settle back into myself on the table and I soon began to again feel the energy move around me as Debra did her work. She continued to talk me through the session and laughed again as she said "Now you, too, can say you talk to dead people" and again I heard 2 voices - the second interrupting the first - "We're not dead!" "We're not dead!" I laid there in silent shock as Debra immediately corrected herself "Well, I mean, they're not dead..."

It took me months to wrap my head around what happened that day on Debra's table and to tell her the rest of the story. I'd had a dream before this that Brad and I were talking to our newborn adult babies. I know that these babies are old souls. I believe we return to experience life again and again. I'm glad they chose us for this one. They have taught me so much. They have both shared so much wisdom. And forever, I get to be their mom.
