Hey everyone. I am a big believer in paranormal experiences, as I have had my own. Some people call me sensitive or "mildly psychic," or "attractive" to spirits. Whatever I am, I've had my share of experiences. This one is a little different.
Three years ago, when my boyfriend's niece was about one year old, her mom asked me what my impression was. I looked at her for a long time, and then said, "Keep her away from water." I just got the impression that water around this kid was wrong somehow, and horrifying.
Cut to three years later. Her mom asked me to sit with her and talk to her about some things she's been saying about living in Italy with her "other family." I said that I would. I sat down with her in my own daughter's room so that she could play while we talked.
She did not tell us these events in order, but I'll give them to you chronologically for clarity.
My boyfriend's niece said that she was born to a mommy and daddy and several brothers and sisters in a house by a river in Italy. Everyone thought she was a boy, but she "knew" she was a girl. Her room was filled with boy's things. She said she was a boy because her "butt" was different, and that it was long and "had a pokey thing." I am told she has never been exposed to male anatomy in any way, shape or form.
Her father fished all the time (a fisherman, I assume). She did not say what her mother did, but she said that they were very mean to her because she did not feel like a boy. She used to sneak in and put on her mother's makeup, and they caught her one time and yelled at her. She said that they were very, very angry because she was a boy and should not wear makeup.
One day, some mean people "threw fire at her" and her hands were burned. She then went to a "very nice doctor" who "put band-aids" on her hands, but they got red and very swollen and they had to cut her hands off. She got one of those hangers with the clips on it and said that they had to cut like this and made a sawing motion above her wrists.
She said that everyone was still mean to her because she knew she was a girl, but looked like a boy. One day, her mommy and daddy threw her into the river and she hit her head on a rock and "then I died." She said someone who "cared about her very much" pulled her out of the river a while later, but it was too late because she was already dead. Then they buried her with grass and pretty flowers, and put a "sculpture with beautiful wings" on her grave. What 4-year-old knows and uses the word "sculpture?"
"Then I started all over again," she said very matter-of-factly. I asked if she remembered her old name, and she gave me a funny look and said, "No. Why would I?" as though it were a silly question. She said it was not the first time she had started over and that she was once a baby in Africa.
When asked if this time was better, she nodded emphatically and said it was "much better" this time and that her mommy was nicer. I asked what she learned in Italy, and she smiled and said, "I learned about good people. The best people in the world."
What do you guys think about this? Is there any sort of truth to the events in this story? Where could I research and try to find out more about this?
