Our son DJ began telling us of his "friend" before he was 2yrs. old. His friend's name was Dave and Dave protected DJ. I'm not quite sure from what but he remained in our home for quite some time. My husband and I thought only of some guardian angel since we could not see Dave. My son was able to describe him and this description never changed. At times, we had to set a place at the dinner table for Dave but mostly he stayed in DJ's room at the foot of his crib. DJ also described other "visitors" in our home as he passed 2yrs. of age. The first was a small boy named Thomas who had a frog that he left to live in our bathroom wall. DJ often checked on the frog even when Thomas wasn't around. At one point Thomas brought some "friends" of his own to meet DJ. One was an adult man who didn't have a name and a little girl who remained nameless also. Their visits were not as frequent as Thomas' and apparently even Thomas didn't remain in our home at all times the way Dave did. And Dave also travelled in the car with us on one or two occasions. There was one particular instance after DJ moved from his crib to his bed when he awoke frightened by the "dark man" who stood at the foot of his bed but explained Dave had appeared to chase the bad man away. I don't know if these were people from our son's past or some form of memory from a former life. There was also another instance in which DJ stood at the foot of the stairs and pointed to the top and excitedly said the name "Rary" which was a family nickname for my great aunt who had been deceased since before I was born. I'm not quite sure what any of this means but wondered if anyone had any input or similar happenings.
I also read some questions regarding type I diabetes which DJ was diagnosed with at age six. Just curious to see if anyone else learns about a past life connection and illnesses. Please let me know if this sounds like any possibility of memories from the past life/lives he may have had. Thanks
 
Dear Kelly,

It would seem much more likely to me that DJ's friends are guardian angels and spirit guides he can see now rather than past life memories. Past life memories are almost always internal while angels are more likely to be seen and felt around us.

Concerning diabetes and disease, I believe it is possible that any disease MAY have its origins in a past life. That doesn't mean that any disease does originate in a past life. I feel each case has to be looked at individually. I doubt there are any blanket or widespread truths about all diseases originating or not originating in past lives.

Blessings,

bob

Thank you so much for your input. It always comforted me to think of his "fiends" as angels but the thought of spirit guides never occured to me. I truly believe we all have angels watching over us, especially our little ones. What do you think about the "dark man" who Dave protected him from? That particular visit always spooked me.
The reason I inquired about the diabetes is because it also never entered my mind that disease could stem from a past life. I'm sure it's because I don't know enough about it. Aside from regression is there any other way that you know of to learn about one's past life/lives?
Thank you for your time Bob and blessings to you and yours...Kelly
 
Dear Kelly,

I have compiled a small amount of information about children's spiritual experiences on my website as well as some links to other good websites about children's spiritual experiences.

There are so many possibilities as to what your son meant by the "dark man" that I would hesitate to speculate too much. Since it was something that passed quickly and easily, I wouldn't worry about it too much.

There are many ways to access one's past lives. I believe there are some threads in the FAQ section which address this question. Perhaps someone else can direct you more specifically to which threads are helpful. Personally I don't have a "method" that I can teach. I just know that I can access past lives anytime it's really called for in my healing practice.

Blessings,

Bob

Thank you again so much Bob. I truly appreciate your time and kindness in helping to answer my questions. I am anxious to visit your site as I'm sure it will prove to be enlightening.
Blessings to you and yours.......Kelly
 
Hi Kelly

I would have to agree with Bob, it seems that your son has some very protective souls looking after him, of which he is very sensitive to. As for the “dark man”, I personally wouldn’t worry if it was just a one off, of course if it become a repetitive thing it would be a lot more to think about, but with Dave about….it looks like DJ is very well looked after

Lots of Love
Kelly
 
Hello!!
My friend, recently told me a story which was perhaps to do with this topic! As a child she according to her mother had two young Victorian children as imaginary friends, she always insisted on setting two extra places at the table for them, one was about 9 the other 6 (I think!)She could describe them with extraordinary accuracy for a pre-schooler (something which is quite common around here!!!!) She is currently seeing if she can find out more about how these young children are connected to her. She also has a slight talent for premonitions!
Love and Light

We have all forgotten more than we remember.
 
When my daughter was about 2 yrs old, she had an "invisible friend" that stuck around for almost 2 years. The friends name was Victoria and she mostly stayed in Becca's bedroom. At the time, we lived in a house that was originally a one room school house.

Then one day I asked Becca where Victoria was and she said she was gone. She had to go be with her mommy and daddy. I asked Becca where her mommy and daddy were and she looked at me like I was the most ignorant person alive and said "They're dead."

What do you make of that? That really confused me because I always thought spirits didn't realize they had passed and that's why they were sticking around. Victoria obviously knew she had passed, she talked to Becca about it and told her about her life before she passed.

By the way... that was the last Becca ever saw of Victoria. I hope she found her parents
 
Dear QaHearts,

I am a medium who speaks with those in spirit frequently. Let me clear up a few common misunderstandings.

First spirit realm and human realm totally interpenetrate. In other words spirit beings are around us ALL THE TIME. They are perceived only a very small percentage of time, but they are all always around. The so-called separation between human realm and spirit realm is actually an illusion. The two realms vibrate at different frequencies which makes them appear separate, but in fact they are not separate. I can perceive spirit beings anytime I really need to.

The number of spirits who have passed and don't realize they have passed is, in my experience, extremely small and usually this state of illusion lasts a very, very short period of time (minutes or hours usually). If this is so, you can be sure that they are getting lots of help from their spirit guides with their transition and with realizing they have left their bodies.

Also, spirits who have not realized that they are passed are probably the least likely to make contact with humans. Communication from their side takes quite a bit of effort (and understanding of certain principles).

So, your daughter has given you a good education!

Blessings,

Bob

I do believe in spirits, I have one living with me now and I've always been able to feel them around me, as well as sometimes see them. To be honest with you, I really don't care to see them. I was told Becca was a reciever, but a bad experience has made her fear the supernatural. I'm hoping with time she'll get out of that. I don't push it, but I wish she'd develope her gift more. She was never afraid of Victoria, it was about 5 years later that she started fearing the things she felt and saw. It was when we moved into a house that was very old and 3 people had died in the house that I knew of. She heard voices calling her all the time and saw spirits when she went to bed at night. Until then, I never had a problem getting her to go to bed at night. It's not that she wanted to stay up, she was fine if she was able to sleep on the couch in the library that was downstairs by the us.
 
I found this story on another site and thought members here might enjoy it. I find this phenomenon - fascinating.

Any parent with an imaginative child has probably gone through the "imaginary friend" period.
It comes from Intuitive Girl.

When I was about five years old, I had what I thought was an imaginary friend, named Bobby. I would stop and wait for Bobby, hold conversations with Bobby. I outgrew this behavior and several years later, a woman came by the house and told my mother that she and her husband were the house's first owners.


She asked if she could come in and my mom said yes. She told my mom that she and her husband had moved after their five-year-old son, Bobby, had drowned in the bathtub. I don't remember the Bobby encounters now, but this story is at least a synchronicity, maybe more.
 
I have no doubt that most "imaginary friends" are spirits. One evening at home when we were having a party, my daughter (then 7 years old) whispered in my ear, "I have an invisible friend named Cristina." It was a bit odd at the time as there were lots of people in our house and the comment was entirely unprompted. The next day I asked my daughter to tell me more about Cristina and she got this funny look on her face and said she could not tell me any more. The sense I got was that Cristina had told my daughter not to tell anyone about her. Well, as a mom, I feel the same way about disembodied friends as I do about embodied ones: they are welcome to stay as long as they are friendly. If not, bye-bye. :D So I told my daughter that Cristina was welcome to come and visit, if she was a nice friend. If not, she was not allowed to stay. (As I said this I made the intention that Cristina would understand this as well). Apparently Cristina did come around a few more times but left permanently soon thereafter. My daughter (who is now almost 9) can still describe Cristina's appearance in detail.

Thanks for sharing, Beth - that's very interesting. :thumbsup:


Does your daughter think Cristina is a spirit, or have you talked about the concept?

:D :D:D yes - my feelings exactly!


Like Karoliina, I too wonder how your daughter feels about her invisible friend now that she is a little older?
