I was playing poker at a friends house one afternoon. The phone rang and my buddy's mom answered. She said it was for me. I picked it up, and to my suprise was talking to my grandmother. I was suprised because she had been hospitalized with terminal lung cancer and the last time I had seen her (a day or two before) was comatose. It was about 4:30 or so in the afternoon.
We spoke and she said, "I just wanted you to know I am all right."
I said "I'm glad you're OK Grandma. I love you. I'll come see you tomorrow."
She said, "Don't worry about me sweetheart. I love you too."
She rang off. About a half hour later my mom called. Grandma had passed away at 4:05. When we talked, she'd been dead for about 25 minutes...
I have never forgotten that my grandma called me, apparently from heaven. Noone else has ever said anything....
