I lost my daughter on October 9th. Within hours I knew that our estrangement was over, finished, and that she knew all the factors which led her mom and I to divorce. It is still sad, but she is well and happier than seh can remember.

I've just completed reading the book and passed in on to a coworker. I want to thank the Guggenheims for having the courage to conduct such studies and write the book. It takes courage to speak out in such a cynical, clinical world such as ours. Your book has encouraged me to once again take up meditation in the eventuallity that I may once again experience my unfailing friendship with my departed friend Michael. Peace, Leigh

Michael David Williams, my soul mate and true love, committed suicide on my birthday, August 31, 1997. He and I had gone on different paths in the final months of his life in order to find ourselves before making steps towards marriage. He sent me many letters, including a package with an engagement ring, here to me in Prague. He was an angel in this life, and I know that he is still here. On the month anniversary of his death (I rushed to Boise after finally being told 24 days after he died) I woke up very early in the morning and went outside to see the pre-dawn Idaho clear, bright starry sky. What occurred after took only a matter of seconds. I was thinking deeply about Michael, his pain, his love, his life, and how terribly excruciating it is for me. I thought how wonderful and peaceful it would be if he gave me a sign, say, like a shooting star. Turning my head slightly southwest, there was the shooting star. WE ARE NOT ALONE. WE MUST TRUST OUR HEARTS AND KNOW THAT THERE IS SO MUCH MORE TO OUR LIVES THAN WE WILL EVER REALIZE UNTIL WE REJOIN OUR BELOVED. I Love You Michael, always. You are, and were, the brightest light in my life.

I read "hello From Heaven" about two years ago. It came to me at a time when it was most needed. My son died almost three years ago. I really did not have much hope for myself. I chose to live after the first year of his death but it was a difficult decision. I miss him with every fiber of my being but I am creating a new life for myself; I have an outreach ministry for other bereaved parents through my church and visit the newly bereaved shortly after the death of their child. I am also in grad school..quite shocking since I could not concentrate for such a long time. If I am to survive, I must give purpose to my son's life as well as my own. Values and priorities change and I am a totally different person today. To all newly bereaved parents...don't give up. Embrace your grief as a symbol of love for your beloved child. Look and listen for their presence. Sometimes it is so subtle but they are there and will help you through this worst of times.

Hi, i lost my son 3 yrs ago, at the age of 10. Chad died in a grain wagon. I read Hello Fom Heaven the other day. I loved it! Thank you so much. We still dont know exactly why or how this happened to our son. He was at a friends house playing. We went thru such heart wrenching pain and it will never go away! I wished i knew if Chad is with me, but i dont.If anyone can help me it would be a life saver. I miss u Chad. And i love you! Mom.

I t will be three years in November that I lost my son. I had no knowledge about this subject until I read your book this summer. It was a wonderful and beautiful experience. At times I thought that I was going crazy feeling his presence near me, but now I know it is really him. Thank you for the book and site. Shelly Peck was the one who told me about the book and site.
