Ask a group of ten friends if they have ever had an awareness of someone who has died, and you will usually find that at least half of them have. Such contacts are particularly common in the first few days and weeks after a person has transitioned, and in cases of sudden death. Dream visits where the person who died looks healthy, happy, and much younger than when they died are reported frequently. And sometimes our loved ones also reach out to help us when we face a crisis. Learn more about after-death contacts in the Foreword we wrote to August Goforth's wonderful book The Risen.
