Julie Ryan

Distant Loved One

Claire from Sydney, Australia, asked:

Hi Julie,

My father-in-law is in palliative care suffering from multiple medical issues including liver cirrhosis, heart disease, and other complications. We have been told they cannot do a scheduled heart operation because it’s too dangerous.

My family and I live in Australia and my father-in-law resides in the UK which makes the situation difficult because we’re so far away.

He has been through numerous medical procedures, spent many months in the hospital, and we have all been on a roller coaster ride for some time now. Six months ago, we were told by his doctors we should go home to the UK to see him because his liver was failing.  

After learning this news, my husband immediately flew home. Once he arrived, my father-in-law suffered numerous heart attacks while waiting for a new procedure which now can’t be done due to complications.

We would love some advice.

Thanks,

Claire

Hi Claire,

My goodness, I can only imagine what your family is going through with your father-in-law’s health challenges. And to be so far away makes this situation really tough.

In order to get some information for you, I first energetically connected to you in Australia and from you to your father-in-law in the UK.

When I got him on my radar, I could see he is in Phase 7 of the Twelve Phases of Transition. This means his spirit has separated from his body and is attached to the top of his head. It looks like the bubble you see in a cartoon where a character’s thoughts or words are shown. His parents’ spirits are at his feet and anchor a horseshoe of angels. In addition, many other spirits are present. The group is comprised of deceased loved ones and pets. It’s truly a glorious sight.

Each of us goes through the Twelve Phases of Transition as we’re dying. It can happen in an instant like in a homicide or suicide, or it can evolve over days, weeks, even months for a person to experience all of the phases. Regardless of how long it takes, it’s important to remember that everyone goes to Heaven.

Your father-in-law telepathically told me he is ready to go, is in pain, and just wants his family around him.

If some of you are unable to physically be there, you might want to connect with him through Skype or FaceTime. That way, you can see him and he can see you, it’ll just be online. (If needed, perhaps a nurse or caregiver can assist.) I find this option works great for families with distant relatives who are dying.

Please consider reading my book Angelic Attendants: What Really Happens As We Transition From This Life Into The Next. It’s available in paperback, digital, and audiobook formats and I believe it will both inform and comfort you and your family.

Lastly, please know we all decide where, when, and with whom we are when we transition so regardless of who’s with your father-in-law when he dies, it’ll be his choice. Hope that fact alone brings you some peace.
