“If you expect nothing
from anybody, you’re never disappointed.” ~ Sylvia Plath
According to Patricia Pearson, about
fifty percent of the bereaved sense the presence of the dead. Her book is
called,

NOVA: Describing Nature With Math
One of the most
difficult temptations to recognize is that to doubt a healing because of the
appearance of continuing symptoms is a mistake in the form of lack of trust. As
such it is an attack. Usually it seems to be just the opposite. It does appear
unreasonable at first to be told that continued concern is attack. It has all
the appearances of love. Yet love without trust is impossible, and doubt and
trust cannot coexist. And hate must be the opposite of love, regardless of the
form it takes. Doubt not the gift and it is impossible to doubt its result.
This is the certainty that gives God's teachers the power to be miracle
workers, for they have put their trust in Him. ACiM - Manual for Teachers - Section 7
-Should Healing Be Repeated?
The acceptance of
sickness as a decision of the mind, for a purpose for which it would use the
body, is the basis of healing. And this is so for healing in all forms. A
patient decides that this is so, and he recovers. If he decides against
recovery, he will not be healed. Who is the physician? Only the mind of the
patient himself. The outcome is what he decides that it is. Special agents seem to be
ministering to him, yet they but give form to his own choice. He chooses them
in order to bring tangible form to his desires. And it is this they do, and
nothing else. They are not actually needed at all. The patient could merely rise
up without their aid and say, "I have no use for this." There is no form
of sickness that would not be cured at once. ACiM - Manual for Teachers - Section 5 - How Is Healing
Accomplished?
