Yes- they built me a new foot! Awful lookin' thing it was! All due to bunions. They broke all 5 toes and set them with pins & screws. They carved and sculpted till I had a foot I hadn't seen in at least 20 yrs.! Glad to have access to a surgeon so very highly skilled- had been turned down by 2 others (but I am thankful they were honest and sent me to someone who could do this very complicated
surgery!). So, the nedresult will be that I will have a relatively normal, working foot- something I haven't had for many yrs.! Then it will be on to the other foot! Aaaaaahhh well.....
OK- so there I was on the very same hospital room I had been in for 6 days. (I was transferred from one to the other after a wk.)
I had my back to the rest of the room (my roommate had been freed a day or so before) and was watching the wretched TV. There was a tapping on the floor jst behind me that sounded like a cane or walking stick. It was a definite and deliberate tapping as if trying to get ones' attention. I glanced over my shoulder- nothing.
So I thought it might be water or heating pipes in the floor. But if that was the case why hadn't I heard the noise before? We had had wicked weather all last wk. so the water or heat pipes would have been stressed out for several days. I should have heard them then, dontcha think? This tapping continued several more times- the number of taps was not consistant either. So, again I glanced over my shoulder. Nothing. But I got the definite feeling of a presence. Psychically I knew it was an elderly woman with gra hair tied in a bun at the back of her neck. She had on a dress and a dark colored sweater- the stockngs held up by elastic garters and black, high-heeled, laced up shoes. Her frame was slight and her face was thin but not gaunt or sickly lookng. And she was NOT in a good mood! She was waiting impatiently (quite obvious) for someone and my sense was that it was a son, or some male, that would be taking her out of there.
Whether he did or not, I'll never know. Whether she had actually been a hospital patient or not, I'll never know. What I do know is that she sits there waiting for something.... with that tap, tap, tap of her cane.
So that's my most recent "ghostly encounter." Like I said- you just never know where they'll show up!
Thank you all for your kind words, thoughts and "glowing" energy! I appreciate evry bit of it and am sure that all of this positive energy has helped me a great deal!
Bright blessings to you all!
