i know angels are real. just a few days before my first husband died he was in the hospital, fading rather quickly, and was out of it most of the time but with a few lucid moments. during one of those times he looked over my shoulder toward a chair in the corner. his expression was puzzled. he tipped his head toward me and (still looking at the chair) asked me who was the man sitting there. i looked over my shoulder and saw no one in the chair. i presumed he was hallucinating due to the illness and meds even though he was perfectly “with it”. as i turned my head back to hubby, i caught a strange motion at the corner of my eye. it most closely resembled heat waves coming up from pavement. my head snapped back to examine the area again. nothing there but as i turned again there it was. i asked the hubby if the man was still there and he said yes. i asked if he recognized the man, he said no. never seen anyone like this fellow, even in pictures. could not describe him either. i asked if the man was bothering him, frightening or uncomfortable, nope. i wondered what the man was doing there and should i ask him to leave. hubby said “ no, he isn’t here to hurt me, he is here to help. i am supposed to go with him, but i’m not ready so he is waiting.” i know without any doubt that the man he saw (and the shimmer i glimpsed) was an angel waiting to escort a young man home to God. and when they left, i felt a warm sensation on my shoulder and looked to see which of my family had put an arm around me. no one had, they were all a few feet away. yeah i know angels are real.

I know Angels are real too. I have a very similar story that brings tears to my eyes, like right now. Yes, I know, and it’s powerful stuff.

Wow! My cousin had a 12 yr old son who died yrs ago and the night he died he told his dad (he was in the hospital)there were two other people in the room, and he thought one of them was a relative and he didn’t know the other one, but they wanted him to go with them, and my cousin who didn’t see them told his son if he wanted to go with them then he should. He fell back asleep and a few hours later he opened his eyes, help his arms up like a baby waiting to be picked up and then died. It chokes me up even now to write about it. The parents (were) agnostic at the time, but not now. God bless you and I am so glad to read your story too. I know there are angels amongst us.

A girl I knew who was dying of leukemia was near death and laying in her mother’s lap. She could barely breath or move one moment and the next moment she sat up excitedly and told her mother that they needed to say the Guardian Angel prayer and they had to kneel. She died a few hours later.
