A second vision

Again this happened while I was sleeping so I could be just dreaming but like I've said about previous visions like this one.. I believe it's real.
Last night immediately after I fell asleep I saw clouds parting to the left and right very fast and there was a bright light behind them. It was completely silent. My brain knew right away I was probably about to be visited by Nana again and I woke up.
I wonder if she knows I can't handle seeing while I'm awake and was waiting for the first opportunity after I fell asleep to visit me. What I got out of this vision is that Nana has now left and is in Heaven. I told her several times I want her to show me proof of afterlife and that Heaven is real. I think this was it. She was showing me Heaven.
Later Mom told me that today is the third day, and that's the day your spirit goes to Heaven for good. Wow this is so neat.
Vision of Nana

Last night while sleeping I had a real quick vision of Nana. She was sitting on the edge of her hospital bed (like she would be if she was about to stand up and walk away from it) dressed in her hospital gown. She looked 10 years younger, healthy, happy and at peace. She was looking right at me and what I remember most was the blue eyes. I was a bit surprised and woke up right away.
The spirit last night

Last night I wrote about noticing strong perfume smells in my house while I was reading a book, and thinking it was probably my grandma who is ill and could die at any time. As I was writing that journal entry my watch alarm triggered at exactly 12:00 AM. I was quite surprised because it's not set for that and never beeps at that time.
Today I phoned my grandma and she's still alive. She told me that it's my aunt's birthday today. My aunt died a couple years ago. I think she came and made me aware of her presence, then watched me to go my computer to type about my grandma. When she realized I thought it was the wrong person she triggered my alarm so I'd become aware of the date. Unfortunately I didn't realize it's her birthday. But after discussing with family we now know it was my Aunt Shirley. I've had several other experiences throughout my life and now I think I'm convinced there is an afterlife.
JSF programming, and my grandma

Tonight I finally finished reading a 2" thick book on the JSF web development framework. I'm pretty excited about making use of it but before I do, there is one more book I want to read. It's a book on Hibernate. I'll start reading that one tomorrow night. My approach to learning this stuff is to read every page but not to worry about remembering everything. I want to get a full understanding of the big picture then when I start my first project (probably my website) I'll reference the book for the details.
And about my grandma.. Nana.. She's been suffering from a rare form of arthritis called Sclara-Derma for the past 5 years or so. It's in her organs and and she's very near the end. She's been mostly in bed lately. A while back I asked her to come visit me as a ghost when she dies for me to know that afterlife is real. I said don't scare me though, find a way to do it while I'm awake but that won't scare me. Tonight while finishing the last chapter of my JSF book I experienced something very odd. I smelled waffs of perfume. It wasn't from me, the dog, all windows were closed and the smell did not come from the tenants downstairs. It happened around 11:15 PM. It happend a few times, including just a couple minutues ago while I was typing about JSF. I'm a bit worried. I tried calling mom at work but she's not there (maybe she's on days). If she did die, that was a really good way to show me that afterlife is real without scaring me. When my aunt died, and also my last dog, I saw them in dreams. But those were dreams. This was real, I was wide awake. I wonder what will happen tomorrow. I'll phone to find out, maybe she's alive still. If so, I can't explain what happened.
My Aunt Shirley

Last year tomorrow, my Aunt Shirley died. She was on the brink of death for days before that, possibly even weeks. She had arthritis so bad that the last 5-10 years of her life she had to use a wheel chair.
Last night I had an odd dream. I just woke up from it actually. I was driving down the 401 on my way to Mississauga to visit her. I got off somewhere right off the 401 and stopped in front this house to do something to my car. This lady came over and seemed to be expecting me. I went inside her house and my mom was there. She had just arrived as well. We went upstairs and I looked around, the place was painted really artsy and was very nice. I got the impression that it was my Aunt Shirley's friend. Then Shirley came out of a room down the hall, walking and looking great. She was all dressed up and had makeup on, lost lots of weight and looked like she did 10 years ago. She looked really happy and walked over to me. I said hi, gave her a hug and kiss, and asked her how she was doing. She said she was great. Then my mom and her left to go out shopping or something? Next I went to the couch to sit down and said hi to my cousin Tyson (Shirley's son) and his daughter Gwen.
I used to have lots of dreams about Heidi after she died like she'd be visiting me or something. On the 1st year anniversary of Heidi's death she was back in a dream and at the time it was quite memorable. Now I don't remember anything about that dream but I'm sure I wrote down a description in my journal. It's neat to think the dead come to visit me in my dreams, and that I don't feel the least bit afraid. I'm always happy and comforted.
