The person's presence

Many people continue to ‘see’ or ‘hear’ the person who has died or have a sense of their presence. For example, some people walk into a room and have an experience of 'seeing' the person sitting in their favourite armchair. Other people have vivid dreams in which they see the dead person as fit and well. These are perfectly normal experiences and should not frighten or upset you.
