It began 3 years ago when I had an unexplainable urge to find and visit my brothers grave that I had never been to as I was 10yr old when he passed...

A few days later a white feather was stuck to our door.. Then feathers started to appear all over our home including mine and my wife's hair.. We had no idea what this was.. Then coins started to appear in our shoes, sleeves, socks and appear right in front of us.. I noticed that the minting date on many of these coins were the year of his passing..

At this point items were disappearing and reappearing in other places..

Then items began turning up like gifts.. I drink chamomile tea and box's of tea would appear near the kettle.. I also only drink decaffeinated and when I was broke and out of coffee one night my wife went to a neighbor to borrow some coffee and when she returned there was a full unopened jar in the cupboard that was not there before.. This still happens..

My mother thought if a spirit was obviously making themselves known like this then we should get out the scrabble game and see if anything happens.. I placed the scrabble letters down on the floor in the open box and in a few minutes we looked at the box and the name "Les" had been spelt out.. At that moment I knew it was my brother.. And for the last 2 years we have been communicating this way daily...(I photograph everything he writes or does)..

He is now my spiritual teacher and has taken on the role of caretaker for me.. Every day he gets my blood pressure tablets out for me and puts them next to my bed.. He is always with me and some of my friends have met him as well.. I have a friend in Illinois that he visits with as well and sometimes writes messages for me to tell her. He says he will always be with me from now on and helps me with research into ADC and the odd investigation too..

Could you sense the emotions or mood of the deceased?           Uncertain

sometimes I/we can feel his excitement when I advance spiritually

Did the deceased give you information you did not previously know?  He generally just talks to us in real time (through scrabble tiles) about anything.. He tells me when one of my friends or loved ones is ill... He has told me some about being in spirit and the afterlife.. He has been with a loved one when he passed from cancer recently and told me he would take him to the light.. "Les" tells me he is an ascended master and can move through the spirit realms freely. Sometimes when I ask if I can film him levitating items etc he has said I will ask.. Always coming back a couple hours later and writes "sorry I'm not allowed".. But he has shown me and my wife and 3 coins morph into the other sides of the coins.. From heads to tails like a morph that takes 1 second ..

How do you currently view the reality of your experience?           Experience was definitely real

            Please explain why you view the reality of your experience as real or not real:           Because it is an ongoing phenomenon

            Was the experience dream like in any way?   No

Except once when I asked if we can connect at all while I sleep.. He said yes and I had an out of body experience that night in which I floated from bed to the wall he was standing at (a foot off the floor) and we held hands but it scared me somewhat being out of body and when he saw me that way I immediately was back in bed.. but he has written that he wants to connect like that again and show me everything...(his words)
