I am incredibly passionate about the existence of the afterlife and, as my awareness expands, my reverence for its totality deepens. I am the mom of three beautiful children: Jenna and Adam are in this world, and Gabriel is in the heavenly realm; He transitioned through miscarriage. 

My calling to learn about the afterlife was inspired by many spiritual experiences, beginning in early childhood. My journey gained greater vigor after participating in spiritual development classes. It is through this journey that I learned about HPH. Despite my beliefs, I was unaware of what happens with an unborn baby, which led to a depletion of my life-force energy after the miscarriage. Learning about soul contracts and that our babies continue to thrive on the other side expanded my heart and awareness. I gained a deeper understanding of our soul plan and miraculous experiences began to unfold.

My meditation practice deepened, and I began to sense Gabriel. Initially, I doubted the signs, though the sensations and clairaudient communication were undeniable. Gabriel turned 12 this past June. I will continue to embrace his brilliant energetic existence with my physical senses until we meet at heaven's door. I step into each day now with great anticipation and excitement for what will unfold with him by my side.

Sherry was born in Cairo, Egypt, and came to the United States with her family at the age of six. She speaks fluent Arabic. She currently lives in California with her husband, fur baby and two children.

I lost my only child Yash in October 2018. Needless to say I was distraught, in despair and deep grief. Through a series of synchronicities, I was led to Helping Parents Heal whose members offer support on your bad days, cheer you on the good days and remind you that things will get better. With the many discussions on afterlife on the group, medium readings and signs I know that I still have an ongoing relationship with my child. Through this group I hope to offer the same compassion, hope and empathy to other parents in similar situation as us. I speak Hindi and am available by FaceTime, email and phone.

Allison and David Alison

We are the parents of three amazing adult children: Jocelyn, Davey and Julia. Our son Davey transitioned on July 20, 2016; he was involved in a solo car accident at the age of 24. 

David: I am an engineer with a science perspective and at the time of my son’s transition viewed consciousness as a byproduct of the brain. When the brain died, all that person was ceased to exist. That didn’t stop the feeling that my son was still around and trying to communicate with me. I learned that there is ample evidence that consciousness can and does survive physical death, which led me on a spiritual journey I documented in my book, Finding Davey. I find myself called to be of service to other parents that are struggling with grief. I will listen, answer questions, and share the tools I found that helped me develop a wonderful ongoing relationship with my son in spirit.

Allison: I had been on a spiritual journey prior to Davey’s transition, and this guided me to know that he was not gone. When people said, “I’m sorry for your loss”, I knew they were wrong. He was physically gone but I knew he was still here. I made it my mission to find a way to communicate with him. Through a lot of research and meditation, I have been able to do that. I want to help others do that too. In my career as an attorney and teacher, I have learned to listen to others and want to do that for other struggling parents. You are not alone, and you can feel joy again.

Hello I am so honored to be able to participate as a Caring Listener. HPH has been an amazing tool for me during this journey that we call grief. My husband and I raised our two boys in Cave Creek, AZ. My oldest son is TJ and my baby Tyler is forever 19. Tyler gained his angel wings on May 14th 2015 when he was hit by a car while riding his motorcycle. Tyler is always with me as are your children. He has Proven this so many times. I look forward to helping you in your healing journey.

Claudia Ardelean lives in Toronto. Her darling Emma was diagnosed on March 2016 with osteosarcoma, the same type of cancer that Terry Fox had. She was 12 years old and she was a provincial gymnast before. She transitioned on April 7, 2019, not before she told Claudia, “Mom, even if I am not going to be here with you to see me, I will be here in spirit, I will send you signs and you will know that is me”. Sure enough, Emma delivers every single day and Claudia is so grateful to be open to receiving her love and guidance. Please watch Emma's video from 'Romania's Got Talent', where she was invited to participate as a talented gymnast: https://vimeo.com/419080618 Here is another short video where Emma talks about her cancer: https://youtu.be/PNC6MG-JA3w

Angela Boughey

I am a mother of three beautiful children. Emily, our first daughter, was stillborn.  

Her siblings, Eireann Hope and Callum, grew up knowing of Emily. In 2020 Eireann turned 22. She was experiencing stomach pains and was admitted to hospital alone due to covid restrictions. She was diagnosed with stomach cancer and 6 weeks later she was gone.  As a family we were grateful to bring her home and to have the skills to care for her. That time was precious. I have been a nurse for over 40 years working at advanced level. Eireann was a scientist and believed very much that energy cannot be destroyed but changes. The signs and synchronicities she sends are amazing and lifts our hearts. I attended the 2nd HPH conference. I trained as a grief educator as I wanted to help others who had lost loved ones, especially during covid which was very isolating for families in grief. I volunteer as a caring listener within the community and now HPH who I am grateful to have found. This journey is not easy but love never dies and the process of grief is reflected by your love and guided by your child/ children. 

Mabel Chan

我識講中文/粵語/

My only child Leo returned to the Light at 19 years young. My husband CK and I are proud to say he was and still is our beloved son. His transition was sudden and unexpected. Leo was studying Political Science with a four year Scholarship at the University of Victoria in British Columbia, Canada. 

Leo has always been unique and would say the most unusual things. At age eight, he said to me, “Mom, do you know our mother and son Bond would never be broken!”

I didn’t know what that meant until after Leo has changed worlds. The indisputable signs and synchronicities from him kept coming to us. His signs and messages of Love and Hope all these years have kept us not just surviving but thriving. We never “lost” Leo as he continues to show us he is more active and alive than ever, only that the human body is gone.

It was initially very challenging because I didn’t know about HPH until five years after what happened. With the knowledge that I have gained on my own healing journey, I know that I am in a good position to be of service to other parents who are newer on this path. Encouraged by our son, I have written and published a Leo-inspired book named “The Infinite Bond: My Son’s Messages from across the Veil”. And I continue to share on HPH the uplifting signs and messages Leo sends for us and other parents. It’s all about Unconditional Love!

Dolores Cruz

I am the mother of 4 children – Nick, Jessica, Vanessa and Eric. Our youngest child, Eric, transitioned at the age of 24 in May of 2017 as the result of an automobile accident. As you all know from experience, we were devastated and lost. We had no idea how to go on with our lives. By a “coincidence” I was contacted by a cousin of a cousin who I didn’t even know, who told me about Helping Parents Heal. This amazing organization changed my life. I found my way out of the dark hole I was in, and found hope and healing. I remain connected to Eric through the many signs he sends, which I learned to recognize through the many members of HPH who share their connections as well. I can’t imagine where I’d be without this wonderful healing group.

Hello! I am a mother of 3 adult children. My middle and only son Brandon, 35, transitioned on Christmas Day of 2017. It was sudden and unexpected, of a massive heart attack next to me. This journey has definitely been difficult, but I’ve learned so much from this HPH group. I’ve learned hope, gratefulness, love and most of all healing. I am here to listen, share and send healing love to any parent who is experiencing this walk we are traveling.

Judith Hancox

In over 4 decades of spiritual and social work studies and practice, nothing challenged me more than the transition of my godchild on Feb 17, 2013. I felt so helpless in the face of my sister’s anguish; I knew I could do nothing to change it. Carly fought a valiant fight with esophageal-gastric cancer--diagnosed 2 days before her 24^th birthday and physically gone less than 4 months later!  Family and friends were shocked and traumatized. Carly had never complained and always believed she would survive. 

I was there to remind my sister that Carly did survive, just not in the way we truly desired. Carly visited me four times that first year–-through cell phone messages and dream visits. She reminded me she is alive, healthy, and happy. She visited me when I needed her the most. My sister learned through mediums and direct messages that Carly is still here. Our children remind us we need to develop a new relationship. They’re challenging us to remember the truth: We are always together in Spirit, and it's essential to remember--only love is real--love is and always will be the true healer.

Nancy Hejna

I am mother to four incredible children Katie, Maggie, Will and Joe.  Both of my sons left this earth two years apart at age 26.  Will passed from an accidental overdose in 2016, and Joe from a car accident in 2018 on the day of his sister’s wedding. To say this seemed beyond comprehension is an understatement.  Armed with the clear sense my boys could not possibly be “just gone”, I began a fervent search which led me to Helping Parents Heal with all it’s compassion and collective wisdom. I read many books, cultivated tools, and continue to this day the spiritual journey which has led me to “know” our relationships continue.  I am fortunate to live near the shores of Lake Michigan and draw inspiration from nature, the joyful energy of my beautiful daughters and grandchildren, and undeniable signs from my sons. I hope to support anyone on this difficult path in the best way possible.

Lynn Hollahan - Points of Contact

We are the parents of two beautiful children, Devon and Kelsey.  In November of 2009, we received a telephone call which changed our lives: Our son Devon had gone missing in Frankfurt, Germany.  After a month-long search, our worst fears were realized when his body was found in the Main River, downstream from Frankfurt.  Our world shattered; we wandered our house aimlessly until Devon began to make his presence known through mediums and signs.  These amazing and unmistakable signs proved beyond any doubt that not only was Devon NOT gone, he was, in fact, very present in our lives! 

Our connection to HPH goes back almost to the founding of the group when we were introduced to Elizabeth Boisson and Mark Ireland.  We are blessed to have had our journey become part of the book, Still Right Here, by Suzanne Giesemann, and we are eternally grateful for the miraculous bonds we have formed with other HPH members! 

Through Devon’s continued antics, we have found joy, peace and comfort.  Our fondest wish is to be able to help you achieve the same.  Here’s to moving forward together, living our best lives!

I am a teacher and a counselor by education, married to a retired Army officer. Less than three months after our precious daughter, Amber, transitioned in November 2014, at the age of 25 from an eating disorder that triggered an accidental overdose, we were dealt yet another blow. My husband’s boss, the owner of his company, also transitioned quite unexpectedly, and within a matter of weeks, my husband was without the job that we had really planned our lives around. We decided not to make any more dramatic changes during those early months of grieving and to spend the months ahead learning all we could about where our daughter was and how we could continue to maintain communication as well as our family relationships on both sides of this veil. Much reading, attending conferences, meeting with mediums and joining groups combined to lead us to Helping Parents Heal where we hope to learn even more ways to share our love and be of service to those who need a hug, a hand, a shoulder or an ear.

I lost my only child to a terrorist attack in France in 2016.  He was 20, my best friend, and center of my universe.  I used to love life but soon feared it.  My marriage and future were looking dim.  But visitations, amazing signs, and messages from Nick convinced me that there is a higher reality. I was able to find joy in life again and my marriage is stronger than ever.  I believe my son is somewhere safe, surrounded by love, and is doing the heavy lifting for me.   For 30 years, I managed environmental, geotechnical, and oceanographic investigations.  I enjoy reading about the strangeness of quantum physics, and I am fascinated by the flexibility of time as described by Einstein’s special relativity.  I am a waterman and learned to enjoy again kitesurfing, surfing, diving, fishing, and swimming.  I grew up in Spain and speak Spanish fluently.

My only child Nicolas was a victim of a terrorist attack in France on July 14, 2016. He was 20, and a student at UC Berkeley.  Nicolas was the greatest joy in my life. After the tragedy, I suffered from complicate grief and depression. I did not think that I was going to survive.  However, I soon discovered that Nicolas never left my side. I received many signs, messages and dream visitations that convinced me that Nicolas was still with me. Nicolas guided me towards the light, and with his persistent spiritual presence, he showed me that it was possible to find Joy in life again.  I enjoy reading books about the afterlife, lucid dreaming, and Out of Body Experiences. I currently live in Hawaii with my husband. Nicolas continues to be an enormous part of our life.  I was born in Italy; and I speak Italian and Spanish.

I am a mother to four children Shayne, Ricki, Carly and Chloe, my son Ricki, forever 23 passed due to an accidental heroin overdose on 30/06/2015. I honestly believe we have a soul agreement and mission together. The pain we all suffer as parents, whatever age in whatever circumstance our child passes, it changes our world forever. I had a spiritual awakening through Rick reaching out to me straight away with amazing signs and synchronicities, I searched for him and we met ‘somewhere in the middle’. From this beautiful place, we are so strongly connected. I developed my Mediumship abilities at my local Inverness Spiritualist Church and supported Mentorship programmes, a huge part of my healing journey. Mediumship is my passion. I recently became an Accredited Medium and an Accredited Tarot Reader. I continue to learn and grow and love to watch other Medium’s work. I believe Ricki and I have a soul mission helping other parents.

Our healing journey is not easy, but I do believe we grow as a soul and go on to finding a purpose, what we came here to do. Becoming a Caring Listener is in my heart. I feel so honoured to connect with such amazing parents and look forward to sharing this amazing space together.

Ann-Christin Moen

Jeg snakker norsk

Hello, my name is Ann-Christin. I am a mother of three wonderful children; Benedict,Mathias and Joachim.   We lost our youngest son summer 2018. He was found in the mountains here with a farewell letter in his pocket. In the blink of an eye our world turned upside down. Joachim was 21, already a skilled martial artist, and he had a bright future in front of him. This traumatic loss has changed everything in my life, and in my family´s life. I was lucky to find Helping Parents Heal and Suzanne Giesemann early on, and in her reading she gave me solid evidences about my son. The following year I traveled to The Arthur Findlay Collage where I got further confirmation about Joachims continuing presence in my life. Zoom meetings with other parents and resources from HPH have been, and still are very important for me.
Last year (2022) I finished a Grief Education Certification Course with David Kessler. I feel very honored to be able to participate in HPH as a Caring Listener, and I would love to help, share and listen to other parents on this journey.

Hei! Jeg heter Ann-Christin, og jeg har tre fantastiske barn, Benedicte, Mathias og Joachim. Sommeren 2018 mistet vi yngstesønnen vår  Han ble funnet med et avskjedsbrev i lommen. Der og da ble livet som vi kjente det knust i millioner av biter. Joachim var 21, og allerede en erfaren martial artist med en en lovende fremtid foran seg. Det traumatiske tapet har forandret både meg og familien min for alltid. Jeg var heldig og fant både  Helpings Parets Heal og Suzanne Giesemann tidlig. Bevisene Suzanne ga meg, sammen med beskjedene Joachim selv sendte hjalp meg videre. Terapi, zoom møter med andre foreldre og ressurser fra HPH har vært og er fortsatt viktig for meg. Informasjonen og støtten vi foreldre kan gi til hverandre på denne vanskelige vegen er avgjørende. Forrige året (2022) gjennomførte jeg et Sertifiseringskurs i sorg med David Kessler. Jeg er veldig takknemlig for å ha fått muligheten til og delta i Helping Parents Heal som en Caring Listener.

Shayna was a force while on Earth and continues to be a force after her transition. The couple has had many visits from Shayna, including sessions with mediums where she came through loud and clear. After her passing they began experiencing a series of synchronistic events that led them to Mark Ireland, Elizabeth Boisson, and Mark Pitstick. The unique connection of events was undeniable and helped them understand that it was their destiny to start a chapter of Helping Parents Heal.

Suzi Smith

I am the mother of three beautiful sons. One in spirit. In 2004 my 23-year-old son, Alex, died from suicide. This life-changing event led to a deep and dark depression, but ultimately to a life of volunteering. In an attempt to break through this depression, I began to volunteer at a local hospice. I found this work to be truly healing. I then began to volunteer with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors. I feel strongly that working with, and listening to, others helped greatly in healing my own traumatic grief. My mission now is to give hope to parents who have lost children and are in great despair. I feel that spirit led me to an interest in the afterlife which has been transformational. I have had numerous experiences with several very talented evidential mediums who were able to connect me to my son. This has opened up a world I never knew existed and a continuing relationship with my son on the other side.

I would love to help parents who question whether their pain will ever go away. I, myself, wondered that at one time. I am here to speak with, but mainly listen to, anyone who is currently walking this challenging path. I hope in the role as a Caring Listener to be able to soften the hard edges of other parents grief.

Our 16 years old son Alexander gained his wings after a traffic accident in May 2020. Alexander is an amazing in every way, always curios, funny and caring. Shortly after his passing, he began communicating through dreams, birds, and mediations. The signs gave us hope and strength to keep on going despite years of investigations, trials, and media coverage.

Alexander will forever be an important part of our lives. He is included when we set the table and his shoes are still in the hallway. We talk about him and to him every day.

We’ve always travelled frequently with Alexander and his three siblings. After the accident, we‘ve honored Alexanders love for adventure by bringing a rock with his name or #ride4alex written on it and placing it in beautiful spots. Other people have done the same. The rocks have brought us so much joy. For inspiration, please visit Alltid med | #Ride4Alex

In august 2022, we attended the amazing HPH conference for the first time. During the stay, one of us dreamt that a medium approached us, announcing a message from our son. To our surprise, that’s exactly what happened the next day. No doubt, Alexander is still with us.

HPH has meant so much to us since the accident. We would like to be there for other angel parents looking for hope and meaning.

Please join HPH Norway/Sweden that are offering joined zoom meetings approximately once a month. You are so welcome to join us.
If you need someone to talk to, reach out to Anna who’s also a Caring listener. Phone number in Sweden: +46 704185 167.

I maj 2020, fick vår 16-åriga son Alexander sina änglavingar efter att ha varit involverad i en trafikolycka. Alexander är fantastisk på så många sätt, alltid nyfiken, rolig och omtänksam. Kort efter olyckan började Alexander kommunicera genom drömmar, fåglar och meditationer. Tecknen gav oss hopp och styrka att ta oss igenom åren med förundersökningar, rättegångar och mediabevakning.

Alexander fortsätter vara en viktig del av våra liv. Vi dukar för honom och hans skor står fortfarande i hallen. Vi pratar om och med honom varje dag.

Vi har alltid rest mycket med Alexander och hans tre syskon. Efter olyckan har vi hedrat Alexanders äventyrslust genom att ta med en sten med texten Alexander eller #Ride4Alex som vi placerar på vackra platser. Andra människor har gjort det samma. För inspiration kan du titta på Alltid med | #Ride4Alex

I augusti 2022 deltog vi på den fantastiska HPH konferensen för första gången. Under vistelse hade en av oss föräldrar en dröm om att ett medium kom fram till oss och berättade om ett meddelande från vår son. Till vår stora förvåning var det precis det som hände dagen efter! Det finns inga tvivel om att Alexander fortfarande är med oss!

HPH har betytt väldigt mycket för oss sedan olyckan. Vi skulle vilja finnas där för andra änglaföräldrar som söker hopp och mening.

Gå gärna med i HPH Norway/Sweden som erbjuder zoommöten ungefär 1 gång i månaden. Varmt välkommen till oss!
Behöver du någon att prata med så är Anna också en Caring listener och kan kontaktas på tlf: +46 704185 167.

My son Chris, the oldest of my three children, transitioned on the 27th of December 2018 while on holiday in Bali with his family.  His beautiful partner Ebony tried to resuscitate him for 45 minutes. Amazingly, their oldest son Reef, 2.5 years old, who idealized his daddy and who was asleep in the room never woke up to the confusion and noise.

I believe that his guardian angels, Eb’s angels and Chris’s angels were there protecting him. I grew up in a spiritual religion and I have always believed that heaven is here all around us. I knew, although devastated, that my beautiful son was safe and happy and that he wanted us to be happy too.

Many things have confirmed my belief and even broadened it. I have spoken with mediums, felt Chris’s touch (not often) and he sends me many signs, some I ask for, some I know it’s just him. Since joining HPH I’ve learnt so much about communicating across the veil. I live in the land ‘down under’ Australia. I would love to hear from people to listen, share and help others who are also traveling this journey.

Irene Vouvalides

My best friend, my only child, my beautiful 24 year old daughter Carly Elizabeth Hughes passed to esophageal-gastric cancer on February 17th, 2013. Like so many of us who have had this devastating experience my daughter’s passing sent me on a spiritual quest. I have found friends and comfort through this remarkable group Helping Parents Heal. In the short time since Carly’s passing I have had definite proof that consciousness survives physical death, that Carly is well, and with me always. I have been fortunate to speak with mediums who were able to provide absolute evidence of the afterlife, indisputable information relayed bringing comfort and helping to lighten the heavy weight of grief. With family and Carly’s friends we have created a foundation in her honor- Carly’s Kids A Foundation For Education, I hope you will take the time to read about us and what we are doing in Carly’s memory.

Lisa Wilcoxson

I am the mom of two beautiful boys, both in spirit. Michael Angelo was born in 1988 and crossed in 2000 at the age of 12 from pneumonia. Michael was born very healthy, but had special needs due to having had a severe toxic reaction to his first DPT shot at the age of 4 weeks. Michael never spoke or walked, but taught me more about love than any other human possibly could have. He was as beautiful in life as he is in spirit, and being his mom remains to this day to be the greatest privilege I’ll ever have on this earth. Anthony is my other shining light, and I know he was born as a golden gift. Anthony was six when Michael crossed, and everything I lived for was in Anthony’s eyes. Anthony told me when he was two that he was waiting forever to be born so I could be his Mommy. Then, when he was four, he was crying. He said he was sad because he was going to leave me when he was 18. I thought he meant he was going to college. He was a freshman at Arizona State University when he transitioned from being poisoned by a synthetic drug at a party in 2013. During this dark night of my soul I was able to find my boys again in meditation, and have since learned that Spirit has chosen to use me through mediumship to prove that love never dies. My boys are at my side 24/7, and with this I’ve learned to live peacefully and joyfully having one foot on this earth plane serving Spirit and one foot in the spirit plane with them.
