2 yr old sees deceased grandmother - Death & Dying Message Board

I started crying so badly when my baby brought me a picture of my grandmother "nanoo" and I asked him who that was and he said "my nanoo". Not once have I ever told him about his nanoo. She passed away 1 month before he was born. He hasn't even really started talking yet and it took me by surprise. Now he is saying nannie, nanoo, mam-maw, (all deceased grand mothers). That is not even all.....I was in his room w/him and one of his toys went off by itself. I didn't think anything of it at first, then it went off 2 more times and you have to press it hard to get it to talk. Then I was outside at night taking the dogs out and my baby had already went to bed. The bathroom light next to his room turned on then off. It wasn't my hubby cause he was in Iraq. I know she has to be talking to him cause how would he have known her nickname and known what she looked like. Plus he will sit up and his bed and talk to himself. I have even addressed this issue on the Sylvia Brown website. Call me a quack, but I truelly believe now.

Children are much more open to such things because they havent been taught that it is kooky yet. I know that my youngest daughter was and still is at 17 in touch with her uncle and my mom. I refused to let anyone tell her it wasn't ok... Just let your baby talk about it.. make sure he knows that it is ok and you are interested. Simply support his clarity.

I for one compleatly belive in "talking" thats what i call it... i am 17 years old and i still talk to "ghosts" i know its illegal to do some of the things i do i.e. enter abandoned homes. but i do it all the time and its almost like the memories them selves are the "ghost" and they can "possess" you in a way rather they just kind of show you things from their life they make you feel. its quite extraordinary. but its true never tell your son that its wrong. because its not. its great. theres so many things that they want to say and do and its always a great and interesting experience. im sorry if im not helping, but i am truely interested.

love,
