A couple of years ago I began to have trouble sleeping and was feeling very sad and lonely. I really didn't understand it and because I was in my early 50's I attributed it to the change of life, but when things worsened as time went on I began to get desparate for help. I saw a doctor and began to take some bio-identical hormones thinking that if I got myself balanced out I would feel normal again. I would say my worse complaint was the lack of sleep. I would go for a week at a time with little or not sleep at all. It began to take it's toll on me physically and mentally. I had repeated mouth uclers on my lips that lasted months at a time that would not heal. I tried every remedy I could and nothing seemed to work. When I would turn in for the night I would often never fall asleep. I would walk the house until all hours of the night. On many occassions I would sob uncontrollably for no apparent reason. This went on well over a year. Also, during this time I was having a lot of trouble with my dog. She was scared to death, panting, and running around the house pulling her tail in like something had grabbed her. When we would go out we would return to a mess all over the house and a frantic dog. We thought she was losing her senses and really thought if it continued we may have to put her down. Sometimes she would take off running down the street panic stricken and we would have to drive around and look for her and spend a good part of the night trying to calm her down. Then out of desparation I called a friend of mine who is a trance channeler. I told her I needed to try a session with her to see if she could help me with what had been going on in my life. As soon as we began our session she immediately told me I had company. I was confused and didn't understand what she was saying. She told me I had an entity that had attached itself to me and was causing the troubles I had been experiencing. She walked me through a procedure to remove it from me and told me that I had on an unconcious level allowed this lonely, sad, entity to take up residence in my body. I asked her why on earth I would do that with out conciously knowing it. She told me that because I was the kind of person who in my concious life likes to help others that my unconcious say nothing wrong with sayig yes to this poor soul. I know it sounds crazy and truthfully while she was doing the removal I didn't believe a word of it. But, what happened after is what made a believer out of me. My dog went calm, no more soiling the house, no running around in a panic or being terrifed. And as for me, not one more mouth sore, tear, or sleepless night from that day forward. I had to ask myself how could I overnight go from a year and half of no sleep, sadness, and numerous other afflictions? There just is no explanation other than for me to believe that what I was told was true. I was told to smudge the house with sage and salt the doorways. This is an old time remedy for unwanted visitors. I of course did what I was told. I feel this is an important story to share and I realize a difficult one to believe, if this helps someone who is suffering the way that I did for such a long time, than it is worth sharring. I think there are so many things out there in the world that we don't understand or know about. Keep an open mind and don't rule out anything even if it seems a stretch for you to believe.
