Have you ever had a weird experience immediately following the death of a loved one that made you think there is an afterlife and that the deceased person was communicating with you? (If yes, please share what you experienced with us)

I understand that it's not unusual for the grieving to "sort of" see and/or hear their loved one.... Not entirely unlike dreaming about them except they are fully awake. Out of the corner of their eye, they may see their spouse sitting in their favorite chair but when they focus there - the image is gone. Or in the dark but when the lights are turned on, nothing. Some think the nearly universal belief in ghosts comes from this occasional psychological function of grief. I've never experienced this... or known anyone who has said they have.
