?Steven, I am so very sorry for the loss of your beloved. Words can not express the loss you are feeling. The only thing I or any of us can say is we are terribly sorry, and I know she¡¯s not in pain any longer. Personally I have researched Paranormal Activity for almost 20 years. I hear the same things after a loved one passes. Don¡¯t feel as she¡¯s gone, still talk to her. It sounds crazy I know, and I don¡¯t want to cause you pain. However I have heard over and over that our loved ones will give you signs that they are with you and they are alright. When my grandma passed I was in a terrible state. I kept finding dimes everywhere. Also I kept smelling a certain perfume. After a little time passed where I could think, I realized the dimes my nanny collected silver dimes and wheat pennies. And the smell, she wore (spelling)?Chennel #5. I have heard her audibly, and have had dreams that were so real. I know your heart is raw, but she loves you from here to eternity and back. You will be with her again and she will know everything you are going through. May the gods bless you and your family in the coming days. ???

My girlfriend Marion died this morning. She hadn't wanted it generally known, but she was diagnosed with what what described as "a rare syndrome based on an underlying dementia."
?
The specific condition is known as Posterior Cortical Atrophy, and a reasonable shorthand definition is "Alzheimer's that starts by affecting the visual cortex." In the three years since her diagnosis, she
had lost much of her mental and physical capabilities. Although she could still converse, she had trouble finding the correct words, and physically, she was effectively?blind (her?eyes were still good, but her?brain couldn't interpret the incoming data), and
could no longer take care of herself.
?
Last night, she got part of her dinner caught in her throat. I tried the Heimlich maneuver without success and called 911. We have a fire station a few blocks away, so the EMTs were there almost immediately.
They were also unsuccessful with unblocking her airway.

Marion suffered a cardiac arrest on the way to the hospital, but they were able to restart her heart and stabilize her once she was in the ER. Around 1 am, they called me to come to the hospital because her
blood pressure had dropped significantly, and they felt she didn't have long. Her heart stopped again just before 3 am, and she did not respond to CPR.
?
New Years would have marked 25 years that we'd been together. I'm going to miss her so much.
