[QUOTE="donna723, post: 175728, member: 1883"] Linda, I think I have the same kind of "useless ESP". I usually know when the phone is going to ring before it actually does, I have a pretty good idea who it is and whether it's good news, bad news, etc. And I'm on my feet heading for the kitchen a few seconds [I]before[/I] the oven timer goes off ... stuff like that. And it's only happened a few times in my life, but I have "heard" the voices of family members in my ear - only the ones I was extremely close to and apparently in moments when they were in great distress. When my daughter was a baby, I was awakened from a sound sleep by my fathers loud voice calling my name right in my ear. He was in Tennessee and I was in Orlando! It prompted me to go visit him with my daughter, and he died less than two days after we returned home! So weird! And when I lived in Tennessee and my daughter had moved back to Orlando to work, I very clearly heard her voice calling, "Mama!" She was having a lot of problems back then and never would tell me what happened, but I know that something did! And the weirdest one of all ... three years ago my son made a suicide attempt and was in the Critical Care Unit in a coma and on a ventilator. He was starting to come around but had developed a bit of pneumonia and they were trying to keep him sedated for a while longer till the pneumonia cleared. I was staying in the family lounge, it was about 2:00 a.m., I was exhausted but wide awake, and I [I]heard[/I] someone making this choking, sputtering, angry garbled noise - I [I]knew[/I] it was my son. I just sat there and waited for the phone call. And about ten minutes later the CCU was calling to tell me that he had pulled out the ventilator tube (very painful!) and that he was awake and talking! I was in the [I]first[/I] floor family lounge and he was in the [I]seventh[/I] floor CCU of a huge hospital! But I heard him! Feel free to insert "Twilight Zone" theme here .... Other than stuff like that, I'm a very ordinary run-of-the-mill person with no outstanding characteristics at all - I blend in to the wallpaper. [/QUOTE]
