Partner left after 9 yrs - 18months on, reunited !

I know that not everyone believes in this stuff but here goes. My grandmother and I, though not blood related, were kindred spirits. We adored each other and our bond was very special. I found out she had cancer when I was pregnant with D11. She told me she was holding on to see the baby (I didn't find out until later that she told each of her kids a slightly different tale...waiting for one more birthday, one more Chrismas and so on).

I was scared to have the baby thinking I would lose my grandmother soon after. Gladly she got to hold her great-granddaughter and lived almost another year. When she passed I was devasted and would go to her grave to speak with her. Often I would cry and ask her to come back to me.

As I mentioned I needed fertility drugs for each of my first 3. She passed just before D11's first birthday(which she happens to share with my youngest aunt...another bond with Grandma). Anyway I was feeling awful right at Chrismas time. I felt dizzy and as if a flu was coming on. Took all sorts of cold meds. I didn't even realize until January that I was late. It seems as if my Grandmother sent a bit of herself to me so I wouldn't miss her so much. Even when they did the first sonogram(an internal one) they thought there might be twins. I was saying oh, no! I forgot Granma was a twin. I just wanted her back, not Uncle Gene too!!

I was due one month after my birthday. However I asked God for a sign. If this was Grandma coming back could she come on her wedding anniversary, just 2 weeks after my birthday? Went I went to the Dr., he said I wouldn't make it to the weekend even. He was on call the next day and wanted to deliver her. I asked if we couldn't maybe wait one more day as that would have been the anniversary. He said it was up to me. So she is one day off but I think I would have had her all on my own close to then anyway as I was 5cm when I went to the hospital that day. So as far as I am concearned, I have a bit of Grandma with me in D9.

Sorry for the hijack Ali.
