This mattering might be from my narrow human perspective where time is linear. I really like seeing the people I love as often as possible. But I also asked if there might be something that, you know, encourages them to appear.

And then I asked if the hill in the afterlife was limited to people who had been on it in Earth life.

I talked to Libby about a week after John Paul's passing, and she said his friends that were seeing him were saying that he looked ginormous. I mean, he already was gigantic in life. But his friends were saying he looked to be 10 feet tall, and he was surrounded by children and lived in a cabin by the sea. And it was just so hard to imagine that John Paul had, like, a life in another dimension.

And then things got even more fascinating. Earlier, you met Libby's good friend Jay Watson, the journalist. The week John Paul died, Jay was in the midst of producing an upcoming episode for her show, which was featuring wounded warriors. One of the veterans was a woman named Becky, and Jay had to call her to set up an interview just days before John Paul passed.

I lost my speech. And Becky ended up having a grand mal seizure that caused her to die in the hospital.

Stacks of research validate that often when people have a near-death experience, they have unexplained gifts afterward, things like telepathy or precognition and the ability to see spirits. In short, they're a bit more similar to the non-speakers you've met.

Becky's story is similar to those of accidental savants, people who acquire extraordinary abilities like music or math following a brain injury. One example of this is a guy named Jason Padgett. He was a futon salesman, and after a head injury during a robbery, he began seeing math everywhere.

visualizing complex geometric pattern and fractals in everyday objects like flowing water or tree branches. What's kind of validating about Becky, though, is that she validates Dr. Powell's hypothesis that ESP should be considered a savant skill.

If scientists recognize that savant skills like math or language, art, music can be acquired through head trauma, then spiritual gifts like Becky's deserve the same acknowledgement.

The history of mediums and psychics is a sordid one. It's littered with charlatans and frauds who take advantage of innocent and vulnerable people. But just like the research into telepathy, there's a mound of research about legitimate people with these gifts. And Becky was one of those people.

She's not doing this for personal gain or profit. She doesn't even want people to know her. She shares messages only if someone from the other side makes the effort to connect and not the other way around. And seemingly, John Paul made the effort.
