Jessica and i have been friends for a long time, millions of years it seems. Her father John had been sick for a long time before he died. I remember watching her be by his side for as long as possible, those two were so close and he was a kind and loving father. Naturally, when he passed i wanted to be there for my friend, and although there where significant messages and affirmations on the day of his passing and surrounding it, plus lots of stuff even while he was sick, what happened a few weeks later was the nuttiest and most heart warming of all.
At that time i was still not public with my mediumship abilities, only the people closest to me knew. However, I was still getting up in front of groups as a storyteller, and before that it was standup and improv comedy. So one night shortly after Johns passing I decided to tell the story about Jessica and what happened the day her dad died. This was the first time i was going to talk openly about this aspect of me. I self promoted as always and put the time and date on Facebook, but did not put what the story was about, I was probably hoping no one would show up, so that no one would think that I was crazy. I didn't tell anyone personally, not even Jessica, and as far as i knew she was in still in Colorado celebrating the end of her dads life with family and helping her mom and brother.
You could imagine my great big surprise when five min before the Story show started Jessica walked right through the door. She actually did live in CA, but Orange County was fifty miles from me, which if you live where we do that might translate to a two hour drive. It was a Wednesday and the storytelling started at 7pm so this would have definitely been true of that evening. Jessica has never been to one of my storytelling nights ever in the years I had been doing it. She absolutely did not know that I was going to talk about her and her father at all. When I asked her what possessed her to come to this she said "I just had this deep sense that I needed to go". Well, I am sure glad she followed her intuition, and that traffic complied, because after my story was finished I was able to ad a spontaneous epilogue; Jessica herself. I made her stand up so everyone could see. Everyone clapped and smiled for her, which to me was her dad saying to Jessica "good job, thanks for taking care of me, you deserve a standing ovation" and "thanks for coming and listening to OUR story." The heart knows best we really should learn to follow it ❤️Leisa Mills
