I saw a ghost - really

l was never a believer in ghosts, as I had never seen any myself.

That all changed last Friday. I saw my deceased wife, as clearly as could be.

I phoned a neighbour, and without telling her anything, asked her to come over quickly and look in the bedroom. I hadn't moved from where I was sitting, so everything stayed the same.

My neighbour came right away and saw the exact same thing I did. The only difference was the ghost let her come into the bedroom without disappearing, and sit beside her. She did not talk.

Next, my neighbour's daughter came over, and when her mom left the bedroom, she went in. This time, the ghost talked to her with some instructions of what she wanted to be done with some of her things. While this was going on, I just stayed at my desk, near the chesterfield, in the RV that I live in.

In the corner of my eye, I thought I saw something on the chesterfield move. There was nothing there.

Turned back to the computer, and there it was again. This time, I did not turn my head, just looked out the corner of my eye and saw my dog lying there looking up at me. If I turned my head toward him, he instantly disappeared.

When I turned my head back toward the computer, he appeared and I could see just a slice of him that my peripheral vision would allow, which was enough to know it was my dog. When I tried to touch him, he disappeared, and that was the last I saw of him.

Later, I talked to my sister-in-law, wife's sister, in Edmonton. Before I had a chance to tell her about what happened here, she said: "I saw Sandy." 

Whoa... it must be true. And Sandy was wearing the same clothes as she was here.
