Ghost Chronicles: Part 2

March 2/3

I suppose I deserved this visit from my ghost (If one of them, because I think that there's 2 now, is my grandma). I said one of those things that scare your family and friends. I had a bad infection and I had been feeling really crappy, the right side of my face had swollen up. The family was over making room for Ryan and Liz to move in and I started out with the right side of my lips going numb and it then proceeding up my face. Most of us are medical professionals and know that I was having one of the symptoms of a stroke, so it was a trip to the emergency room to make sure that I wasn't. Apparently, I scared my ghost too. Because after I got home, I saw the ghost again. I'd convinced my parents that I could sleep by myself because we knew I wasn't going to have a stroke, so they dropped me off at home and I'd crawled into bed and to sleep. I laid down and at some point during the night I had rolled over and saw a smoking comet (anyone who knows my grandma would know how she loved her smokes) streaking across the ceiling above my bed. Then I had a little break from my ghost. I don't remember what day it was, but I was taking a nap before work one day and I felt something stroking my hair, even though I was alone.

Fast forward to last night. I was sleeping with my bedroom door shut and I swear that I heard it click open. Then I felt something jump up into bed with me, like a cat (and there has never been a shortage of cats in this house until now), and walk around the bed for a minute and then jump off. Nightmare, I miss you buddy, but please leave me alone while I sleep.
