when my nephew died.

She was 15 at the time and, since it was summer and school was out, she was staying with my brother, his wife, and their two boys, ages 2 and 3. The 2 year old had terminal cancer, but the doctors expected him to live at least until October. He needed to go into the hospital occasionally for a day ot two for treatments. My sister was there to look after the 3 year old while my brother and SIL were busy with the 2 year old. She slept on a cot in the kids' room.

One night when the 2 year old, Jimmy, was in the hospital, my sister woke up and saw the 3 year old sitting up in bed talking. She asked who he was talking to and he said, "Jimmy." She thought he was dreaming and "sleep talking." Or, that he had just awakened and was confused by a dream. She told him Jimmy was in the hospital like before, but he would come home again in the morning.

He insisted that Jimmy had come to see him and was sitting on his bed. He said that Jimmy came to say good bye because he couldn't come home any more.

About 10 minutes later, the hospital called to say that Jimmy had passed away.

So, did my nephew see and hear his brother's ghost? My sister didn't see or hear anything except the 3 year old.
