Everybody leaves this life at some point, it's only temporary and the spirit lives on....happens every minute of every day for 1000's and 1000's of years....if you're afraid to go somewhere where someone has died, well you have bigger issues.

BTW, better stay away from the hospital, and the OR for that matter...lots of people die there everyday....

The way she died makes a huge difference. I would not have a problem with someone passing from old age in their home. In fact my mother n law passed away from old age in her home. I was there with her when she passed.

Since then I have both been in the house hundreds of times and even slept there many. Yes, I thought about it but everything was fine.

Now, if it were the scene of a grisly murder, I personally would pass.

That's just me....good luck!

Sheesh. Until I read this, I never thought about it, but three family members have died at home in my mother's house where I live right now. My grandmother, my aunt and my dad. Right in the room I'm sitting in as a matter of fact. Not natural causes (stroke/cancer/ALS). I'll bet lots of homes have had owners die at home.

Good point.

But, just to nitpick --- stroke, ALS, and cancer are natural causes. Maybe premature in the modern sense but certainly natural.

Gone are the days of women dying at age 40 (or much younger) in childbirth and men dying in large numbers on the battlefield.

Natural causes wouldn't bother me........suicide and/or murder would. When I was looking at houses I looked at one where the owner had committed suicide (I didn't know or I wouldn't have even looked). It was a creepy house with a dirt basement and the realtor didn't disclose it but I wasn't interested! I found out later and I hope he disclosed it to whomever bought it.

I am not actually sure WHAT I believe, but I have been personally present at two deaths. I also helped prepare my sisters body (makeup, hair, nails) because we knew the pros would make her look like an old lady.

Those experiences have taught me that death is something that happens to everyone who had the privelidge of living.

It wouldn't bother me, but I think our own minds are very powerful and will determine how you experience this:

a. non event

b. benign but spirtual

c. weird/creepy haunting

....Stayed a few more nights and nothing even remotely strange like that happened again.

I guess you drank all of the Tequila the 1st night? :)

yes.

But I do think like everyone else that if it was a murder I would probably want to maybe get the sleeping bag and check it out before hand.

The experience that Dub mentioned I have had before, along with waking up with the lights on in my house that were OFF when I went to sleep. The lights was twice, that was weird.

I also have felt someone sit on the bed next to me. I woke up and could kind of "sense" who it was and why he was there.

I believe its possible but I was never scared.

I've lived in a couple places where someone has passed. Nothing ever happened.

My ex-boyfriend is a realtor and told me some states, but not all, require they reveal if a person has died on a property before they sell it. Unless you're living in relatively new construction, there's a good chance many of us have lived in a home where someone died. Dying of old age at home doesn't sound like a big deal really.

I assume you've toured the place? If it was "haunted," whoever is managing the property would probably have trouble with upkeep. Same ex-boyfriend told me he knows which houses in our area are haunted. Maybe one or two people buy them and dump them shortly after. Then they stay vacant. The yards are a mess and simple repairs aren't made because whoever is hired to do that work quits quickly and suddenly.

If the place looks like it's been kept up, that's probably a good sign.

There is a reason your drawn to this place and I wouldn't give up on it over a death. Even If you live in new construction there is a chance of a death on the land it is what it is.

As to haunted houses, I live in central Kentucky and know of a couple of "haunted houses" that are old but very well kept up and quite nice. I guess it depends on the nature of the "haunting"!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
