In "Beyond Knowing", Dr. Amatuzio goes beyond simply telling the
comforting and amazing stories of experiences and connections
between loved ones after a person has died. She suggests that these
are life-changing moments for the living and demonstrates that
these connections make life on earth more satisfying. These
experiences, and the stories in this book, help the living focus on
the important things in life. As Dr. Amatuzio says, 'People hear
these stories and something in them wakes up, or it's as if they
remembered something they already knew'. The stories contained in
this book are arranged around the themes of connections to loved
ones and demonstrating our love while we can.One story relates the
easing of pain when a woman hears her dead husband's favorite song
on the radio, and she has the sensation that they are actually
dancing together again. Other stories include the Monarch
butterflies who attend the funeral of Brianna, who loved
butterflies, who was killed by a car on her thirteenth birthday. A
sick dog helped an elderly grandmother recover from a hip fracture
and then found a way to sleep beside her one last time; a man going
for routine surgery sends a final message to his wife before his
untimely death; and, the most amazing story in the collection, the
man who 'met' the donor of his kidney on the ceiling of the
operating room and then knew the donor's name and sought out his
family, closing a circle of love.As in "Forever Ours", the stories
are told with grace and calm, the voice of the compassionate
coroner making them personal and universal at the same time.
Through these encounters, she has heard many stories of
communication and the responses, and this book offers those stories
to a wider audience.
