I posted this in a comment under another sub Reddit but figured I’d post it here and see if anyone else had a similar experience…

No one believes me, but I know what I saw. I was in 5th grade - my parents had just divorced so my mom was in a pretty sad place…my twin and I would sleep in her bed and one night I remember not being able to sleep, I kept tossing and turning but when I turned toward my brother I remember seeing a person floating over him… clear as day, I can picture him now. An older man, doctor ( he had a stethoscope on and was listening to my brother) Grey hair, that flowed behind the ears, old small round glasses, suspenders and a bow tie… sort of early 1900’s style clothing… he turned over to me and looked me dead in the eye. FREAKED ME OUTT… the only thing I could do is cover my head under the covers. It was my first instinct. After a few seconds, I lifted the covers and he was gone. Funny thing (strange) about his hairstyle is that my hair looks exactly the same when comb it back when it’s a certain length … it flows behind my ears and parts the same was his did. Sometimes I wonder if it was me in another life… who knows

No one believes me when I tell them the story…but I know what I saw. I wasn’t dreaming… I was wide awake. I’m 39 now and can picture him clearly as I saw him that day.
