I’ve heard about a lot of things when people transition from this life (i.e. vivid dreams of their loved ones, cold sensations embracing their bodies and more) but I had never heard of the Soul Mist until this past Sunday when my beloved cousin Joel made his transition.  My sister and brother performed CPR on my cousin Joel while waiting for the EMS to arrive.  They performed CPR for about 12 minutes and once EMS was there, they took over and continued to work on him for another hour.  Unfortunately EMS was unable to resuscitate him.  Later I spoke with my sister on the phone and she said “Cynthia I’m not sure what I saw, but while performing CPR on Joel I remember seeing a white puff of air come from his mouth.  It didn’t look like smoke, but more like a vapor”.  She then said that she asked my brother if he saw it too, he agreed.  They stayed up that night on the phone until about 5am reliving the whole situation.  I also stayed up researching what this could have been.  I reached out to my brother the following morning with an email where I included some information on “Soul Mist”.  His email response to me was ” I wasn’t going to say anything because I didn’t want (my sister) to think I was going out my mind but I’m thankful she saw it”.

The “Soul Mist” from what I researched is:

” In her journal, Louisa May Alcott, (below) the author of Little Women, wrote of being present at a deathbed and watching “a light mist” rise from the body, float up and vanish in the air.  Her mother saw the same thing and the attending physician told them that it was “the life” departing visibly.”

I also read this:

“that soul mist might be discharged quickly by some dying people – those better prepared to leave their bodies—and be very slowly discharged by most people, so slow that it isn’t noticeable”

This is all so new to me but yet comforting as well.  So I walk away somehow knowing For Sure that my cousin Joel is still with us, just in a different form.  Thank you Joel for continuing to keep us informed.  Bless You!
