All at once she got an answer
Sheri Emerson's grandmother died in 2011. She was buried with her cell phone. One day the shock: The young woman receives a text message from her grandmother.
Lesley Emerson was only 59 years old when she passed away in June 2011 due to a cancer. Her family buried her on her cell phone because Lesley was passionate about writing text messages.
After the funeral of her beloved grandmother and mother, her relatives sometimes continued to text her. It helped them to process their grief. Of course, they never received an answer. Lesley Emerson's cell phone had been deregistered.
Last week, an SMS sent Lesley's granddaughter Sheri Emerson a huge shock: for she did not receive a message from any acquaintance, but a message from her deceased grandmother : "I watch over you and everything will get better, you can do it."
A message from the hereafter? At first, Sheri does not know how she is doing. After all, no one in her family had ever expected to get an answer to his news. But there it was at once: an answer that was sent by a phone number that should never be used again, according to the statement of the mobile operator o2.
The situation could, however, clear up. In fact, no supernatural powers were at work. When Sheri contacts the person who wrote the text message, she finds out that o2 has forgiven her grandmother's number again.
So the SMS was not sent from the hereafter, but from a young man, who thought that his answer was just a joke with his friends. He apologized to Sheri.
According to the Shields Gazette, the family is stunned that o2 has re-awarded the phone number of her grandmother, contrary to the insurance, not to do it. However, the mobile service provider is now trying to get the number back.
