Reviewer Joyce Oscar: Growing up in Memphis Tennessee, Joyce seems to have always had stories and rhymes in her head. This graduate of Mercer believes that poetry has the inimitable power to re-create the human experiences like falling in love, losing love, facing death and disease, losing faith and courage, and finding God. Poems transform the everyday into a creative journey through our imaginations.

Friday nights would not have been the same for me without one of my favorite shows, The Ghost Whisperer. This show follows life of a young woman who has the ability to see and communicate with ghosts. She tries to live as normal a life as possible while helping earthbound spirits resolve their problems and cross over into the spirit world. I know many have seen this show or one just like it. Did you ever wonder how it would be to actually live a menacing life of talking to spirits. Well Maureen Hancock, author of The Medium Next Door: Adventures of a Real-Life Ghose Whisperer, knows about it first hand. She relives the experiene each day.

Since I am a fan of the show, you can imagine my excitement when I got the chance to read and review this book. Much like the TV series, this book takes you through the daily lifestyle of Maureen and answers questions about how she discovered her gift. Her near death experience as a child opened up something that allowed her to see spirits. She gives an account of lying in her bed as a child and watching a young woman walk around her room. She could not decide if she was a ghost or a real person. Realizing that her sisters were asleep and not seeing what she was seeing, she pulled the covers over her head and tried to ignore it.

The incidents did not stop there; she was actually given a sign that her grandmother would experience a heart attack through a picture on the wall in their home. While visiting with her sister in the hospital, she befriended a young boy named John. John was a quadriplegic and could not communicate like everyone else but he had unspoken communication with young Maureen daily. Of course she could not mention this to anyone for fear they would think she was weird. After another tragic accident happened when she was in her early twenties, she could not only see the spirits, but she could hear them as well.

In her adult-life, Maureen has helped numerous people reconnect with their loved ones that have moved on. In The Medium Next Door, she talks about grief, hope and the healing process after the death of a loved one. She also tells about her investigative work for missing children and her Postcards from Heaven events, which are messages from the dead that she passes along. Even if you do not believe in spirits and their presence around us, this is a great book and I would definitely recommend it readers.
