That's supposed to mean clairvoyance.
My paternal grandmother was born "with a veil".
She never drove and got picked up to come to the house for holidays until she eventually moved in with us.
I was very young, but I remember she stood up from the table at Thanksgiving and told my dad he needed to bring her home right away because her house was being robbed.
He talked her out of it but sure enough, when he brought her later that evening, her front window was broken and her house had been robbed.
She was absolutely 100% certain of it when she said it, no doubt in her mind.

I'm not as good as your grandmother, but I've had instances where I have been shown the future. Mostly in dreams, sometimes in conscious visions. All of them are at completely random times in the future, and all of which happen before a stressful event in my life. I guess it's more of a preparation vision.
I might have what a lot of people call a "deja vu" dream about a random conversation, and shortly after that conversation comes to fruitition, word for word, just like the dream, something will happen in my life like losing a loved one to death, a car wreck, house fire, etc. every single time, when the events in the dream happen, something terrible happens in my life.
It's probable that your grandmother honed her skill, and that's why she was able to know about the burglary of her house as it was happening. I was terrified of my abilities when I was younger, and consequently my grandmother prayed that God take my gift away. I had a stretch of 2-3 years without any visions or seeing any spirits, but it slowly started coming back to me when I was 19.

The only other thing I remember was her telling every female relative whether they were having a boy or a girl with 100% accuracy - never wrong one single time.
She congratulated my aunt on being pregnant before my aunt knew she was pregnant.

Last week, my daughter was watching tv in her bouncer. I had just cleaned up the living room so I know there was nothing on the floor. I was in the other room and heard a thump. I looked in the living room and it was a shoe beside her on the floor. No way it was there before the thump.
Just yesterday a toy that was in my oldest step daughters room somehow appeared on my ole lady's Chrysler town and country drivers seat. She hadn't been out the house all day and the toy was in her room. How the toy made it from inside the house tongue drivers seat......
Thanks for the detailed accounts.
For the first one how much range of movement does your kid have in the jumper?
For the second one, do you perhaps have two of the same toy?
TIA

Thought about that, but she doesn't. This was a Charlie Brown toy. She only had one, and we looked where it last was in the house and it was not there.

born in what the old timers say "veil over my eyes"
My mother was born under a veil/caul. She was able to find lost things. Actually had friends & neighbors ask her to come over and help look when they lost important papers, jewelry, etc. She once found a relative's lost wedding ring in another relative's long gravel driveway. Just walked straight to it from 20-30 feet away & picked it up.
Now that she has passed away, there have been SO many times I'll be searching for something lost. I'll run around, looking everywhere for it, asking my kids where it is. Then I'll come back to a place I'd searched thoroughly before & the item I'm looking for is out in plain sight right in the open, where I wouldn't have possibly missed it had it been there 1-2 minutes before. Like on the floor right in my path. It's happened about 12-15 times in 3 years. I don't have a good explanation for it.
My daughter (born 6 weeks after my mom passed away) was born encauled, so I'm curious to know if it'll affect her.
There's other strange stuff surrounding my mom and daughter, but the veil discussion I had to chime in on.

My co-worker believes his house is haunted. A lot of footsteps from the attic and doors slamming in the middle of the night. Idk humans are energy and matter, that has to go somewhere when they die.

My father was over maintenance at the Baptist Hospital in Jackson for many years (1954- maybe 2001) starting when the old hospital was there and continuing on maybe ten years into the new hospital when it was built. He eventually retired and passed away two years ago.
One weekend when I was maybe 19 (before they demolished the old hospital) we were at his office in the new hospital one weekend and he needed to pull a bracket from a wall in the old the old building. He asked if I would go with him and so we went through the tunnel under North State street into the old hospital and up stairs to a patient floor.
Dad was unscrewing a bracket from the wall and I was standing just inside the room watching him when I heard a shuffling noise, stepped out into the hallway and clearly saw a large black man come out of a room on our side of the hallway, walk across and go into the room directly across the hallway. He was wearing white pants and shirt and black shoes, like an orderly. He looked my way and then turned his head back toward the room. He did not acknowledge my presence in any way, other than to make eye contact and then turn away. I remember thinking what a blank look he had on his face. Room doors were open up and down the hallway and it was not really dark. I am 100% certain what I saw.
I remember shouting something and running three doorways down the hall and into the room he had gone into. It was another Patient room, small and absolutely empty. He was not there. My Dad followed me and then as we stood in the empty room he told me about Ben, the orderly. He said that most of the maintenance men had seen him at some point on various floors in the oldest wing of the building. Ben had died at work in maybe 1960 and began showing up when the new hospital opened and the old hospital was deserted. Dad knew Ben well when He was alive but had never seen him.
He said that 2 of his men refused to enter the old wing of the deserted hospital at all. He said there were two other spirits who roamed the building. He said they were more prevalent at times and that they had a hard time keeping security guards for the old building.
I went back with him a few more times and we never saw Ben again or the two others who were there. Eventually the Clarion Ledger did a story about Ben and the people who had seen him. I was away from Jackson by then and they did not interview me.
So there you have it.

One of my stories is my mom had a dream about my grandma who has passed and she woke up with a bunch of my grandma's stuff laying next to her in bed. Another morning my mom woke up and saw a dark cloud over my dad and she hurried up and tried to go back to sleep, and my dad got into an accident that morning.
Another story is my brother took a picture of his wife laying on the couch and a lamp is floating in the picture that got developed. And I guess in the days around when that picture was taken, my sister in law was in her bedroom and felt and knew that someone or something was in the room with her but didn't see anyone, but she knew somebody was in the room. She covered herself with a blanket and felt whatever it was move the blanket. Days later she finds out she lost her unborn child.
And lastly, me and my friends would tape each other with a video camera late at night when we would stay the night just goofing off at my friends house. We would sit it on top of the TV and record ourselves. Well one night, my friends were doing the same thing and you can just see them sitting on the couch watching TV and a dark shadowy hand reaches over the couch right next to my friends head, and all the lights are on. And then not too many minutes after that you see a black shadow crawl across the floor really quick. And it was about the size of a toddler but it crawled across the screen really fast. We watched that video over and over and don't know what it was. They had no idea anything was happening and there was nobody else around because they were on camera the whole time with all the lights on.

I believe you. I had what sounded like an outdated musical instrument start playing in the middle of the night and it woke up the entire house. It was coming from nothing, from above an old chair. I cut that chair to pieces looking for a source of the noise but there was nothing there. It made the hair on the back of my neck stand up, and woke up the wife and kids instantly. I happened to be awake when it started.
It abruptly stopped about two hours later and has never happened again.

Any way to post those videos to the interwebz and then link them here?

The video was in the mid 90's on vhs. And I haven't talked to the guy who owns the tape in probably 15 years.
I know that the picture of the lamp floating in the picture (probably late 90's) was trashed by my brother because it upsetted my sister in law since it was a reminder of her having a miscarriage.
Are there any good youtube videos of ghosts? I used to always try to find videos that would convince me some more about ghosts existence, but couldn't ever find any. I've seen pictures but not videos

As I said, interesting things about my daughter and mom (who never met on earth).
1. A week before my daughter was born (mom had died about 4-5 weeks earlier) I dreamt that my mom was showing me the baby lying there in my stomach, like I could look down and see thru my skin. After she was born via C section, the doctor seemed almost shaken, even though she was a very experienced OB. She said when she cut thru the first layers of skin, she could see the baby just lying there, the caul still intact, still connected to me. You could tell it freaked her out a little. And the baby looked just like my dream.
2. The baby was born at the exact same hour and minute of the evening my mother gave birth to me. We were languishing in the hospital room for awhile pre-op, were told it would be a couple hours, then all of a sudden, we're rushing in. No explanation, no emergency, a room just opened up. But when the nurse announced the birth time, I knew what the sudden hurry had been. The baby had to be born at that very minute, evidently.
3. In lieu of a white noise machine in the baby's room, I played a CD of old songs, one of which my mom used to sing to me all the time. I set the player to random & repeat. For the 18 months we had that CD playing, that song played ALL THE TIME. I might only go into the nursery 4 times all day, but if I did, I heard that song every time. Once, the song ended and started again, playing back to back. And it seemed to get slightly louder for that song. Once, I had the baby in the kitchen and her monitor suddenly started up from her room. It was that song playing, no other sudden noise in the room (and the player played constantly, whether we were in the room or not.) Suffice to say, it was weird, but it didn't bother me.
