Elderly Woman Always With Me

I am a fifty year old grandmother who has had some very specific and unusual experiences since I was 6 (that's as far back as I remember). As young children my two sisters, my mother, and I lived in an old house with our maternal grandparents in the country where there weren't street lights so after dark it was really dark outside. We didn't have a very good mother (she didn't care much for us, she just wanted to do her own thing with men) and she would slip out the window while my grandparents were sleeping, usually for the whole night. After she would leave, an elderly woman (who I didn't recognize at first) would make her way down the hall to our bedroom and just stand in the room with us. My sisters never woke up at all. She would "talk to me" without saying anything. I always found comfort in her voice and presence.

Before long there were many people in the room, I became scared and I wanted her to leave. She never would though. I honestly believe she was trying to tell me that she would be with me my whole life as she needed me. I completely forgot this woman until 2007 when I was involved in a traumatic car accident.

After several surgeries I had to have my right leg amputated because of infection and it almost cost me my life because I waited so long to tell anyone my fever was 104. Doctors told me had I waited another hour to get help I would have died.

This woman is back in my life now. I see her all the time, my granddaughter sees and hears her. My daughter recently abandoned her three children with me and I have cancer. I'm confused though. Why is she back? I'm in no way scared of her and neither is my granddaughter but she has brought friends with her and the activity in my house is incredible! Tangible things are disappearing, including crystals given to me by an earth witch and I really want these things back. I know I'm a strong person because I'm an amputee who now has a 15 year old, an 8 year old, and a 1 year old I will never put in foster care. I just would like to know why this woman (who I know isn't my spirit guide) is back. Does she want something from me or is she trying to comfort me?

I'm not that religious but I do go to church and I am very spiritual and do get impressions from things others can't see or hear.
