About this audiobook

Dr. Elisa Medhus never believed in life after death. As an accomplished physi­cian, she placed her faith in science. All of that changed after her son Erik took his own life and then reached out from the other side.



Intimate, heartbreaking, and illuminating, this book takes listeners on an incredible journey from grief and skepticism to healing and belief. Based on Medhus's wildly popular blog, Channeling Erik, My Son and the Afterlife provides answers to the most universal questions of being human.

At once tragic and uplifting, Erik speaks from the other side with candor, wisdom, and depth as he describes his own experiences and provides new answers about the nature of souls, death, and the afterlife—answers that have the potential to change our lives forever.

Ratings and reviews

I just buried my daughter January 3rd 2019 I went through a lot of the same things this mother went through and I decided enough was enough as well and that's when I started reading and that's when I found this book I highly recommend it to any grieving mother so you can stop grieving and start centering and focusing and communicating our babies are okay they are in heaven everything will be alright but you have to read for yourself.
