It's that place between life and death, depending upon how quickly you
die is how
long you stay in there. It is where you are between lives and can see the
future and are still in the past. Just waiting to pass into the future, but you want to hold on to the Past.
My
grandma was in purgatory for about a week before she passed on. She could see
us hear us and correspond with us, yet she could see here and correspond with those that had passed before her. She was in between worlds, just waiting for everyone here on Earth to be okay for her to pass on. And when she did, there was no communication with us, it was just the afterlife. I saw her talking to her husband, who had past 3 years prior. I heard her talking to my
father who had passed
23 years prior. She was in between worlds, and she didn't know where she belonged. It just took the final
cousin coming home to say goodbye before she could truly leave us and pass on.
