My question to my niece after this true story is, "How can you sleep at night"?

Recently, my niece and her recently engaged boyfriend moved in with his grandmother (who was some ninety years old and very sick) in Eastpointe, Michigan to live and care for her.

The grandmother had recently made the decision to expire at her home. This happened on my nieces's watch.

During this period, a "dark apparition" would appear in the house. The apparition would appear and disappear without notice. It was visible to anyone or anything present. For example, the dogs would bark at it when it was present.

They contacted the local church authorities (Catholic) to have the apparition investigated and a nun was sent to the house. The nun did observe the apparition just like everybody else did. The nun asked the apparition to leave if it was a bad spirit, but told it it was welcome to stay if friendly. Receiving no answer, the apparition stayed in the house and the nun assumed that the spirit (or apparition) was neither good nor bad and was just neutral. It was noted that the grandmother's son had expired before her and it is thought it may have been his spirit. He passed away from cancer.

For the last two weeks of her life, the grandmother could not move nor speak nor even open her eyes and just laid in bed with my niece watching over her. The apparition was present at times in the room with her.

On the last day of her life, the grandmother sat bolt upright and started talking to my niece and the apparition as well. She then passed away.

The apparition has not been seen in the house since her death.

This is a true story.
