Mediumship and Alzheimer’s: When the Soul remembers

One of the most heartbreaking experiences in life is watching someone you love slowly disappear behind memory loss, dementia, or silence. You look at them and think, “Are they still in there? Do they still know me? Can they still feel my love?”

What I’ve learned through mediumship is this: While the mind can fade, the soul remains whole. The essence of who they are, their love, their personality, their consciousness, never disappears. So, mediumship and Alzheimer's is totally possible.

I always knew this was possible in theory. I’ve studied this concept, and I’ve heard other mediums speak about it. But I hadn’t personally brought through someone in this type of situation…until very recently.

In a reading that I’ll never forget, the mother of my sitter came through, and she is still alive, living in a care facility with Alzheimer’s. The connection was extraordinary, the evidence was overwhelming, and there was not a single doubt that her mother was with us.

She brought forward memories, details, emotions, and messages of love and healing that only a daughter and mother could share. It was one of those moments that shifts you forever.

It doesn’t stop amazing me what is possible when we believe, when we’re open, and when we surrender control.

This experience inspired me to write this blog, to help people understand what is truly happening when the mind fades… and why the soul never does.

1. The Soul exists beyond the mind. Mediumship and Alzheimer's

Alzheimer’s, dementia, coma, or any condition affecting awareness impacts the brain, not the spirit. This is why mediumship and Alzheimer’s often reveal something truly beautiful; the soul’s awareness remains untouched.

The brain is the interface, the tool we use to express ourselves in the physical world. But the soul is the eternal consciousness behind the body.

When the brain becomes quiet, confused, or unreachable, the soul does not disappear; it simply shifts into another state, one that mediums can often connect with more easily than family members who only see the physical decline.

The soul always remembers:

• love

• connection

• relationships

• emotions

• the truth of who they are

The illness affects expression, not consciousness.

✨ When the mind forgets, the soul remembers everything.

2. How Mediumship can reach them

Mediumship is not communication through words; it’s communication through energy, emotion, memory, vibration, and presence. This is why a medium can connect with someone whose physical awareness is altered.

A soul in Alzheimer’s, dementia, or coma communicates the same way any spirit would:

• through visuals

• through feelings

• through memories

• through impressions

• through their essence

As a medium, I raise my vibration to meet their consciousness, and they lower theirs to meet me. It’s like two radios tuning into the same frequency.

Mediumship doesn’t depend on:

• brain function

• memory

• speech

• physical awareness

It depends on love, soul energy, and connection.

In the case of the mother with Alzheimer’s who came through to her daughter, she did not communicate as someone “sick.”She communicated as her soul self, clear, whole, loving, and aware.

This is why the evidence is often stunning. The soul speaks from its highest, most lucid state.

3. Why their personality still comes through

People often ask: “If my loved one had Alzheimer’s, will they still sound like themselves?”

Yes, because personality is part of the soul, not the illness.

If someone were:

• gentle: they come through gentle

• private: they come through quietly

• funny: they bring humor

• talkative: their energy feels expressive

• stubborn: you’ll feel that too

The personality remains intact on the other side of illness.

Illness affects the body, and personality lives in the soul.

4. The Healing in These Connections

When a loved one in Spirit (or in an altered state of consciousness) connects through mediumship, the healing can be profound:

• They can say what they can no longer express physically.

• They can apologize, comfort, reassure, or connect.

• They can show that they still feel your love and send love back.

• They can bring validation that they are at peace within themselves.

For many families, this brings:

• closure

• peace

• relief

• softening of grief

• understanding that they are still present

Even if they cannot speak, remember, or open their eyes.

Mediumship shows us that love is not in the mind, it’s in the soul.

5. A gentle reflection

If you could speak to your loved one’s soul beyond memory, beyond illness, beyond words, what would you say?

What would you want them to know?

You can still speak to them; they can still hear you. Love always finds a way through.
