Patrick Swayze's Wife: "I Feel Him Here"

October 30, 2009


Just a month and a half after Patrick Swayze's death, his widow, Lisa Niemi, is opening up about his passing.

In an interview with Oprah Winfrey airing Friday, Lisa says that when Patrick starred in Ghost, she thought she would never want to be contacted from beyond the grave like in the movie. But she's changed her mind. "Now I'm like, 'Please show yourself. I would love to see you.'"

Lisa explained that watching her husband die was different than the experiences she's had with losing animals on their ranch.

"I felt them leave their bodies and it's always been a light and free feeling because they were out of pain," she said of the animals. "I was wondering if I would feel the same thing with Patrick. And I didn't. I didn't feel him leave when he actually stopped breathing."

Now, she says, "I feel him here. I feel like he hasn't left. I can feel every contour of his hand in mine."

I am sure he is still with you Lisa, in the spirit world. Stay faithful to Patrick and keep your love pure for him. You will be together with him soon in the spirit world. As soon as he passed, a few of us prayed for Patrick. If you leave him for another guy, you will break his heart, so stay faithful FOREVER!
