I had known Rafał for several years. I knew him as a young helpful neighbor from my street,as well a young husband and father. But for several months ,for some unknown reason, he acted as if he didn’t know me. I saw him with some very young girl with chaotic movement and bad face.
For several days, I have heard from neighbors that Rafał throws out the window (first floor) various of his equipment, such as computer, TV.
Finally his mothe came to me as psychologist asked me to talk with him . Rafał was prejudiced about my visit and let me into his apartament.
There was only a couch on which we sat. I saw the partiton wall partially dismand led and the boards torn off floor. We talked for a few hours. Rafał told everything that had happened to him recently, which I have no right to repeat here. In this conversation, Rafał clearly emphasized reflections on various ways of commiting suicide and I realized that he had already made a manic decision to kill himself, made an attempt to change Rafał’s thinking and I told him ; If you have already decided to commit suicide, it would be good if you did some good deed before. What could it be ? And we started to discuss different possibilities, after which Rafał chose agreement with his wife and have access to his son. I promissed to help in this matter and visited his wife.
However, Rafał’s wife categorically refused any contact with him. She was already in relationship with another man .But I was supposed to meet with her next day again and I didn’t say to Rafał anything,
In the meantime , Rafał’s parents drove to him a psychiatric hospital. There he was declared healthy and relased, He came home on foot 40 kilometers, then wrote a long suicide note and hanget himself.
Only then did the neighbors tell me that Rafał had a twin brother who hanged himself at the age 17 and his mother’s husband is not his father. This surprised me very much, also in a metaphysical sense. Because I saw several times Rafał in the evenings when he standing on our street with an identical-locking second man. Would it be ghost of his brother ?
At the time Rafał died and it was just after is funeral, at my house was a small renovation and workers inadvertently let to complete clogging of the drainage water pipes. Succesively called by me specialists can non fix this.The next day should come the last with a special device.
I stood in despair in the basement in my welles, looking at the water everywhere.
Suddently. something told me to say out loud : Ghost of Rafał help me !
And then I heard the rushing of water ! And I saw that water was flowing into the sewage flap !
I cried with emotion and happiness. I whispered : Ghost of Rafał, you have done a very good deed. Thank you with all my strenght.
I rembered also that when after death my father I was forced to do some very hard work in the basement and this work went me very easily. I felt then that my father was supporting me. Also I had impression that the ghost of my father, buried in the ground, has contact with me thanks some radiation trough ground ( from the grave a few kilometers away ? ).
