We Are Never Alone. Anthony Quinata
that he is watching me at times but do not always feel him.
Over the course of these last three years, I have had readings with various mediums. They are all different in the way they receive information. Some are good at receiving certain information; others are good at relaying other messages. They all have had valuable messages that have helped me grow from where I was at that time.
I was sharing some of my experiences with my friend Cathy who had known Anthony. She told me about an amazing psychic medium she knew in Denver named Anthony Quinata (to avoid confusion, I will refer to him as Anthony Q). Instantly I knew I had to go see him. Not only did I like his first name, but I had a really strong feeling that he was going to help me greatly.
As my husband’s birthday was approaching and since I hadn’t heard him “talk to me” in quite some time, I thought it would be a good way to celebrate his special day by scheduling a reading with Anthony Quinata. Anthony Q did not know anything about me other than my name.
The session began, and right away my father-in-law, Domenico, showed up. His son’s death (my husband) had been very hard on him. He was eighty-six but didn’t look it. He was still working as an anesthesiologist and several times a week would go to the gym to spend several hours there working out and doing yoga, Pilates, or whatever class they offered. However he did have some health issues including COPD, had a pacemaker, and had had his prostate removed due to cancer. But these things didn’t slow him down. It was the emotional burden of having to bury his only son that, I believe, eventually led to his death just about a year after Anthony died. Since my own father had passed away thirteen years prior, I saw Domenico as my dad and was extremely happy to hear from him. Anthony Q said, “You were close to your father-in-law? Because he’s the one stepping forward . . .” And then he said, “Where’s the Marie . . .” I broke into tears. Marie is my mother-in-law. My heart aches for her as she not only buried her one-and-only loving son whom she adored, but a year later lost her own husband! Then he said to, “Please tell Marie, because he’s calling out to Marie, that you’ve heard from your father-in-law!!!”
Anthony Q kept getting accurate details about Domenico, describing his personality to a “T” and said several times throughout the session that he kept referring to himself as my father! That made me smile! Anthony Q also asked if Domenico had heart and lung issues. To both questions which I said, “Yes.” Then Anthony Q said, “COPD”! Right again!
Then Anthony Q said, “You lost a husband?” I broke out in tears again. “His son?” he asked. “Yes!” Apparently they had decided that Domenico should talk first to give me the message about Marie, and also because once my Anthony began to speak, he wouldn’t be able to get a word in! That is how Anthony was in life. He always had a lot to say! He talked about a birthday, and I confirmed that my husband’s birthday would be the following day. “Then the timing is perfect,” he said. Anthony Q told me that my Anthony was playing music for him (my Anthony loved music and played the guitar). Then he said that Anthony called himself a real romantic and that ours was his first marriage and the second for me. All correct! “He keeps wanting me to tell you how much he loves you”! Anthony Q said. Anthony Q tried to get his name and then laughed and said my Anthony told him “Anthony, like you! He said he likes me because we have the same name! He’s funny! He has a great sense of humor. He’s a real jokester. He liked to kid around because he’s kidding now! He’s having a lot of fun!” Clearly he was connected with my husband and his father and was hearing their messages very accurately.
Anthony Q went on to talk about many other things that were accurate. Occasionally stating, “Boy, he loves you! He just loves you so . . . so . . . much; he doesn’t want you to forget that! You were his first one and only.” He talked about the new car I recently got. The previous car I had while Anthony was still alive was a nice car. I bought it used, but it constantly had one problem after another. I was so nervous about this that when getting this new one, I asked Anthony to help me pick out one that would be reliable. In fact, while driving the new car home, I felt an energy lifting off of me and the new car. I then realized that he and maybe others had been working to make sure that the old car would not break down on me again. That energy was no longer needed!!!! What a relief! And what a blessing! Anthony Q said, “He is very happy that you have this new car and that you are taking care of yourself. He said that the other car was a clunker! He said he helped you pick it out because you asked him too! And it’s blue?” Yes, yes, and yes!!!!! He insisted that Anthony Q tell me that he’s watching over me all the time. “I’m with her all the time,” he said.
He talked about how he loved my food and that I am a good cook. Then he said that I made lasagna and cupcakes recently (I did! Those are not things I make very often anymore). He said they were good! He was able to taste them through me, I guess! I made gluten free cupcakes for a friend’s wedding, and after several tries, they turned out really well. He said that people really liked them. And they did! Then he said I was a bit of a health nut (I’m vegetarian who eats gluten free and organic foods). Then Domenico stepped in and thanked me for taking such good care of his son (I was his nurse, his caretaker, his everything. I did Reiki energy work on him, etc.) Then Anthony Q laughed since they were both talking to him at the same time (that happened a lot in life). My Anthony said I took great care of him but that I feel like I could’ve done more (this is true). And he said I should stop feeling guilty and beating myself up (also true). He said that I did everything I could. I married him knowing he was sick but that I didn’t care because I loved him so much (also true). Then he went on to describe my love of animals and how it would be dangerous for me to visit the Humane Society as I would want to bring them all home (very true)! “That’s what a beautiful woman my wife is!” It brought such joy to hear him still referring to me as his wife!
Then my husband, through Anthony Q, gave me advice on how to handle some issues in my life. He talked about how I’m still grieving and still haven’t gotten rid of many of his things. He mentioned his pillow (I sleep on his pillow). He mentioned his shoes (for fun, I wore his flip flops recently even though they are four sizes too big!). He was amused at that and said he loves that. Anthony Q then said, “Anthony told me that you also wear some of his socks!” I fessed up and mentioned, while laughing about it, that I sometimes wear his underwear!!!! He was a child at heart (me too) so he loved wearing superhero, South Park, Wolverine boxers. I kept some of these and recently started wearing them around the house as shorts/pajamas! We all laughed: Anthony Q, Domenico, Anthony, and I. We were all having a blast! My Anthony then explained how when I wear his clothes, sleep on his pillow, etc., it creates an instant connection with him. However, Anthony Q said that my Anthony is closer to me than his socks that I wear! That my Anthony was with me when I made the lasagna, when I made the cupcakes . . . he was with me all of the time!
I was amazed at Anthony Q’s accuracy, but not surprised (if that makes any sense). It felt like I was talking directly to my Anthony. And Anthony Q is such an easy going, down-to-earth person that I felt very at ease and comfortable bringing up things such as my wearing my husband’s underwear!
Then Anthony Q said that my Anthony was asking me to stop asking when we will be together again. “He wants me to tell you that it will be soon . . . , but not tomorrow. When it does happen, it will be like a blink of an eye, as though no time has passed since you last saw him.”
“Anthony is telling me that you’ve given up but that you still need to live. You’re still here because there’re lessons you have yet to learn. He wants you to live but not for him.”
Then Anthony Q asked me if I was thinking about writing a book. I had thought about it after Anthony died. I thought about writing about his life but then put it on the back burner. Then Anthony Q said, “He wants you to write the book. It’s one of the things you are here to do—a book about healing. You’re supposed to write something, he keeps insisting!”
Anthony Q continued, “He wants you to trust your abilities and believe in yourself. You don’t trust! He says: I believe in you! He was your rock. He Still Is!!!” My Anthony would always be there to encourage me. Anthony Q said he’s still doing it! “Please know he’s okay. When you receive inspirations, write them down because they’re coming from him! And then follow up on them.”
