Hi Jeff,
I am clairvoyant also. I read the section regarding your grandmother using her energy to heal. Shame that she didn't simply channel the energy from the universe instead of using her own up. She would have lived a lot longer.
I also channel very well.(contact other beings) I don't go into a trance. I don't need to. I was told by my spirit guide years ago, "It's ALL as we believe it to be" Simply, if your mother believed her energy is being used up..it was.

Much Qi,
Diana
