The Healing Pain Journey Katelin Bertschy

Survivor's guilt occurs in people who have experienced a traumatic event. This is also feeling guilt as the author was 21 years old. In 1964, her first love was killed in a car crash while coming to see her when he originally planned to celebrate his own 21st birthday with friends onboard the USS Mahan stationed in Long Beach, California.

For the following five decades, her survivor's guilt chose the men in her life, three men perceived to be in need of saving.

But then everything changed in 2013 when she wrote a short story about her lost love. By that time she had been a paranormal investigator for seven years, and one with a reputation as a 'debunker' for their team. Then her cell phone rang two different times while it was turned off, convincing her that maybe, just maybe, their clients were not the only ones with unseen loved ones around them.
