The book explains death. When she knew she was going, which was before I even knew she wouldn&#8217;t be around much longer, she wrote in it: &#8216;I&#8217;ve arrived in heaven and from here I&#8217;ll always watch over you as an angel.&#8217; She gave the psychic this book to give to my girls, which Natalie subsequently did. We&#8217;re not friends. And I have that book safely locked up.<br \/>\n&#8220;I believe all of us on Earth eventually go somewhere and that guardian angels do exist. Raised Catholic, I&#8217;ve started church again and taken Lola and Sammy to be baptized. I desperately have wanted a message from my mother, and I want to hold onto anything which will make that happen. I&#8217;ve told her to stay in contact with me even if she has to talk to me only through Natalie.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I think it&#8217;s wonderful when celebrities are open about spirtual lives and share their beliefs, and I&#8217;m glad Richards has found comfort knowing her mother is always looking after her and her girls.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.locatetv.com\/person\/denise-richards\/2297\" target=\"_top\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.locatetv.com\/person\/denise-richards\/2297\/584x85_belief.gif\" alt=\"Denise Richards at LocateTV.com\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Actress Denise Richards, ex-wife of Charlie Sheen and star of the reality TV show &#8220;It&#8217;s Complicated,&#8221; will soon guest host medium\/spiritualist John Edward&#8217;s show.
