| Louwana Miller will never know that her daughter is alive |
Just a quick update today,
guys, as I don't have a huge amount to add to this story; I just want
to do what little I can to make sure awareness of this spreads.
Sylvia Browne,
self-described “spiritual teacher and psychic”, has a long
history of having her predictions turn out to be big, steaming crocks of bullshit.
And it seems we can tally up yet another to this very long list,
because in 2003 Browne told Louwana Miller, the mother of the woman
who has recently been found after her disappearance ten years ago,
that her daughter was in fact dead.
You can read the transcript
of the event in which she told Louwana Miller this lie here.
Head's up, though, it's some depressing shit.
News like Amanda Berry and
several other missing women being found is always great to hear,
which is why having stuff like this blemish it is always so
frustrating. What's worse is the fact that Louwana will never know
that her daughter is in fact alive and well even after all this time:
she passed away due to a heart-failure in 2006. Browne telling her
that her daughter was dead changed her, according to Art McCoy; “from that point on, Ms Miller was never the same”.
I cannot express how much it
angers me that Browne added further anguish to the final years of
this poor woman's life. That's why this story is so damn important,
and why I'm so glad that it's gaining so much media attention.
Charlatans and predators
like Sylvia Browne deserve to be held accountable for their failures
and wrong-doings. I hope that something good can come out of this
extremely sad story.
