With that said, I DO believe there are men and women who are capable of having uncanny knowledge about others - I don't know where the ability comes from, but I do believe it is real. One thing I have consistently noted regarding what I consider to be people with a "real" ability is that unless you are a long-time client with a close relationship, those with "real" abilities will not offer predictions about a client's death.

Also keep in mind, death as it relates to intuitive or metaphysical predictions and such often speaks about something other than a physical death. In other words, your supposed "death" at 50 may actually refer to a completely life-altering change. "Death" is often metaphorical rather than literal. In my case, I did "die" 7 years ago - my career ended due to a severe injury. It was a career I'd known I would enter into my entire life - I never planned to grow up and be anything BUT who I was. When that changed, I had absolutely no plans for the rest of my life - I didn't know anything else. So, in a sense, my palmists were correct - I did "die" at 27 - and then was reborn as something else.
