A\N: This is my first Ghost Whisperer fanfic, so please be nice and review. In England, we are only halfway through series 2, so if some of the stuff mentioned in this fanfic has already happened, please don't have a go at me. I hope you enjoy and at the end will be a preview of chapter 2.

Grandview,

My name is Melinda Gordon. I'm married, own an antiques store and live in a small town. I may be just like you, except from the time I was a little girl, I knew I could see and speak to the dead. Earthbound spirits my grandmother called them. People who have not crossed over, because they have unfinished business with the living. To tell you my story, I have to tell you theirs.

"Thank you Delia." A woman said taking her purchase

"You're very welcome, come back soon." Delia said.

The door shut behind the customer.

"I didn't think she was going to buy anything." Delia said

"Me either, but you got the sale in the end." I said placing candles on a table

"I did," Delia said "So I am going to get us coffee and cakes. I think we deserve them."

"O.K." I said

"Be right back." She walked out

I walked over to the till and a dizzy spell hit me. I tried to grab the edge of the table, before I collapsed.

15 minutes later,

Delia walked in carrying the coffee and cakes.

"Sorry I took long, the line was...MELINDA!"

She rushed over to me. "Melinda, can you hear me?"

I opened my eyes. "Delia?" I asked confused

"It's o.k. Melinda, I'm going to call the paramedics."

"Jim, he's working."

"Hey mom." Ned said walking in

"Ned, go get Jim, he's at the station. Tell him Melinda has collapsed."

Ned rushed out.

"It's o.k. Melinda, it's going to be o.k."

Grandview Fire Station

Jim Clancy was talking to fellow paramedic Matt when Ned rushed over.

"Hey Ned, what's wrong?" Jim asked

"It's Melinda, she's collapsed. You have to come."

"I'll bring the ambulance." Shouted Matt at Jim's departing back.

Same as it never was,

"Melinda, open your eyes. Help's on its way."

"I don't feel well."

The door burst open and Jim and Ned came rushing in.

"Melinda, baby. It's Jim." He said kneeling next to me on the floor

"Jim?" I asked

"It's o.k. Mel. Just stay focused on me."

"Jim," Said Tim "She o.k.?"

"I'm fine." I said trying to sit up before collapsing again.

A\N: Please review and here is the preview of chapter 2.

"Jim?"

Jim looked up to find the doctor standing there

"Is Melinda o.k.?" Jim asked

"Jim, there is something you need to know."

"What?" Asked Jim worried that Melinda was seriously ill.

"Melinda is…."

A\N: So what is wrong with Melinda? To find out, you have to review.
