Chelsey, using the tenth definition of "medium" I would say they exist, but if you choose either the first or the second, I would say it is possible, but not necessarily the actual case. However, if you attempt to use the third, I would have to say that is does not fit, as mediums are in opposition to Christ, and thus will not have good fortune.

I think the third was talking about physics, not spirituality, actually...

Chelsey, I was refering to the third definition of the word "happy", not "medium". That definition does seem to relate to physics, but I forgot to clarify my definitions. Sorry.
