I have recounted some of my dreams of my husband before. It has been over 5 years since he died, and I still dream of him sometimes. These are pretty ordinary dreams. I have long held the belief that when we dream of those we have lost, there are two kinds of dreams. One is the ordinary dream, similar to what we might have dreamed about before the loss, where the loved one is there, but it doesn't seem particularly significant. I still really enjoy those dreams because I get to "see" him. But the other kind is what I call a visitation dream, where your loved one is definitely communicating with you in a purposeful way. I had not had one of those dreams for a couple of years, when last October, I had a dream where my husband was standing a ways off, and I ran to his arms. We just held each other for a very long time. There were no words spoken, and no plot, just the long embrace. It was clear and vivid and made me feel like we had really been in touch. Three days later, I was diagnosed with cancer. I knew that the dream was my husband "visiting me" to bring his love and support for the upcoming troubles. He knew before I did.

I dream of my mom almost every night. I miss her so much.

Oh, GG! I am so sorry to hear of your troubles. I noticed that I hadn't seen you around. I don't think we are in many common threads but I did see you recently. That was lovely of your hubby to come to you.

So good to see you again.

Thank you, Tami. I have been through 7 months of treatment for endometrial cancer, including a hysterectomy. Right now I am crossing my fingers that I am in remission. Studies happening next week to see if I am. Thanks for thinking of me. GG

I so hope you will be okay, GG. I had cervical cancer 50 years ago and I am still kicking! Had the hysterectomy at 27 but it saved my life.
