I've had a few dreams about my father who passed away two days after Christmas. In one dream I called out to him and he appeared. I was so happy and relieved to see him alive. Then I awoke and was sad when I realized it was only a dream.

My cousin has the gift of being able to see family members in her dreams when they die. On the nght my father died, she had a dream in which she saw my father in a beautiful forest. He looked happy and healthy. He told her, "I'm ok. I am good to go." He asked her to take care of me. He knew I would miss him terribly and that for the first time I am all alone in the world. I have relatives and friends, but no one close by.
