Weird that it started happening again... I think you should talk about what it means to you, are there some feelings you haven't dealt with- guilt? Fear?
IMO trying to pretend stg is OK when your body is telling you otherwise is not helpful at all.
Thank you so much for letting me know you have experienced something similar. Yes, "the calling." It does, in fact, seem like she is afraid, hurt, confused and reaching out.

There are many feelings around my mother's illness and death- rage, guilt, sadness. Sometimes these feelings lead me to unhealthy places. I need to talk about them some more.

Btw, The touching began again May 18th around 3am. That was the occasion it seemed like someone was feeling my forehead for fever....the way a mom/grandmother would a child...but the touch was ice cold.

Weirdly just ten hours later one of my brothers phoned telling me our eldest brother has taken a turn for the worse....

I agree, T's advice in this case doesn't feel helpful or realistic. Thank you.
