My dad died four months ago quite unexpectedly although he had been suffering from Multiple Sclerosis for 40 years. He was taken into hospital with a urine infection which he tended to be prone to as he was on a catheter. He was meant to get home the next day but they kept finding reasons to keep him in and eventually after 2 weeks he died of pneumonia. Since then i have had several dreams about him, he is alive and well and even walking in one of them, he had been wheelchair-bound for the last few years of his life. When i wake up the truth hits me. Does anyone know if there is any meaning behind these dreams. I miss him so much, he was an amazing man and a fantastic father.

RE: my dad
Hello Tracey,
I am sorry to hear about the loss of your beloved dad. He meant a lot to you, and his passing is still very raw.
I lost my dad in August 2001, his funeral was the morning of 11th September - the day the 'planes were flown into the WTC in New York. I have dreamed of my dad often since he died. He passed away very suddenly, so it was a shock. He comes to me in dreams and I love it when he does. He was the only member of my family with whom I had an affinity.
Dreaming of your dad means that he wants to tell you that he is well and happy, and that he'll be communicating with you in this way often from now on. The dreams are not a figment of your imagination, or that your mind is trying to reconcile things. Your dad is communicating with you, pure and simple.
Enjoy his new presence in your life...! Good luck to you both!
Love,
Patsy.

RE: my dad
thank you so much for your prompt reply, this is what i was hoping my dreams would mean. I have been trying so hard to keep a brave face for the sake of my kids who were very close to their grandad, but when iread your reply i broke down. A mixture of happiness and sadness. I have such great memories of my dad, he raised myself and my sister on his own while working and battling a terrible disease. Knowing that this is his way of letting me know that he is ok will maybe help me to start to deal with his death a little better.
Thank you again.

RE: my dad
Hello Tracey,
I am glad that my reply was of some comfort to you. I know exactly what you are going through, and I too, wondered why I had dreams of my dad so soon after his passing. I also felt his presence quite strongly for a while afterwards. This confirmed that the dreams were his way of getting back in touch.
Tracey, this knowledge can only help your grieving process. Knowing that your beloved dad is still around in spirit form can be very reassuring. With his help and guidance, you can look forward to a lifetime of sharing, love, happiness and companionship with him.
Love never dies.
Love and hugs,
Patsy.

RE: my dad
Hi Tracey,
I know what you mean exactly. My Dad passed over end of August. Since then I have dreamed of him and it has been wonderful as he has looked fit and healthy. The strange thing about the various dreams is that they have each dealt with a regret or feeling of sorrow I have had over something to do with him. While it still hurts that he has walked thru the door and I cant 'ring' him it has helped to ease my grief by knowing that I am lucky enough to be able to receive his loving thoughts in this way. I must also say that by reading your post and others with it it has also helped me to realise that he is doing just fine which is all I wanted for him because I didnt want him to suffer anymore so thank you.
