The dreams that don't seem realistic may instead, be symbolic. You may have to really dissect them to come up with the symbolism, but there's probably a message in there somewhere....
I lost my mom in July and I dream about her almost every night. In my dreams nothing unusual or dramatic happens, she is just in the dream. Sometimes talking to me or just standing around. I feel comforted in some ways by these dreams because it's like I see her again, but then I am sometimes sad when I wake up because I know she is gone forever.
Is is common to dream of a mom or dad who has passed away? Has this happened to anyone else?
it has been over 3 years since mom was taken from my siblings and I, I dont know about them, but I dream about mom each and every day. I dream about dad about once a month.

I have dreams everynight about everything under the sun.
I am not one who believes they have meaning nor would I spend any time dissecting them
It has been 10 months since my dad passed on. I still think of him all the time. Last night, I had a realistic dream of him. I really thought he was in my room on the computer.
I always dream of my Granny. In a few days, it will make 1 year since she has passed. It's funny since one of my best dreams of her is on the computer (like always) and having a cigarette.. I was sitting on the couch and she was at her desk.. It was like any other day that we would be talking. She told me craziest joke and I woke up.. I woke up laughing and so happy that we had that talk.. Best dream so far!!!

That sounds like a great dream, Shay! I'm happy for you that you had it.
My Mom passed last August and while I have dreamed a few times about her, last night was a shock. All I can say is "She was right there." It was so real. It made me cry. I woke up with my hands over my face and shaking. I have never had such a real dream before. I know she was telling me she is ok. I asked her, while alive, to give me a sign when she passed. This is just the first of many, I think.
My dad would be 104 this year. My mom would be 96. I wish that I did dream of these two wonderful people but alas, if I do dream, I haven't remembered a dream in years.
That's wonderful, Barb. Thank you for sharing. I wish I had dreams like that.
