coping with loss of a parent

Well, you think about her. She was a big part of your life and so of course her absence is felt by you, even now. Personally, I'd say, look at these dreams and thoughts as a gift. You relive your time with her, a little bit.

PS My grandmother has been gone for over 40 years yet I know my mother still has the same sort of intimate thoughts about her mother. It's okay.

In your dream, ASK her what she wants to tell you.

thanks, every time I think about that dream I feel glad.

yes, I will. thanks.
