My Grandad (who is like a second dad to me) got unwell a short time ago. He has always, right up until these weeks ago, been extremely fit and active. When he'd go for his yearly health check the doctor would always commment on the size of his muscles. Being a farmer he could throw bales of hay around like a young man. Anyway, the night before last (tuesday)I had a very vivid dream where my Gran, who passed away 9 years ago, was saying to me "Don't cry now, I've been waiting for Grandad for a long time. We will both see you again later" Then she smiled. Yesterday morning my Dad told me that the same night I had my dream, my grandad (who had been staying at my dad's while he was poorly) had been calling my Gran's name and talking to her as if she was there. Anyway, the day after my dream, yesterday, my Grandad passed away. Does anybody really think she was giving me this message for real. Was it a coinsidence that he should pass away the very next day? I haven't dreamt about my gran for quite a while, not since he's been ill either but it was so clear and vivid and she was smiling and I heard her voice properly. My grandad has missed her dearly since she passed and during his illness said he had no fear if he didn't get better as he'd be with her again. Another coicidence - My gran always said her lucky number was 7. Always, for as long as I can remember. Except she passed away on the 7th of the 7th. My Grandad passed away on the 17th, exactly 7 weeks (to the very day) that he got taken to A&E. Sorry for rambling, I don't know what i'm doing. I miss him so much already. Thank you for reading. x
I guess it's a load of crap then.

Hi, Just saw your thread on new posts. I truly believe that our loved ones come to us in dreams, and that your Grandmother did come to warn you that your Grandad was about to pass over. I hope her visit will be a comfort to you in your loss. I'm so sorry, I've lost both my parents, and I know how hard it is for you but it does get easier with time. You're so lucky to have had this experience....I envy you.
I have written on here before about a dream I had once and I will never forget it. My nan and grandad passed away when I was 9 and I sitll miss them today. A few years later I dreamt that I was a little girl again and I was in their house. My Aunty was there as were a few other family members and she said to me " Nat we have someone here who wants to see you". Anyway I went into the living room and my nan was sat there and my grandad came out of the kitchen (he was cooking) and we hugged eachother and started talking and it was a bit like the family going over for sunday lunch. Anyway after a while my nan said "Its time we had to go" and I started crying and they hugged me and reassured me that things were ok and they wont be gone gone. Then they walked out of the front door and I woke up in floods of tears. I felt like I had kind of said my goodbyes to them in that dream as I didnt get to when they died. Another one was more recent where I was in my mums kitchen and she was holding a party and my Auntie was there and I was so confused and she said hello to me and hugged me and we were talking about life and stuff and she suddenly went "you do know that I realise i'm not alive anymore" and I was lost for words and she smiled and laughed and then I smiled then I woke up literally sobbing my heart out :confused: .
Hi Foxy, this was definately your Grandma talking you. Thats so weird but it must be very comforting hun to know they are both happy and together now. My nan passed away 3 years ago and i still have dreams about her and i find it really comforting to know that shes still with me. Hope your ok xxx

Thank you both so much for your replies. Sorry for being flippant with my own response this morning. I just feel so horrid. When I lost my gran 9 years ago I never imagined that I would feel worse pain than that but having spent time with my grandad pretty much every day as a child and every day for the last few years, I am completely lost. I have an ache that just hurts. He was so much more than a grandad to me and I really cannot believe he's gone. Usually I always said 'I love you grandad' first but the day before he passed he reached out to me for a huge cuddle and told me he loved me. I'm clinging to that moment with all my might. It does give me great comfort to know that you think she really was talking to me and that they are together now. He missed her so much too since she passed away and I know the grief never eased for him. That's the only comfort I have, that they're together and that he's no longer in pain. He was asleep all day on Wednesday, the whole time when I was there, because the nurses had put a drip in so his pain relief was constant. He was relaxed, calm and just looked asleep but the nurse said he could hear me so I talked to him while I held his hand. Then after a few hours, his breathing slowed down and then gently stopped. My dad, sister, brother and I were there by his side. What was strange was after he'd gone, his hair had turned from grey to dark and all his lines faded away. He looked handsome, just handsome. Oh god I'm broken. x
aww honey that really was a lovely post. big hugs to you xxx and dont be sorry about this morning, its only natural to feel that way, you needed someone to talk to. i know how you feel, i was there when my nan passed away too and it really did break me. I like you, have memmories holding my nans hand in the hospital, being by her side and it really is heart breaking to see them like that. Took me years to get over it, and as you know, you never fully get over it but time does heal, it does get better. I know its very cliche but he really is in a better place now, he is back with the love of his life and he is happy. Your grandma especially wanted you to know that everythng is & will be ok. Expect another visit soon. Its very painful at first as the memmoies are still raw & tough to deal with, but now when my nan visits me in my dreams which isn't too often i would like to see her more, i know that shes still by myside and is watching over me like i asked her to when she passed away. I'm welling up now too!. I usually end up smiling for days on end with the thought of the dream. Its hard at first but you do get used it. Big love Foxy lady. If you ever need someone to talk to i / we are here xxx
It's always upsetting when someone you love dies. I truly believe that dreams give us messages from the other side. Just believe in God and his angels. Because your grandfather is with the angels.
This was definately your grandparents contacting you. I have experienced this many times before. I have relatives visit me in my dreams, I have now started having dreams on behalf of my boyfriends relatives to pass on messages to my boyfriends family. They are starting to think they are involved with some kind of freak I think when I start to come out with stuff that only they could know. :cmdunno:
RedDress, Thank you so much for your kind words. I really feel like I have a huge gaping whole in my heart. I can't believe he's actually gone. I went to see him one last time at the weekend. Like I said before, when he passed away my family and I were with him and he looked so peaceful and lovely (as weird as that sounds) which gave me a sort of feeling of comfort despite all the heartache. But I went to say goodbye at the Chapel Of Rest at the weekend and it really disturbed me. Don't get me wrong, he looked so dapper in his suit and I'm obviously so pleased that he's no longer in pain or getting anxious about things, but he just wasn't there. Does anyone know what I mean? He looked nothing like he did on wednesday, which is what shocked me to the core. My sister said he did to her but to me he really appeared to be gone. His soul or everything that made him had left his body. Does this make sense? (sorry for rambling....i'm writing as it is in my head.) NamedCandyGirl, Thank you for your kind words. PoppyLady, Thank you .. and WOW that's amazing!! I wonder why they come to you. Does it bother you at all? Thanks again for reading xx
