My mother passed away a few months ago. I want so bad to have a dream about her, or feel her presence. We were very close and so much alike. I miss her so much. Please tell me what I can do to get a sign from her that she is with me. There are 4 of us adult children. We all shared in the caring of her, her last 6 months of life.
My father, the main caretaker, lives 2 miles from us. They had bought the condo as a summer home 5 years ago. The rest of the kids live far away. I am lucky to have my father so close but also share in his horrible grief and that can be consuming and so hard. They were married 56 years and it is a very painful life for him now. I want and need to hear her voice or feel her by me now. As she was dying, 10 days before she died, she said to me, "I don't mind being sick all of the time." I asked her why and she said, "Because I know you will never leave me." I self centeredly wish she was still here, even though she was sick. I wish I could still see her and feel her and be with her. I miss her so.
My oldest daughter is so much like me, as I was so much like my mom. I know we live through each other and it is uncanny how I even see my mom in me, or vice versa.
Thank you
After my mom passed, I didn't try to push to the other side. Upsetting my parents isn't my goal... But, once I almost fell asleep driving and felt a push on my shoulder and smelled my dad's Old Spice and him and jerked awake. It saved me. It's happened a few times in my life with both parents. There is some form of contact maybe? I think so, but very limited. But with those who love us most, I think that it is touchy for some reason. This part is a mystery to me.
