Why are you telling this to strangers on the internet?
Talk about this with people who knew your parents and would relish this experience you had and reminisce with you about them.
Honestly, from the very beginning I've thought that she's but a mere troll. Only talks about her dead parents and "evil" grandparents. -
Re: A lovely dream about mum and dad!
People come here to share emotions from wonderfully happy right through to the other end of the spectrum. If posters such as the last two clowns cannot identify with a sad or desparate thread then they should move on to the next one. There are literally thousands to chose from. Chucking insults around while hiding their own identity seems a bit childish and cowardly to me.

Re: A lovely dream about mum and dad!
The OP is clearly very distressed. And who of us wouldn't be in the same situation? If readers don't feel able to offer support or help or they find the topics of death or the afterlife an incomfortable one then nobody is forcing them to post. But if they do post then a smidgen of compassion or a soupcon of empathy might be more appropriate.

Re: A lovely dream about mum and dad!
It is very theraputic for me to be able to "vent" on a site like this without having to share my unhappiness with long-suffering aunts and uncles. Those of you who have have experience of parents or siblings dying will know exactly what I mean.
I'm sorry if my posts upset a tiny minority so much that they feel anonomous insults represent their considered response to my hurt

Re: A lovely dream about mum and dad!
Interesting
This reminds me of a very 'powerful dream' I had recently. In this dream an ex gf (who I was with for a long time) became paralysed and was left in a care home on her own, which is silly because she has tonnes of friends and family. Throughout the dream I felt intense regret/empathy for her and tried to help, but she was sort of soldiering on alone. So anyway, I woke up in tears! But what is most strange, is that it has completely cured me of any bitterness or resentment which, even though it was a good break up, I know I still held. I have come to see that relationship as a great life experience and feel like *just* great friends with the ex, it's baazar!
This had me thinking about Freud, where repressed emotions are dealt with subconsicousl in our sleep via dreams. Pretty fascinating, especially since I thought Freud was 80% bull****! The Op's dream seems really similar, I hope it was as moving as mine. -
Re: A lovely dream about mum and dad!I had almost the same dream again last night. It lasted a bit longer and so I was able to tell mum and dad that I'm moving back into the family home with three friends from university. They were pleased about that. I could see so many other teenagers around me talking with their loved ones but it wasn't a sad place I was in. Just a safe, warm place where mum and dad will wait for me to join them. Just not yet.(Original post by Orphan)
I had a lovely dream involving mum and dad last night. It was such a calm and peaceful dream. Mum and dad were sat either side of me in an enormous park with lots of benches. On each bench there were three people and I somehow knew that this was the place where all the teenagers who had been left behind came to see their dead parents.
Down the centre of the park was a path with a few parents (singles and pairs) walking one way and children walking the other. Mum and dad promised me that we could meet here again and again until I was ready to let go.
I started telling them about all the problems with nan and granddad but then suddenly I was walking down the path and I knew I was waking up. I looked behind me and I could see mum and dad a long way away but I just knew it was them.

Re: A lovely dream about mum and dad!
Really, really need to vent here!
Yesterday I moved back into my family house. The tenants had left the house spotless and the garden was quite tidy so I didn't have that many jobs to do BUT my mum and dad's room had not been part of the deal because I was using it for storage. The bedroom door was locked and it was agreed that nobody should go in the room - not the tenants, not the estate agent, nobody. Well somebody HAS been in. Things have been moved, folders of private documents have been opened and I think read and although I don't think anything is missing I'M NOT HAPPY.
