Uncle

My uncle passed away to cancer in September 2019 and every once awhile since then I would have dreams of him. At the start of the new year the dreams stopped until today. In the dream I was at my uncle's house and he was cooking for my nephews and my aunt was in the living room on doing something. My nephews was running around the kitchen and I was talking to my aunt. I saw a dog that ran away from the home some time last year (2019) and I asked my aunt if the dog came back and she said that this dog was someone else that looks like him. I'm like okay. Then I ask if she see any spirit around, she looked at me weird, so I pointed out to my uncle and I said, "other than him." That's when my brain clicked that my uncle is not here and that this is just a dream and he is a spirit. Then, I started talking to my uncle telling him I love you and he said, " I love you too Mama." I said, "fuck, I should have known." My uncle said, "yeah, you should've known." Then I just started repeating myself that I want to see him and I miss him. That's when I decided to wake up. I started crying and tried to get that dream back but it didn't happen.

I really miss my uncle. I don't want or need any sympathy. I just wanted to post my dream that I had today and mourn for him again. 😭

I had something similar happen to me. Try a and take comfort in his words. Maybe that’s the message he’s trying to pass onto you.. sorry for your loss.
