    That's good that you get to go to a Grief Class. I've had dreams about my dad and my sister. Most of the time they were comforting.

    Josh, you're in the year of firsts and there will be many triggers, but a big part of processing your grief is wanting and wishing you could mitigate another's pain. You are doing well, being a great father and celebrating her life every day. Every morning as I start each day I say Sarah's line, be kind, and make good choices! What a gift!

    I have had many visitations from a person that I love! These visitation only last a few seconds each time but they are extremely real. They are not really dreams they are actual visitations. They are always bittersweet but I am so glad that he still visits me after almost 8 years. I know this does not fit into your belief system but perhaps over time you will be convinced. It took time for me to believe. It has nothing to do with the christian faith. My belief system has evolved over time and I believe in incarnations (reincarnation) but know these visitations are very real! I can even feel the person and his essence. Sending you love and hugs❤

    It may sound corny or off the wall, but I believe our lost loved ones come to us when we need them. Sometimes that’s in our dreams. The reality is tough once you wake from that dream, but I take comfort in knowing he was with me if only for a moment.

    • @trudyramgren8817
      @trudyramgren8817 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It isn't corny at all!! Our loved ones do come I'm our dreams. I had that experience after my sister passed. They say if your dream is really vivid, that they are communicating with you. Perhaps Josh, it was just a bad dream. You will know for sure if Sarah is communicating. I won't go into detail about my sister but I was very much comforted after this experience. Without sounding crazy, I've had several paranormal experiences. You may have missed signs from Sarah. You need to have an open mind and keep in touch with your spirituality. Trust me, she's around you. Grieving also produces not so pleasant dreams of loved ones. Many things lie in our subconscious if this makes sense to you. Josh, you are still processing your grief. It will come into many forms. Hugs and ❤

    My parents have passed. I imagine them with the ones they loved and it brings me comfort. I don’t have a lot of dreams with them in it but occasionally I do. Sometimes it makes me sad other times happy.

    When I lost my Brother to liver cancer. I was scared to go to sleep in case I saw him in my sleep. He was skin and bone before he died. That image haunted me for years. When I dream now I see him as he was before he got sick. Waking up I think I’ve dreamt he died. But then I realise he’s gone. The dreams are bittersweet. Love to see him but then realise he’s gone all over again. You’re doing well, am so glad the children are okay. Christmas is always hard for me since I lost my brother. Since then I’ve lost 2 more family members to cancer. F##K Cancer. Sending love and light to you all as always. 💙💙🩷🩷

    Thank you for continuing to share your journey…you are teaching so many of us the definition of love.
    I simple suggestion on the gift wrapping…ask your older son if he would like to assist…you might get a nice surprise to make a new family connection.

    • @POGGrief
      @POGGrief  ปีที่แล้ว

      He did offer, and I’m going to ask home to help next year. I agree with you. He’s helping me with lots, so I’m not neglecting that for him. There’s just something about this that I’m working through. Also he still is strong with Santa so don’t wanna slip up lol.

    Josh, it is not corny. You had a visit from Sarah. I hope that you use this to renew your faith that Sarah is with you. Just speak to her, she hears everything you say, and she sees you! In essence Sarah gave you something to smile about for the holidays. She is just in her forever home now! ❤❤❤

    When my mum passed I was resting on my bed in the afternoon, I fell asleep, I don’t know how long I had been asleep but I was wakened by my mum slipping her had out of mine, I didn’t want her to leave me, but I know in my heart she couldn’t stay, I just felt sad but also happy that she had come for one last visit.

    A year or so after my father died I heard him say “hi Val”. It was very clear and I was wide awake. I found it very comforting. I dream of my family members who have passed on just like I dream of my living family. It doesn’t affect me like the hearing my dad’s voice.

    Our son, Paul, 46, died suddenly from the CV19 VAX, on October 30th of this year. We are beyond grief stricken. So yes, I do know how you feel, and I doubt we'll ever get over it.

    • @POGGrief
      @POGGrief  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sending love. I never think of getting over it, or moving on…. Many of us use the term Move Forward, and maybe you do as well. Meanings of these phrases are much different now, so I know for me finding the words that work for me, and my mind are important. Once I find some words that work I hang on to them, so tight. 🫂🫂🫂

    Yes the dreams are difficult to deal with but I honestly look forward to seeing my loved ones, it comforts me and lets me know they are still near looking after me.

    My brother visited me after his death. He was battered and bruised from the plane crash, laying on the altar at the little church in Northern MN. In my dream, I had run through our farm fields and places to try and find him. He was laying there looking like he did at the funeral home where we visited the crash site and the business who took care of his body. Once I found him he whispered that I had to let him go. I was struggling. He has never visited since and that dream helped me say goodbye.

    ((((Josh)))) That's a virtual hug!! My daughter and I were just talking today about the last few years being really rough on our family. It seems that way with a lot of people we know too.
    Please don't be sad. I know this is a hard time as my husband has cancer and we have no idea how long he will be with us...THERE! I said it! I couldn't bring myself to voice it out loud.
    Sometimes I feel so guilty because you didn't have your beautiful Sarah very long and We've been together 51 years...still ...I am so scared.!! God Bless you, Josh. you help me a lot!

    • @POGGrief
      @POGGrief  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ❤️‍🩹🫂❤️‍🩹 That’s such a hard thing to say. We said those words around 6 years ago, and again and again as thing progressively got worse. It doesn’t mean you can’t still hope for a better outcome, or fight for one. Saying it, allowing for a sense of acceptance helped me. Obviously still crushed me, but I’m confident my acceptance helped me to be prepared. 🫂❤️‍🩹🫂❤️‍🩹🫂❤️‍🩹🫂

    When each of my parents passed at different times, I got a vivid dream of each of them. I felt such peace knowing that they were safe in a peaceful place. Some say they come to visit us in our dreams. To let us know they are okay. Always remember as you move forward things will get easier, but don’t expect to never feel moments of grief at different times. My mom has been gone now over 14 years and though it is easier, you never stop missing them and certain events or holidays are harder than others.

It’s a blessing to here their voice , you haven’t forgotten her voice! She is still around just not physically! It’s hard but keep moving forward. You will make it, it’s time, the love ❤️ never dies ,GOD BLESS

    My husband of 41yrs died 14 months ago. The dreams rip open my heart every time. I both hope for them and dread them. I cry, then I remember to breathe. And my day goes on. It does suck. Heads up, I was told Year Two is harder and I’m finding that to be true in some respects. My “must get done” list is done and the distractions from grief aren’t there. Are there days of joy and laughter and wonder. Of course there are. You’re doing fine.

    Hi Josh,
    My husband passed on 8/29/22. My daughter passed on 8/18/23 (her birthday). On the evening of her celebration of life I had a dream….I was going up an escalator when I felt the presence of someone behind me. I turned around and looked into my husbands eyes. I noticed he was a holding the hand of a small girl. When I woke up I was sad at first then I was struck with the thought that he had visited me with our daughter as if to say I have her now and we are okay. ❤

    I would say I dream about my husband that passed 6 months ago about once every week or two. A couple of them have even been intimate. I like all of them. It feels I have spent some time with him. Just the other morning I heard him shout my name. Woke me up. I wondered if I stopped breathing in my sleep or something.

    This is kind of off topic but I had a dream about my dog who died . She died of old age 12 but I had guilt about thinking maybe the alge in the pond killed her. I dreamt last night I was running holding her we ran by a sprinkler and she was biting the water from the sprinkler as we ran by it. I think our
    Minds really have a memory. It’s good to talk about it , it’s not a waste of time but I do understand the need to move forward and not be stuck.

  • @tonia278

    I understand it being very hard at this point. Eventually you will get a different feeling from the dreams. You will find comfort in knowing that Sarah is walking with you everyday and coming to you in your dreams. While it will never take the pain away, you will find comfort in her voice ❤ Your doing an amazing job

    I had one very vivid dream after my grandmother passed away when I was 10. She came to me in my dream and I got to hug her one last time while she was “alive, warm, happy, and not in any pain” in my dream. It was a beautiful moment but soo hard to wake up and want to get back there with her again! She’s never come to me again….it’s been 30 years and I believe that was her way to give me some sense of closure. 🛌

    Some ppl welcome these dreams and some don't. In 2 years I have had 2 "visitations" and 2 dreams. That's been it, which is just fine with me. I come from the school of thought that our loved ones are supposed to be enjoying life in heaven and don't need to be checking in on us. Everyone's beliefs/desires/wishes are different. Thank you for always being authentic. It's OK to post a video admitting that it was just a very bad day. No sugarcoating needed. All perfectly normal, for whatever it's worth. You've helped me on my grief journey...thank you!!

    I was 43 when my mom died. I’ve had a bunch of dreams of my mother calling my name and telling me it’s time to get up.
    Luckily most of my dreams of my mother and me doing normal stuff. Ive only had 2-3 dreams where I remember her having cancer, but they weren’t where she was sick enough yet to where we still were getting out to do things.
    I hope your dreams get better and don’t cause angst when you wake up and reality hits. Be grateful when you hear her voice. Blessings! 🙏🏻💕

    She’s with you - I saw happy elation at first- then grief and anger flares again. Ya know I have dreams and mention in the dream that the person is dead - they know. But good feeling in dream. Wake up varies - sometimes elation -a few times wishing more time - but I laugh in memories which helps me. Someday your eyes will shine peace & happiness. Each day anew,❤

    When I was younger I was quite a hopeful person. Hoping for a pain free world but I’ve realised now I’m older that this life we have is hard, short & at some point painful. Depending on where you were born the levels of hard/painful can be extreme. Perversely this doesn’t make me feel despondent, the opposite in fact. I strive to make happy moments wherever possible & feel grateful for anytime with my family.
    Life isn’t a wonderful place at all but we have to make it wonderful wherever we can.
    Although bittersweet I think it’s good you had such a nice wake up this morning. 🫂💙

    I love my dreams when my husband’s in them. He had pride in his shoes. Polished and new. His shoes were all worn and ugly in this dream Have no idea. I embrace my dreams of him or any family member in my dreams. Love lasts forever in different ways. Merry Christmas to you and your family🙏💕👍🎄🎄

    Hi Josh, dreams like that are hard. They happen to me from time to time. I will have a very poignant dream of a lost loved one or friend, or sometimes like you I will hear their voice. Afterwards I feel so "discombobulated". That is the first word that comes to my mind. Its like nothing feels normal for a few hours. Other times the dream rings my heart with pain . But as the day goes on their effects begin to melt away and once again take on a dream like quality and don't seem so real. I personally don't believe it is my loved one trying to speak to me. But over time I have tried to be positive and find comfort in the thought that that somewhere deep in my subconscious their memory is still there vibrant and intact even after decades. That thought makes me happy although the dreams themselves make me melancholy for a bit. So know you are not alone. You might think of it as if your subconscious brain is trying to find ways to process the grief. I hope you have a lovely evening tonight and a good night's rest.

    I dream of my parents and sister who’ve passed; comforting to “see” them, but then so sad to wake up to the reality which I think is what you’re expressing, Josh. I just try to not think about the dreams because it’s hurtful, especially because they are usually unwell in them. I’ve had a very horrible last decade, so I never think anymore of the calendar, whether a year was good or bad and what next year might bring. It will be what it will be.

    My sister passed from cancer 5 months ago. I have dreamed of her once since. She was smiling and told me not to worry, that she's happy. I was glad to see her and that she talked to me in my dream. It gave me comfort but I will forever miss her. She was my best friend and I am still getting used to not being able to talk to her or text with her daily. I think you're handling things amazingly. Grief comes in waves and it's a process. It will just take time. Be gentle with yourself. Being the ones left behind is hard.

    I heard that our lovedones meet us in our dreams and some are really them vpconnevting to us when they are that vivid as you recall a part of it ,
    When I had dreams , it does hurt I'm trying to hold both the sadness of missing them yet grateful too for having that moment, I just grieve through it know each day will bring something different, I will feel better in a day or so. They are still near us in spirit, I try hold to that to get through my grief this yr, my hearts not in xmas either, your not alone in that experience.i could use a grief group , what Facebook grief group is it you spoke of prior ? Praying for your heart and your children hearts, you are doing amazing for all your going through as a single greiving dad, I can't fathom the pain of loosing a spouse,. Blessings to you this season, your in.

    I never had a chance to say goodbye to my brother. I was extremely depressed and was crying a lot. One night i dreamt he came to my front door. I answered it and he gave me the warmest hug ever. It was so REAL. I did much better after this.

    When my dad died I wanted to see him in my dreams . I just wanted to see him . Dreams can feel do real . I not one to remember my dreams . It Took 2 years . The excitement when I woke up . Hilarious what he was saying to me . I don’t believe he was really visiting me . I had 2 years to deal with grief. Seeing him was special dream .

    You are processing your grief. Grief lives deep inside of us and it takes time to digest all of the layers. Allow yourself to experience each and every emotion. You will be OK. You are doing everything right.
