How understanding of you

It means so much to me if i dream of my mum, dad and sister i lost recently to breast cancer. My dad knew he was dying and told me that he would 'come to me in my dreams to check on me'. It's weird.. I have quite detailed dreams with my mum and sister..like a story but with my dad, he never speaks, he is just standing there looking. I miss them so much especially at Christmas but if i dream of them, it's like i get to see them one more time.
