Dream

Lastnight, I had a dream about my brother Brian. It was so strange, and has left me feeling empty this morning. My brother Brian passed away 7 yrs ago, so having such a vivid dream about him was very strange. The dream went something like this: I was sitting in a bar and in came my brother in a wheel chair. I remember being so excited to see him, I had told him "it had been so many years, and I was wondering where he was?" He could speak to me, but it was very hard for me to hear him, I had to put my ear right next to his mouth to understand what he was saying. He said that he had been in an accident and was suffering from brain damage. He wasn't able to walk, but could move around freely in his wheelchair. I told him "mom and dad were worried about him, since they hadn't heard from him so long as I hadn't either." He assured me he was okay, just living with some guy, I don't recall???? Then I woke up and was feeling very empty and sad. The dream was somewhat true, Brian died of a traumatic brain injury do to his motorcycle wreak and I haven't seen him in over 7 yrs, but when you dream so vividly and can actually remember their face, and what they sounded like is so nostalgic and I really miss that guy. I just recently visited his grave and chatted with him for a bit, so maybe this is what sparked this dream, but it was just too real, and left me feeling so empty, and sad for my family that it has been 7 yrs since we have seen his bright shining smile.
