Inbetween worlds....being prepared?

Hi Ameliorate, I would take a little comfort from this, I feel that your mum is being gently prepared by these visits, perhaps rather than trying to separate the two they are helping her to merge them together in readiness, so her passing will be as easy as possible, I don't know how common it is with dementia patients to dream about the deceased, but it is very common to refer to often long dead people in their waking life.

I find this very hard to put into words.

I feel this she is getting ready to pass, She does not know which is waking and which is a dream because in spirit it does not exist... it is pure consciousness. She is seeing dead relatives, it is not a dream, she is actually in the spirit world but keeps coming back on fourth, She will fully let go once physically body gives up.

Yes Auras...thanks for your post.  I also feel they are real visits (perhaps on the astral plane) that she is having and
that she is being prepared. I try not to think about it too much since it is upsetting.  I would love that she
finds a new faith in the afterlife before she dies....at any rate she will soon find out that it is not the end but a
transition.

How is she now, Amy?   Was thinking of her today.....

Good,I'm pleased to hear that...about passing over.  To put your mind at rest about passing over....you will know when her time comes.  She may start about talking about passed relatives which she has started to do.  
Seeing them etc...She may even ask if you can see them?  

Mum actually said that her brother was coming to remove her and take her 'home'.
'From this nasty place' The nasty place was the 'home'.
That was mum's comment...

Another little remark he made while in hospital,I asked how he knew it was his brother across the ward.   The answer was....'he looks-like me'

When she wakes up she can't believe they are dead and is finding it hard to assimilate the waking world
with her dream world. 


A doctor has recently told me that she is unlikely to leave hospital - where she currently is, recovering
from pinning a broken hipbone.  She has a blocked heart valve and it could clog over completely at any
time.  She is 94.

I am wondering if she is being prepared for the after life or whether these dreams of interacting with "dead"
relatives holds no deep significance.  If not, why is she finding it hard to separate the dream
world from the waking world?  This is not a symptom of dementia that I know about.

I think that yes, she is being prepared for dying.  However, I'm sure some would disagree and say they are just dreams.  In a way, having worked with those suffering from dementia, I think the whole thing is a sort of gearing up for the dying process as many of the patients at the hospital I worked in saw or heard dead relatives. Of course the staff simply took these experiences as caused by neurological malfunction but I don't buy that explanation myself

My mother did!  She suffered from Dimension   Always kept saying a relative was coming to take her home....she hated the home,mind!   Not quite sure whether this relates to the case in hand but she did pass over several days later.
Spelling mistakes....still not awake yet...
