This is about a dream I had about my deceased mother. 

I was prepared for my mother's death, well, as prepared as you can be for something like that. We all knew it was inevitable. She saw an angel 3 days before she passed too so she knew it too. We, (my older brother, my younger brother and I) were told to tell her that it was okay for her to let go and that we will be alright. I did. 

Even though I knew it was coming, I still felt guilty about not being able to say anything to her the day before. She was on medication and slept most of the day. (She was terminally ill with cancer.) 

Anyway, a year and a few days after the death of my mother I had a dream about her and I was given the chance to say goodbye. It was set in a corner of like a 50's cafe. I remember sitting across from her in a booth and I believe that's all there was to this cafe. Just me and her in our booth. I remember telling her how much I missed her and I was so sorry. I remember I was crying so hard to her and she just sat and listened. 

After a few minutes?...(not sure how long the dream lasted)...I saw a bright light enter our booth area and she said it was time for her to go. I went over to her and hugged her and said goodbye. I knew her angel came to get her to take her back to heaven. She just came back so I could say goodbye. 

I woke up in tears but fell quietly back to sleep. I still miss her. I always will. But one day I'll be with her too. 

I am so thankful that God gave me the chance to say goodbye for now.
