For my blog today I thought I would share with everyone an amazing dream I had years ago. I have never forgotten it. One night I came home from work and noticed my mom was still up which was unsual for her. My dad was out of town for work. I went in her room and she looked sad. I asked her what was wrong. She told me that our dog Cassie(pictured at left) who was 13 years old at the time had begun acting really weird. She had just fallen on the living room floor and couldnt get up. My mom had to drag her into her bedroom on a towel. Then when she could finally get up she would stop at a wall and just stand there as if she didnt know what to do.
My mom said she was going to have to call the vet in the morning and most likely Cassie would have to be put to sleep. I was heartbroken and that night I couldnt sleep. I had to get up early for work and before I left I said goodbye to Cassie. I hugged her and petted her. I cried. That would be the last time I saw her.
At work it was a struggle not to break down crying but I somehow managed to keep it together. When I got home I went up to my room, sat on my bed, and cried and cried. My other dog Peaches snuggled next to me like she always does when she knows I am upset. I cried all night long. But something amazing happened.
I had a dream that I was sitting on my living room floor petting Peaches. Then My dog Cassie came in. She looked radiant and young again. Totally healthy. I petted her over and over and in my dream I knew it was her spirit that came to me. When I woke up all of my sadness was totally gone. I felt at peace and happy. The sun was shining brightly through my window and I smiled. I believe that my dog Cassie really came to me in my dream because she wanted me to know that she was okay and that she was in a better place. That dream has always stayed with me. I miss Cassie all the time, but at least I know she is watching over me. And that is all I need.
