I was sleeping about 5:45 AM and I was dreaming that I got up from bed and walked toward the door of my bedroom and as I looked to my left I saw my Mom sitting and smiling, facing my bed looking beautiful and much younger in her early 30s. She had past away 9-21-14 at 79 while suffering during a long decline from cancer surgery and multiple health ailments. She did not look at me directly so not to startle me. She had a cute outfit on with facial makeup and seemed very happy. I then woke up and was really amazed and then a little scared because it seemed so real. I truly believe she was saying hello to me from the other side, because this had nothing to do with the dream I was having.
