Dream: We were at my inlaws house. She passed away 9mths ago. She turned up to see us but it was only family members who could see her. Her being there did not bother any of us, and it did not feel strange that she had come, it was just lovely to see her. She took me to her bedroom and we packed up her clothes to give to charity.(All her things are as she left them) While doing this we chatted as we always did. She said we needed to do this as it was too hard for my father Inlaw to do. She also told me to be patient with my father Inlaw, that she knows he has crazy ideas sometimes but that he really was a good man.
