Dream?

Today I awoke to someone calling "mom" I called back,"I'm right here" but no one answered. It was 5 am none of my children were awake yet and still I knew I had heard it so clearly. I cannot breath now. My heart aches, my soul hungers to hear Loughlin's voice. Was it a dream? I am beginning, it seems, back at the first of this grieving process again and I don't want to do it again. I am so tired of longing for a son whom I will never see on this earth again.

Once about 4 years ago, I was running a half marathon and all of the sudden in the middle of running, I got chills, even had goosebumps and just felt April in such an undeniable way. Why at that particular moment I don't know but I have no doubt I felt some essence of her. So, maybe that "mom" isn't just a dream.
