That's a bit freaky JG. Nice to hear Plaw is still reading.

I had a similar experience a few years ago after my grandfather died. After a death, Catholic Filipinos have daily prayers for 40 days to pray for the soul of the recently deceased. The prayers are for the safe passage from purgatory into heaven. Right around the 40th day after my grandfather's death, he came to me in a dream saying that I had to let him go - that he can't go to heaven otherwise.

Needless to say, I woke up in a start. It freaked me out because (i) I've never dreamt about my grandfather before and (ii) the coincidence of time and words really was so surreal. I prayed for him that night and I'm sure my prayers were answered. To this day, I've never forgotten that dream.
