In my late father’s first dream visit I told him I loved and
missed him. He said, “I love you too, but I don’t miss you. I don’t know why.”
I asked him what it was like to die. He answered at length, but when I recalled
the dream his answer was garbled, totally unintelligible. I wasn’t supposed to
know.

How many visits have you had?
