“I’ve had a lot, actually. Let’s go with the one that holds the most meaning to me.
In 2008, my cousin – a United States Marine – died in a horrific car accident off-base. He was only 25 years old. I dreamed of him often in the ensuing years, and it always felt like a “visit” from him, usually corresponding to big events in my life.
Fast forward to 2014. It’s a Friday night. I haven’t dreamed of Cory in a long time. I was brushing my teeth by the light of my phone because my husband was asleep and had to work that night. I saw a face in the mirror over my shoulder, and it looked A LOT like Cory. That night, I dreamed of him, and it felt like a warning that something was coming, and a reassurance that he was there for me. When I woke up, my husband had sent me a picture of Cory’s Veteran’s Memorial glass block – I had not mentioned to my husband about seeing Cory’s face. We hadn’t talked about him at all recently. But something compelled him to visit the memorial while he was patrolling that night and send me that picture.
Two days later, my life imploded when I lost a parent to suicide.
I clung to Cory’s messages in the days that followed. I firmly believe he was preparing me and he was assuring me I wouldn’t be alone during the most traumatic period of my life.” – Heather Marie Adkins
