"A Warning"
51A Warning
One east night, as I lay sleeping in my bed, I dreamt that my brother would die in a car accident. He was just getting off from work at 2 in the morning and took the highway home. As soon as he exited the highway, the accident occured. In my dream, he was driving a white car and police were standing around him until the paramedics came. Once the paramedics were there, he was pronounced dead on the scene.
I woke up and called him to see if he was alright. He laughed and said, "I'm alright sis, go back to sleep." I rolled over with the feeling of relief and went fast back to sleep.
Exactly one year later, my mom came by at approximately 2 in the morning to tell me he was in an accident and died. She explained he was driving a white car and the police were crawling all over the scene until the paramedics came and pronounced him dead. He fell asleep behind the wheel from exhaustion and working many hours. He was exiting the same highway, same exit as in my dream.
I couldn't move. It took me a while to gather myself. Afterwards, I felt guilty that I did not prevent his death. Everything in my dream had become a reality, but, how was I to know for certain that this will happen?
Now, that it has been twenty years since his death, I still struggle with the fact that I did not prevent his death.
Has anyone had an experience (a warning) like this?
