I had a dream that I was a dog and I spent 5 years in my dream as that dog
Normally I don’t see in first person, but in this dream I actually was first person. Everything was vivid and I, the dog, lived in a nice suburban home with a family consisting of a father who was often away at his job and who came home late each night, a mother who stayed home, two kids a year apart who were nice but in the dream I was wary of them when they got too hyper, and an old grandmother who stayed at the house (on the mother’s side of the family) and was always really cranky and disliked dogs. There was the kitchen which had black and white tiled flooring and a counter through the middle of it. There was a living room with a large TV in it and a saturated green rug on the wooden floor. The kids shared a beige colored room, and the parents shared a smaller and cozier room that had a brown wood and red theme to it. The grandmother had a room that was basically green, yellow and white, and she collected tea sets and fancy dishes, which were all placed in these giant cabinets/bookshelves/on the wall. I spent roughly 5 years as their pet, and in those 5 years I learned all about them all and how they were like and every minuscule detail about the house and the immediate area surrounding it where I had been allowed to roam. In the dream I was fairly sure I was a large dog and even though I had this dream a couple years ago, I still remember it just as vividly as I had the dream today. Also in the dream towards the end, the grandmother died of cancer.

Nightmare about ex being sick
I had a weird dream that my ex had colon cancer. Mind you, we’re still in our 20’s, so GI cancer is rare for this age group. I had the nightmare a couple of months ago. Him and I don’t talk anymore at all. He hates me and would ignore my texts anyway. I don’t know how to interpret this dream, but if I had this dream to alert me that he is ill then I would definitely want to let him know about it. Do you think it means he’s actually sick or could it mean something else? Thank you
