Thinking back to a conversation before, my mum had a dream a number of years ago. She was in a fairly non descript environment with a lot of people, but one woman stood out in a sore thumb despite not really doing anything up to that point. She walked up to my mum in her dream and told her to ask her mother about her sister. She had brothers, but no sisters that she knew of. It was so vivid it woke her up straight away and kept her awake for a bit.

She finally managed to slip into conversation with her mum who was similarly taken aback by it, but before my mum was born she had a failed pregnancy of what would have been a baby girl. She'd never spoken about it to her children before.
