THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST DREADED DREAMS I HAVE EVER HAD; IT LEFT ME FEELING HEAVY LADEN AND SICK THIS MORNING.
APPARENTLY I WAS WITH A FAMILY AND WE HAD BEEN TRAVELLING. WE WERE APPARENTLY STAYING AT A HOTEL, HOWEVER IT DID NOT LOOK OR FEEL LIKE A HOTEL; VERY SIMILAR TO ANOTHER DREAM WHERE I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AT AN OLD EMPLOYER'S HOUSE, BUT IT TOO FELT LIKE AN OLD HOTEL BUT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE ONE.
THE WOMAN I WAS WITH HAD SEVERAL SMALL CHILDREN; ONE WAS AN INFANT. NO MALE WAS WITH US.
SEVERAL DAYS INTO THE STAY, I PUT THE BABY DOWN IN THE BASSINET FOR A NAP. A FEW DAYS WENT BY WHEN I REALIZED I HAD NOT SEEN THE BABY FOR A WHILE. I QUESTIONED THE MOTHER, BUT SHE WAS OBLIVIOUS AND SEEMED TOTALLY UNCONCERNED. I WAS ILL. I REMEMBER LOOKING FOR THE CHILD, BUT ESPECIALLY ON THE SIDE OF THE BED NEAREST THE WALL.
THE FACT THAT THE MOTHER DID NOT NOTICE SHE HAD NOT SEEN HER CHILD FOR DAYS WAS BAD ENOUGH, BUT ME, AS RESPONSIBLE AS I AM, NOT MISSING THE CHILD WAS TOTALLY INCONCEIVABLE.
AS A MOTHER, AND A VERY RESPONSIBLE ONE AT THAT, I CANNOT BEGIN TO TELL YOU THE SENSE OF LOSS I FELT, THE SHAME I FELT FOR NOT BEING AWARE (AND IT WASN'T EVEN MY CHILD) AND MY INABILITY TO UNDERSTAND HOW ANY MOTHER WOULD NOT KNOW WHERE HER CHILD WAS AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT
THIS DREAM BRINGS TO MIND THE JON BENET RAMSEY CASE AND HOW THE PARENTS MUST HAVE FELT.
