Another new member wanting to say Hi!

**Mikee** · 10-17-2007 10:16 AM

Hello everyone,
Just want to introduce myself. I have been Lucid dreaming now for 17 years, I started at the tender age of 14. Unlike some I didn't have to train to do it. As far as I am aware i've always been able to change items within a dream, but at 14 I was diagnosed with a brian tumour and only days to live. the emergency opperation lasted 8 hrs and I was lead to believe it was touch an go in the theatre a couple of times. But since then my dreams have been amazing.

In my dreams I can fell hot and cold, see colours and even taste which i only discovered a few months back when i was dreaming i was on a skateboard going down a hill and thought, if there's a stone on the floor i'm knacked and low and behold there was the stone and over i went smacking my head on the floor. The tase of blood filled my mouth and being concerned i woke myself up only to find i hadn't cut my mouth at all and there was no taste in my mouth.

Wierd huh?

There is so much that happens I just want to talk to people about without being judged as wierd.

But hey I found all you guys! So hello and I'm sure i will speak to you all soon.

Hey, welcome to Dreamviews!

It's good to hear you recovered so well from your brain tumor. I'm sure that was a tough time in your life.

What fun would dreams be if you had to risk being hurt in waking life?

If you have any questions, feel free to ask, we've got a great community here.

Thanks people, I still have the tumour. Part of it was inopperable. I had radio therapy and so far it's not grown. Hey maybe it's the tumour that gives me the ability to change dreams.

Next wierd question can anyone see and speak to loved ones that have passed away? I regularly have conversations with my Grandad about my life now. I even bring my kids into my dream so he can see them. Is this normal?

Mikee, welcome to Dream Views!

I'm glad your tumor hasn't grown and may it always be so.

You may wish to record your dreams and share them with us by entering them in the Dream Journal forum: http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...splay.php?f=26

I've spoken with those who've passed on in non-lucid dreams and once held my deceased dog in a lucid dream so I would like to believe that anything is possible and "normal" is often in the eye/mind of the beholder.

Again, should you have any questions, please ask and we'll do our best to get you answers.

Hi Mikee,

That's amazing that you survived your tumor, and after that you began to have amazing dreams. I agree with feeling all the senses, I experience that too.

Cherie
