I am happy ICE has passed peacefully, and no longer dealing with the cancer. I'm sure Benny was there to welcome him. Take care during your time of mourning. My heart goes out to you.

Yes! I frequently have dreams of both Jake and Waldo (I lost Jake about a year ago; and I lost Waldo almost 5 months ago).
For a while after I lost Jake, I'd have nightmares of us in dangerous situations. It was up to me to save Jake from whatever nightmare was presented to me at the time. That dream always ended with me getting close enough to reach out to Jake, but then I'd wake up. I never knew if I saved him or not.
But after a while, long before Waldo passed, I started having dreams of Jake visiting me. These were everyday situations.... In one dream, I was just lying in bed when Jake came up to me and put his head against my hand. I sat up to hug and pet him. It was so real I cried when I woke up.
Then Waldo passed. The same recurring theme of a dream occurred after Waldo passed. I was always trying to save him from something.
Before Waldo's last breath, I told him how much I loved him. I also told him to find Jake and take care of eachother.
Soon after the nightmares passed, I began having dreams of Jake AND Waldo, together, visiting me. I've only had a few of these so far, since it took a while for the nightmares to pass.
But, again, these were amazingly vivid and awe inspiring. I feel more like I travelled to another place for some time, rather than that I was just sleeping and dreaming.
In one dream, I was walking Bubba and Peanut in our fields out back when Jake and Waldo came out to greet us. They have never met Bubba, so I was able to introduce them all. Peanut was so excited and ran right over to say hello to her two old companions. After introductions and greetings, Peanut and BUbba just played around us. Me, Jake, and Waldo sat together and watched. I picked up Waldo into my lap like I always did when he was with me. (Jake was still too heavy for me to lift.) I could feel his fuzzy little body against mine.
Sigh. They are always so real. Just those dreams, when they visit me. All my other dreams are normal dreams.
Well.... that was a ramble.
Goodness, I miss my babies.
