He died more than 2.5 years ago, after a three weeks of illness caused by cancer we didn't know about.
He was very abusive, verbally, financially and in the months before he died, physically which he was arrested and cautioned for. Frankly it was a relief for me he suddenly passed away and I made no secret of this - except as far as DCs are concerned.
My life is very different now and I don't spend much time dwelling on him or the past, however I am suddenly having dreams about him generally with the same theme. I did have a spate of them 6 months to 1 year after where he was back from the dead and going to die soon, but I didn't know when, and I didn't know what he was going to do as he wouldn't speak to me.
The latest ones I am having centres around him trapping me in a room and attepting sexual contact with me, which I refuse and also being angry and shouting at me. In the dream I know he died and cannot understand how someone can die yet come back, and I don't know how to get away. At this point I usually wake up. they are disturbing to say the least as I have had at least 5 over the last couple of months. I wake up with a start and feel absolute relief as they are so real.
Appreciate any thoughts
