A woman had the most challenging task of raising three growing children alone when her husband died. It'd been four months since his passing, and they were still getting used to his absence.
After a chilling encounter with her four-year-old daughter, the woman took to Reddit to get things off her chest. She didn't know what to do, so she wondered whether strangers could help her with her ordeal.

"Honestly, I don't know what to say! My husband passed away four months ago. We have three kids together and our 4-year-old daughter was the one who had the biggest attachment to him," she wrote.
When the woman's husband was still alive, he allowed their children to sleep in bed with him. Their four-year-old daughter was the most attached to her dad. She cared for him while he was ill and would often bring him water so he could take his medication.

The Little Girl Had a Memorable Birthday
Out of the couple's three children, it was their four-year-old daughter who completely understood their family's situation. She knew her dad was ill and what was going to happen.
On the little girl's 5th birthday, the first one without her dad, she woke up crying at four in the morning. When her mom asked her what happened, she gave the most unexpected answer.

She claimed her dad went inside the room and kissed her forehead. Her mom wondered whether she confused her dreams with reality, but the little girl insisted.
"No, mommy. I know what dreams are like, and what happened wasn't a dream," she said. The young girl's answer gave her mom the chills.

Before her mom could say anything else, the little girl continued to describe the scenario. Her dad was wearing a black suit, which the mom revealed was the same suit they buried him in.
When the woman asked whether her dad said anything to her, the little girl shook her head and began crying again. She wanted him to talk to her, but he didn't.

The woman wanted to believe that what her daughter experienced was a dream. However, her daughter stayed up that morning and refused to close her eyes.
That alone proved to the concerned mom that her daughter's feelings were heavy about what she saw. Since that day, the young girl had been unusually quiet, and it bothered her mom.
While she wanted to comfort her daughter, she didn't know how to, especially since she was grieving herself. She wondered whether her situation made sense.

People Shared Their Own Extraordinary Experiences
People on the internet did not fail to disappoint. They shared their own experiences with people who had been laid to rest.
"My grandma came to me ten years after she passed in my dream. We hugged, golden endless, loving hug. She told me to wake up and go to my dentist appointment. I'd still be hugging her 40 years later. It was real," one shared.
"My son was 3 when my dad went into a coma. I was getting into the car for my last trip before he died. My husband at the time said he watched the car and told him, 'Pap got in the car with mommy. He wants her to feel better,'" another revealed.
Dozens of people shared their surreal experiences while they dozed off. Unlike many other dreams that are forgotten after one wakes up, these dreams are a lot more vivid – as if they were real.
While the woman never responded to any of the comments under her story, it's nice to know she had a place to draw inspiration from whenever she needed guidance on how to deal with grief along with her children.
If you were in the woman's situation, how would you deal with your daughter's seemingly supernatural encounter? What would you have told her?
