I have always had vivid dreams, but as my MS has progressed they've become even more vivid. I never have nightmares, and occasionally I have what I would call bad dream, but most of them are what I would call interesting and or entertaining. One thing I find unusual is I am hardly ever disabled in my dreams. Occasionally in a dream I may have trouble walking but that is as far as it goes. Since I am fully functional in my dreams mobility wise I find it hard to wake up and give up that mobility.
Lately my most common type of dream is that I am golfing with my sons who golf. The golf courses in my dreams are often very bizarre. The last one that I had there was a long par 3 that I drove perfectly with the 3 iron. The next few holes were like putting courses. The weirdest one was that you had to hit the ball about 10 feet into a Dixie cup posted on top of a stem. If you missed off the tee it was pretty much impossible to get the ball up into the Dixie cup. I am getting angry in that one and leaving the course.
There are times when I try to remember my dream but I can't. Some of the themes the last few weeks were very diverse. I remember one that had layered Jell-O. This morning I had a very lengthy one where my nephew had gone to Europe to the "old country" to find a wife and bring her home. When they arrived we found out they are enemies and follow them and we were having a shoot out with them.. In this dream I was very frustrated because I could not find any clothes to wear for the actual ceremony. I ended up wearing a pair of purple pants.
I also dream last night that I was harvesting corn for a friend with a horse-drawn combine type implement. He gave me a lot of money for every bag of corn we got for them.
There are many that I find entertaining but don't remember later on that day what they were. I remember in the morning but by the time the afternoon comes they are gone. I think they have been made more vivid because I take the drug gabapentin for the neuralgia I have in my feet. I don't think any of my other medications would do this because gabapentin is the one I take before bed and then again when my wife gives me pills before she goes to work. I fall asleep again after that until she gets me up around 930.
Well I don't have any real purpose in this post other than to just communicate something odd but interesting. Some dreams I have are similar to books I'm reading but have some bizarre twists that make it not describable when I wake. Again I find these entertaining!
One of my sons finds my dream descriptions interesting so that is one of the reasons I am posting this. It is now afternoon and I'm still wondering where on earth I would've gotten a pair of purple pants. I also wonder why on earth I would try to put them on, what an ugly color to wear.
One of the strangest series of dreams is that I was a leader of a Bible study. The dream was not strange, what is strange is that I would wake myself up because I can hear myself talking and explaining in these things out loud. I don't think the dog and cat really care.
