Nightmares! - Interpret This one.

[qu0thraven]

Besides some amount of Insomnia, which is uncharacteristic for me, I have also been having Nightmares lately. After Watching "Shaun of the Dead" (which I liked MUCH better than I expected... that's the British for you). I dreamed that my babe was sick. He had been bitten by something and he was trying to bite everything. According to the doctors it would go out of his system, but if an adult were bitten it would be fatal. I think we were calling it Tetanus. I couldn't do anything with the babe. I could not nurse him, obviously. I couldn't safely hold him down with one hand to change his diaper. He kept struggling furiously and trying to bite us. He was making these weird hungry noises and as time wore on it escalated into noises of horrible piteous suffering. I talked with my husband and logically deducted that the only thing we could do was to chop off his head (this was the 'safe' way to end the life of one so afflicted) to end his suffering as I just couldn't manage to do anything with him. Just then my own Mum shows up. I disappear the axe behind my back Cartoon style, where it just kind of disappears. My Mum outraged at the babes condition, he is so thin and unhappy, diaper is a disgrace and she grills me about it a bit, snatching him up deftly and starting to care for him with expert agility. Why didn't you pump and bottle feed him? Why couldn't the two of you manage to change him etc. she asks while I explain how truly helpless I have been. So she instruct me to call a doctor, I already called ER I protest. She is like -fat lot a good that did ya. So I call at her insistance... and they are both asking me questions and throwing the same medical jargon around. So I hand the phone to her. It is around this point the situation changes from a "Zombie" type situation to more a "Medical" thing like tetanus. None of the perameters change, we just get more information and it seems more managable. We just have to keep him alive for like 5 days (3 more days I think) and in reasonable health otherwise and it will blow out of his system. The doc advises more on just how to accomplish this while protecting ourselves. Anyway, it may not sound like it, but it was just awful, that dream! Ok, obviously dreams cannot hurt me but it makes me wonder what issues I might have on my mental plate that I am apparently not facing. I have some ideas... I think. You?
Anyone else have any Nightmares or particuarly interesting dreams you would like to share? It might be fun to try to interpret them. Though the best interpretations are I interactive (probably in person) between an "Interpreter" and the "Dreamer".
