I can’t believe… I had an extremely psychedelic, eerily real dream!

I dreamed that I’d been diagnosed with a rare heart condition—an incurable disease that slowly leads to heart failure. In the dream, I went to the hospital for all kinds of tests and blood draws, and the results said I only had half a year to live…
Then my wife accompanied me as we went around seeing doctors, and even my friends were concerned about me. Even though in the dream my body kept getting weaker, and I even felt dizzy and vision-blurry after walking only a few steps, it still felt genuinely warm…
Just when I had mentally prepared myself to face a slow death, a nurse brought me a huge barrel of carbonated drinks and told me to drink it all, saying that after I finished it, they would draw blood to check my condition…
When I looked at the barrel, it was over 5 liters of carbonated drink!!!
I thought, this can’t be professional, can it? Why…
Then I realized I was dreaming all along. The memories from real life started pouring into the dream, and in the dream I was so happy—like life was starting over again!
Because I knew it wasn’t real, and that my brain and subconscious were trying to send me some message…
After waking up, the first thing I did was recall the details of the dream. The environment, the conversations between characters—everything felt so real that even as someone who often lucid-dream, I took a long time to realize I was in a dream…
It was as if my consciousness had entered another version of me in a parallel universe, and I experienced what late-stage life is like for a patient with a terminal illness…
The luckiest part is that even in the parallel universe, my wife was still by my side…
Now I’m lying in bed, awake, and my heart feels more full, joyful, happy, and satisfied than ever!
