A great post, thank you!
I agree about the 'denial of death' idea. After a friend died, I dreamed of arguing with him - 'What're you doing here? You're dead!' 'No I'm not, that's just a story (the girlfriend) is putting about!'
Dreamed of my late father too, who seemed to have turned up for his own funeral.
When I reminded him of his death he showed me his new Action Man-like featureless torso and said 'I'm all changed now.' I took it that he was changed into spirit, as he believed he would be at death.
I had a very brief conversation with her that went along the lines of me telling her she was dead and wondering how she was here, to which she replied "Not like that!" with a smile. I woke up then.
