The following is from Song of a Wanderer: Beckoned by Eternity by Li Cheng (p 18):
A friend was calling from out of state to wish my family and me a Merry Christmas. As we talked about God, she said she was a believer and shared a recent experience. Several months before, her father was on his deathbed. She was terribly upset because her job prevented her from returning to Mainland China to see him, so she prayed earnestly, begging God to allow her to see him for one last time. One night, she dreamed that her father came to see her and touched her. Several days later, she received a long distance phone call from her home in Mainland China saying that her father had died. During the call, she described in detail the clothes her father was wearing in her dream. Her relatives were astonished, for what she saw in her dream matched his appearance when he died several thousand miles away. God had answered her prayer.
