Shirley,
The two of you of being dead could suggest there is something that is 'dead' in relationship between you and your son. And/or it could mean something has or is coming to an end. There is something you have been thinking about coming downstairs 'from the head'} and you are opening up to it emotionally. The rules set out by your son may suggest you may need to be less emotional {downloading} in this aspect in the relationship with him. Pressures may be spilling over and affecting that relationship {turning slightly toward him}. You may be letting your 'depressed' attitude {grey wallpaper you put up} get in the way of your relationship. What should be a more normal relationship with you and him is 'dead'.
As for the change in the dream. Your granddaughter walking toward he mother would indicate good feelings about your granddaughter who is ready to learn to walk on her on. But those feelings are not there when it comes to your son. The relationship between you and he have become different from those you have with your daughter. This is a continuation of the strains in the relationship in the first part of the dream.
Has there been something recently that has affected your relationship with your son? Is there some aspect of that relationship that is coming to an end {dead}? This seems to be the primary message from the dream. Such emotional experiences in your waking life could cause you to wake up the way you did after this dream.
Thanks jerry .................. I do understand your interpretation of my dream, thank you ...... My mum has not been well since last October (a fall where she broke her nose, and damaged her ribs, followed by a stroke 10 weeks later], and I have been spending a lot of time with her. I try to see my son and his family as often as I can, but with home life, work and Mum, I don't see him as much as I feel I should or as much as i would love to, and it makes me feel sad, because I personally feel it is building a wall between us (my feelings) ......... Thank you once more jerry ... I will work on my emotions, and try not to 'download' them onto him :o) x
