Experience description:

I dreamt I was at a party in a house, family and friends were there but I don't remember anyone specifically I just knew I was around familiar people. Across the room I saw my brother. At that moment I became lucid, knowing that I was dreaming and that I now could talk to him. My thought was, well here's an opportunity to talk to Bruce. (A little background, Bruce was the healthiest family member and the first to die. He not only worked from home but ate healthy and had a full gym in his home which he worked out a lot there.) So I walk up to him in the dream and asked him, 'Bruce why did you die now?' He looked at me a bit puzzled and sort of made a motion with his hand like indicating 'just a minute' and disappeared. He then returned and he shrugged his shoulders like he didn't quite understand the answer but this was the answer, he said 'karma'. The dream ended. I thought that makes sense because I can't think of any other reason he would die at that time. After his death I learned he had had times where he had trouble breathing and the morning he died at home he was was getting ready to go to the hospital for tests. He was healthy, happy and was in a really good place. So his answer to my question made sense to me.
