Out of the blue

I had a freind that died unexpectedly . We didn't talk to each other over a 4 year period, due to a falling out. A week before he died, I had out of the blue wondered what impact it would have on me if I got a call saying that my freind passed away. It was just a weird thought, but I was thinking that maybe it was a sign that I should try and revive our friendship. He was a very important person to me , at a very crucial part of my life. He was a freind that I would go to at any time , day or night and knew I could count on him. He was very in tune with me. He and I were not involved romantically, it was just a unique friendship . Something happend a long time ago that made me upset , I felt it was more of a betrayal between us, so I decided to end our friendship . It was hard and It basically changed my life. I blocked emails and just made it impossible to communicate. I would think of him every so often, realizing that I found myself thinking of all the good times. When I had the weird feeling about him dying I emailed him. I told him that I just wanted him to know that he was and always will be an important person in my life. I told him that I know I was important to him too. I said if anything ever happend to one of us , we would be devastated not making peace with each other. He agreed with me and we almost instantly put everything behind us. We talked and chatted thru our facebook almost 8 hours exchanging stories and pics, laughing and catching up with events during our absence .. A few days pass and I decided to go online to see how he was doing. It showed he was online and so I sent him a instant message. No response, nothing odd though because he usually was doing other things. I fell asleep that night but woke up , finding myself scratching my arms and neck , I woke my husband and was starting to get anxiety. My throat swelling up fast I was starting to panic and broke out crying saying something is wrong, asking for my husband to help me . He started getting dressed, it was almost time for him to go to work, so he told me he would take me ASAP. While he was getting dressed I stuck a pen in my mouth , in case my throat swelled shut I would use the pen to offer a space for air to get thru. So I calmly just lay down , and closed my eyes and told myself to relax.. As fast as it happend , it ended. I felt drained but I was showing signs of improvement , swelling in throat ended, and stopped itching. I told him I was ok and he left for work. I was woke up by a call from a freind , telling me that tony had died during the early morning. (Tony is the freind I have been talking about) I jumped up yelling asking what they were talking about. I hung up and ran outside and starting crying and I called my mom , she asked if I wanted her to go get me. I told her just stay on the phone and talk to me. I calmed down , I all of a sudden had a burst of relief... I was thinking how glad I was that we had made peace, still not ok though , but that is the only thing that has given me peace. What I want to know now is, was it a coincidence that I had thought about him dying , and that i needed to make peace. Cause it feels like something brought us together , for the purpose of making peace and saying goodbye.
