Bird,

Since Frodo's Dreme was included in a margin in one of teh copies of the Red Book of Westmarch, it couldn't have been written by Frodo AFTER he got to Tol Eressea. It would have been one of his traumatic dreams before he left. Maybe, thinking about leaving, he was worried about "what if I don't fit in."

Sharon, in terms of Frodo not getting healed-- I don't think anybody is completely healed this side of eternity. (The power of sin can be defeated here; the presence of sin is eliminated there.) But I certainly hope that he didn't end up in the same nightmarish state on Tol Eressea that he was in when he left the Shire! (wails at the thought)
