Answer 1

I am sorry for the loss of your friend's cousin - obviously you feel a closeness there and therefore some pain.

Your dream suggests that you had some knowledge of your friend's and her cousin's activities or habits and perhaps some event led to a subconscious fear of what happened.

Are you meant to help others in some way through your dreams?  Possibly.  Are you in some way responsible for not having shared your dream before this happened?  Absolutely not.  Was there some 'connection' that enabled you to 'foresee' this tragedy?  Likely - read on:

Do (or did in the case of the cousin) they frequent some place of danger to swim?  Barrow pits, mine pits, etc.?  Unattended beaches with rip currents, isolated pools, take chances with diving into shallows or around rocks?  Is a river involved - running waters with eddies, trees, etc.?  Much depends on circumstances here.

Why?  Because more than you having a 'psychic' dream right out of the ether, it is more likely that some set of cues triggered an alarm deep in your subconscious mind and set this dream into motion.  Think about it - were there 'warning' signs that these too were at some risk of this happening by their habits or activities?  Sometimes we think little of such things - it's 'just who they are, what they do' - and they've done it a million times with no bad results.

But that creature inside us - the one of caution finally takes notice and sends a faint signal to a deep part of the mind.  The conscious mind is not so interested - it is preoccupied with wakful life.  Then in your sleep, the mind starts shuffling files and discarding things - and dropping messages once in a while as it does so - and there is your dream.

Psychically gifted?  Perhaps.  Who am I to say, or to say what that really is.  But the mind does most definitely work in the way I've described.  Is it a gift if not 'psychic' in the sense we often think of?  Most definitely it is.  You seem to have a perceptive mind and good sense to go with it.  

Again, you need to know that you are not responsible for the loss of your friend's cousin in any way - never allow yourself to feel that you failed in saving her (or him).  But - you may be awakening to this 'gift' - one of at least keen observation and faithful sensitivities by which you might may reasonable suggestions to others for their welfare.  If it is more, well, that's beyond true human understanding, at least as we know ourselves today.  But it is still a gift of observation, understanding and a care for others.

Use it wisely, not as one who would blow the trumpet at every breeze - that will only alienate and not help.  Know too that you are human and therefore not perfectly gifted - you will never see all things before you, nor will you always perceive or warn others effectively.  Sometimes you will alarm others unnecessarily if you take this too seriously or are not careful.

In short, you have a good, keen mind and great heart - use them well.

All the best to you.

Answer 2

To see someone dying in your dream, signifies that your feelings for that person are dead or that a significant change/loss is occurring in your relationship with that person. Alternatively, you may want to repress that aspect of yourself that is represented by the dying person.
