My father passed away last month, he was in front of me and lost consciusness, I called and shook his shoulder but no reaction at all, then he opened his eyes to look at something/someone at the end of the bed, he made a surprised expression, closed his eyes and stopped breathing.. I am sure someone came for him.

When my son was two, his dad died in a tragic accident. At that same time, I had lost my pregnancy. My son and I were in the car driving somewhere and I was sad about all of it. My son says to me " Don't worry momma, daddy has your baby". That was 20 yrs ago and I still think about that.

Awe, how wonderful!

My husband passed away from a fishing accident 13 years ago. In the moment that he was passing, I crawled into his hospital bed, pulled him into my arms and as he left this world, he died in my arms and his soul passed through my entire body. A few weeks later he came to me excitedly, explaining that he couldn’t show me everything, but as we both loved beautiful flower gardens, he wanted me to see “these flowers”. I cannot describe the beautiful things he showed me as he was able to reach his hands out over a magnificent flower and “bend” the “light” emanating from the flower. He was so excited! Then he told me that he was taking me back and suddenly I was back in my room. His presence embraced me, from head to toe, telling me he would see me when it was time and that he would never leave me, even when I couldn’t feel him, anymore. I began crying uncontrollably and begging him to take me with him. Please! Please! Don’t leave me here, and he kisses my cheek, smoothing my hair and then he was gone. Again. I know it’s crazy, but I believe he watches and when life is hard, I am comforted by his promise that he is always with me, even when I cannot feel him.

I can promise you they know what's going on here. I know for a fact, the Spirit World in amongst us. Our loved ones , if having lived a good life, are at peace and happy, and do not want to return for anything. Your husband was given a great permission to be with you, and to show you something, that is rare to be given that kind of permission. When you go to the Spirit World, keep an open mind, and listen to what is being taught to you, it will greatly affect your future. I don't think you need to worry too much about ever being apart again.

My grandmother was always asking me when I was going to have a baby. She said you better have a baby before I die! But unfortunately that didn't happen. In her last days, she was kinda in and out of sleep and she woke up and said, "where are those babies?". I told her I don't see any babies. She said "I had one in each arm and they look just alike. Ohhh, they were so cute!". I found out I was pregnant just after she passed... With twins! I believe God showed her my babies when he placed them in my womb and she did get to see my babies before she died.

I recently returned from a memorial service for my dad who died in hospice Thanksgiving Day. My mom told us that 3 days before he passed a team of interns came in with his doctor. One of the interns was a young man with blue eyes and blonde hair. When the interns left the room, he stayed behind and introduced himself as Josh. He spoke with both my parents, but paid close attention my dad, telling him he was in good hands and that everything was going to be fine. He placed his hand in my dads hand, said goodbye and that he would see him again soon. The next day the same group of interns came by. Except Josh. My dad asked where Josh was. The doctor said Josh? My dad said yes, the blonde haired young man who was here yesterday. The doctor looked confused and told him that they didn’t have an intern by that name. I believe this must have been his Angel.

My Mom had hallucinations a few weeks before she died. Although bed bound, she was at a party drinking champagne and eating chicken. She was laughing it up with all kinds of people having great time. I though it was really weird but just went with it because she was happy. She made gestures of eating and drinking. She was telling them all about herself and her life. She loved to have a good time. Later in the day the church Deacon visited Mom and was “introduced” to my uncle, Mom’s brother who died years earlier. Mom had a peaceful transition and died at home as she wanted with me, my brother and sister next to her supported by hospice. It was beautiful although very painful to say goodbye and let her go. I had a lovely vision of her saying goodbye a few hours before her passing. Its been a little over 2 weeks and I miss her so much. Love you Mom❤️

My mother passed away during the time I was battling cancer... I lived. But at the time I couldn't mourn my mother because my mind was in a state of severe concentration. A year later I thought of my mother everyday and STILL could not feel any mourning inside of me. I knew that was not good. I loved her so much! I missed her so much! I prayed to her all the time to let me feel something related to her passing. Finally one summer early morning I was having a dream... In my dream I heard the door bell ring... strange, since I did not have a door bell in the house. I went to the door and opened it up and THERE was my mother standing with her arms wide open and a huge smile on her face... she appeared to be about 35 years old and radiant... crying, I threw myself into her arms and said "Oh Mom, I miss you so much" She said back.." don't cry for me honey... I'm so happy and I want you to stop fretting about me... then she was gone just that fast. After I woke up I was ecstatic.. I truly had been in my mothers arms! I never felt bad again about her and not knowing where she was... In GOD'S hands. I still miss her terribly, but feel so close to her all the time.

I've been fighting leukemia for many years and oddly even though I was with my mom when she passed, I haven't accepted or mourned her yet. Idk why! I recall every detail of that night, but it's as if I'm watching someone else...someone else praying over their dying mom... I'm afraid when I finally allow the floodgates to open, I will totally lose it. But both parents were very sick at the time, in and out of hospitals and short term nursing homes and my dad lost his leg just 3 weeks after my mom died (they were married for 55 years, but neighbors through childhood). Its a blessing my dad doesn't remember how very sick she was. So I focus on trying to keep him here. My gut says when he goes, if I'm here still, BOTH will hit me at the same time. 😢🙏🙏

Years ago, I "adopted" an old gentleman, forgotten by the world. I called him one of society's forgotten and took him under my wing. Ten years later I was still with him when he passed in a lovely nursing home I was able to get him into. He had been unconscious for hours, but then he opened his eyes, stared into a corner of the ceiling and with his eyes followed someone or something across the ceiling and out the door. My belief is that it was his mother, whom he had lost as a very young child. Then he closed his eyes again. Shortly after that, he passed quietly. Yes, I believe in this.

Only get 15 chiropractor visits per yr. Cant take pain meds. I signed a DNR last yr. I am truly barely managing. Supposed to have helped but caregivers come and go. Yet I still am paying child support on last child till June 2023. When done, then I can maybe go into assisted living. Ohio let's us keep $30 a month for shampoo, etc. I dont know how they get to store. That gentleman was BLESSED to have you!!! I've been in hospitals with major surgeries alone. I've needed rides home after surgeries & they ASSUME somebody cares to bring and take you home after open heart surgery or gallbladder, or pancreatitis, etc. Nope. Not me. Only God/Jesus are my companions. I pray to be taken home soon. Ugh. Sad, but true. I hate burdening my step dad. God will bless you. Jesus said, "If you give EVEN a cup of water IN MY NAME, you will not lose your reeward." I pray you know Him. If not, please don't be offended but know you will reap good for that good you sowed.

Oh how sad.

The funeral home allowed me to keep my husband for three days in the home according to our beliefs. They kept him cold with a dry ice "vest." They were just wonderful about everything, and this opportunity to sit on the bed next to my husband of 31 years and talk to him and touch his face in death as I had in life meant the world to me.

When my grandpa was in the hospital dying of cancer, my mom was at his bedside. At one point she said he got this look of absolute wonder on his face and told her "I've seen heaven and it's nothing like the preachers say." He died shortly thereafter. He was a man of traditional christian faith his entire life.

Outstanding. I love that she says it doesn't matter 'why' those things happen - science or religion - it only matters that it does. Let's all stop arguing and just help those we love, and even those we might not even know, find peace and comfort in their final days and hours.

I love what you've written! Finding Peace is the best place we can find ourselves in! Meditating, saying little prayers to a Higher Power if you believe in that, and/or just talking with a dear friend or relative about the sadness. But no need for judgment to someone who is so obviously suffering. And I love what I've read about the dying person seeing something that makes them so happy and appears 'other worldly'! How awesome!! I couldn't ask for more for my beloved best friend and Sister who has been given only weeks or months to live. I sure hope she has that kind of experience! I will miss her terribly and can't think of life without her. We've been two peas in a pod for most of our lives. The people who live in the same building we do (in separate apartments) call us 'the Twins' lol. But we talk alot about happy memories from the past, and celebrate even a good night's sleep or just finding some small thing to be grateful for. I didn't mean for this to become a novel, but I guess I had a few things to say! Go figure!

Many years ago my grandmother lived with us. She had a gift...( I don know if I could call it a gift or not ) But she could see people who had passed away "spirits " She also knew when people were going to pass. One day she told mother that she was going die in a few days. She told my mother that she heard her mother call out to her three times which had already passed many years before. Now my grandmother was NOT sick at all when she said this to my mother in fact she was a picture of health at that time. That same evening my mother had a very Lucid dream of her father that had passed away saying that he was coming to take momma home. The following day my grandmother died of a massive heart attack.

Thank you for this! What you're doing is so important. My dad was extremely frightened of dying. He was in hospice care and his girlfriend of 20+ years passed away ( on my birthday!). Several days later I went to visit him and he told me that he saw Betty (his girlfriend),, she was sitting in the corner, and that she told him that he had nothing to be scared of. A week to the day after Betty died, my dad passed away. I was so relieved to know that he wasn't afraid anymore.

I'm an RN of 45 years this September. I have been there as patients pass on more occasions that I can count. For many younger nurses, the dying are "disturbing" for them. So I see part of my job is to help them in these situations. But also to be there is literally a once in a lifetime experience. Not just for the person dying, but for me as well. I have had the dying communicate with me, to give the family one final message. I have been there to help the person dying to not be so frightened with the experience as well. I have had members of my family visit me as they are transitioning as well. My son, who died in 2004, now helps me. I'm on this side, and he helps from the other side. How do I know? I was standing at the foot of a patient's bed, talking. He kept looking to my right, finally asking me why I didn't introduce the young man next to me. So I looked to my right and said "Well, tell him who you are." The patient seemed to be listening to this "person". The patient then looked at me and said "Why did you tell me this was your son? How long have you been working together?" With that, I said, "You tow have a great conversation. I have to see my other patients", and I left. Some time later, I came back into the room. The patient was visibly upset. The patient asked to see my son again. That is when I had to tell the patient that I can't just find him, that he will come back when needed. I then told him that my son was on the other side (dead). The patient then had a better understanding of what was said to him. Apparently, the patient had been thinking about taking his life. My son communicated that was not a good idea. The patient wanted to thank my son, so I told him "Just say that". After the patient did, he stated "I heard someone say you're welcome. Was that in my head?" I stated "Does it matter?". Now a few years have past, and this patient, last I know of, is still here. When we see each other, he will ask how my son is doing. I tell him "He's great". I have had several other experiences, too many for here. But this is as real as you want it to be. They love us. As when we pass, we will be met, loved, and be with those we leave here.

After 33 years, I finally met my dad the day he was in his funeral box. I was so mad I never had a chance to talk with him, not even one word. Helped lower him to the ground and stood over his grave as I was stomping him. Held on to the grudge for 2 years, 2 years later I felt my dad say good bye son I'm leaving now. Was the first conversation ever with him, couldn't stop crying... I was finally at peace with my dad and learned what the real meaning of forgiveness.

@marquettamiller608

In our lives it is easy for us to hold grudges, justifying the way we feel about those who have wronged us, making us feel a little less than loveable as we go through life. But, sometimes we have to stop and pause and perhaps understand that sometimes people just do the only thing they know how to . My father was no better and realizing how his mother tuned him up as she was a hateful woman which we all learned to hate. So there lies the great lesson for us all . After 60 years I am just beginning to even think about forgiving her for the misery she caused to everyone. I will pray for you as well as for myself. That is all we have realizing that there is a heavenly father that care for us , much more than we care for ourselves. May G-d be with you, Marty

My birth Dad, Dad #2 as he dubbed himself in our first conversion late in his life, is dying now. Due to Covid-19, I haven't been able to see him for 7 months. Thankfully he is at home and is in the loving care of the part of the family who live together, and resting peacefully. I so wish I could be there for him and everyone right now. These Ted talks help. Thank you to the speaker, Martha Atkins, who gifts us with her wonderful life's work. When I was 22, my Mom died at 60, and I still miss her and Dad #1.

Both of my parents spent several days in a silent coma before death, so I never got to spend those final moments with them lucid. On both occasions, I said my goodbyes, while holding their hands, just after the doctors would tell us it would be "very soon." While many family members would stay until the end, I would say goodbye, then leave the hospital. My fear was that I would make things harder for the other family who stayed, and I didn't want to cause pain. Both parents, (who died 7 years and three days apart) left us shortly after 3am, in December. Both times, I was asleep with the phone right by my head, waiting alone, for the call. And both times, I woke up just moments before their official time of death, because I could feel them in the room with me. Both times, I sat up, said goodbye, and just sat, numb, while waiting for the phone call that came just minutes later. The second time, it was my sister- she said, "Mom just left us--- but you already know that, don't you?"

Hello, how are you there my dear 🤗 I hope you're okay, and everyone around you, too?

I have been with my Mother and Husband when they died. My Mother, whom I was tasked with being with her that evening while our visiting family (8 Adults + 2 kids) where out for the evening. I was alone with her reading, and I suddenly noticed her breathing irregularity and coloration of hands/feet were changing (signs of passing) so I started to talk to her. I asked her if she was leaving, if she could wait until everyone returned? I was in tears because I was alone and was afraid I would be blamed somehow (loving but controlling siblings) for this happening. She had been in a coma for 4 days with no talking or facial expression, so I was very surprised to see a smile come across her face and hear her whisper "OK Susie - This is so beautiful, but I will wait." And she did. 15 minutes after my family returned, she passed. It was the most beautiful experience. 6 months later when I lost my husband of 25 years to cancer, he had a childhood sweetheart Penny (who was killed in a car accident when they were in their 20's) visit me the night before he died in a lucid dream. He had suffered greatly and had been in a coma for two days. Penny told me she was going to take care of him and to not fear for him, he was returning home. When I woke up from this dream/visit, I experienced a great sense of calm. I had know Penny too, and had enjoyed her friendship very much so I was surprised to see her but so full of peace. My husband passed the next evening with me and my son in the room, and he also smiled during his last breaths. 3 short years later I lost my son to a random act of gun violence (held up and shot dead instantly). Devastating, yes, but I understood then to pay attention; he too visited me to tell me he was going home, he was with his friends (I was surprised it was not relatives but his specific friends that I did not know) AND - "Mom it is so beautiful. Be happy for me." I literally cried in joy after months of crying in sorrow and sadness. How wonderful to have had these dreams (visits). The greatest gift I ever had was my mothers love and message of peace and beauty at the time of her death. I am now facing another loved ones death from Glioblastoma (brain cancer) and recently we found out his tumor has returned 1 year after surgery. This has been a totaly different experience and we are living day to day - absolutely in the moment. The disease is not encouraging in statistics (if you look up on the web). But - the journey is amazing for us both. He is not afraid and he is facing his situation with a strong sense of peace and joy. I am grateful for the honor to walk with him through this, and know all is well in God's Love. Know this - our Oneness is true, and Love is what makes up this Universe of Goodness that we are all a part, now and always, and I am very grateful to be living on our Earth together with all of you. Let there be Peace, Joy, Grace and Love for all of us - no exceptions.

My sister in law told us that mom opened her eyes and was looking up and smiled and then she was gone . So precious ❤

My mother was pretty much in a medically induced coma for weeks before she died from colon cancer. She hadn't waken, hadn't spoken, hadn't responded to anything for a long time. I was sleeping in a chair in her hospital room when I was awakened by her voice. I jumped up and watched her. I couldn't believe my eyes and was very sure that I must have been dreaming. She was talking as she turned her head to her left side, then towards the foot of her bed, then the right side. Like she was speaking to people standing on either side and at the foot of the bed. I asked her, Mom who are you talking to? She said Jesus. That was the last word she said. She passed away 2 days later. I was 24. From that day forward I have no doubt about the spirit world and that Jesus is real. That experience removed all doubt from my mind.

Yes.. I believe it! I was pronounced cardiac dead from drowning when I was 4. I remember the peace of floating in the water and not even noticing I wasn't breathing to standing in a beautiful field with a man in white who had skin that shimmered with the white light around him. He told me his name was Yeshua. I didn't know who that was at the time. My parents were baptist and I knew 'Jesus' but not Yeshua. 4yrs later my brother joined a luciferian occult and gave me to the leader as a "gift of loyalty". They demonized Jesus and did horrible things. I learned later on that Yeshua was Jesus' hebrew name at the time he was alive! This was the same man! He must have known His name would be destroyed in my future and gave me His real one so I couldn't account Him as a hallucination. There's no way I could've faked what I saw. Especially that I had to research His name to know it was the same one. We had a child's conversation. About how colorful the grass was, and how he wished I could stay there and talk with him. He kept looking off to his right.. what I know now was watching the medics revive me. I was sooo MAD to return to earth!

I love this it's exactly what my Grandmother told us as young children. I'm 65 years young. Have lost many love ones and friends. I've never been afraid to die. My 3 biggest loss was first Mt husband Bob, my grandson Austin who was only 6 last my oldest son Raymond he was 29. I celebrate their lives every chance I get. I have always known that my friends and love ones will be with when it's my time to die. Exactly 6 years after my oldest son Raymond passed away I woke up around 2:30 am. Setting at the end of my bed was Raymond. He said he just came to tell he was OK and I was right that his dad Austin and some of his friends who died way to soon was there so he would not be scared to let go. That he loved me and will always watch over me and his children . His youngest daughter was born exactly 4 months to the day and time of his death. He said mom I love your more than the ocean has sand and even more than that. That was what I used to tell.him. I've had 2 near death experiences. The next time I won't come back to this body.

Yes, Mx ric. Part of the reason for "running from it" could be our U.S. cultural norms that embrace youthfulness and avoid the topic of aging. I don't mean that negatively. It's just being realistic. Yet what the speaker in this video is saying Is true! As she says, she saw dying patients with their eyes "tracking". I saw the same thing when I was with my Mom just two minutes or so before she took her last breath.

Wow! I can't stop crying and it feels so right. I never witnessed the death of someone, but I'm one of those people who are secretly very scared of death, who want to talk about it but feel so alone - because in our society we don't talk about death in the way this wonderful woman did! This presentation triggered something in me and I suddenly feel some weird kind of relief and hope and joy. Thank you so much for that, Martha Atkins!

@PaulaPierrot - I feel the same way and I have held my Grandmother's hand when she died and regret that I wasn't there for my Grandfather but was asleep as a very young man when he died. This video made me feel just a little better and I cried and cried. Still crying. The little boy and the train really screwed me up. lol. :(. I want to find the comfort in it that you found - not even sure why I am typing this but to reach out to another human.

I worked as a hospice social worker for several years, and I can attest to the truth of this video’s message. I listened to their stories in awe, and was there at the end of their lives for some. It was a beautiful experience to learn for myself about dying and no longer fear it.

My mom passed in January. The surgical team perforated her bowel. I knew it was the beginning of the end for her. I fought for a solid month to bring her home on hospice. The other thing that needs to be discussed about the dying process. Death occurred in the home years ago as you said. The fight ahead of me to get her home was the most frustrating thing of all. I kept a journal from the beginning to the end. I often hoped she would have lucid moments where we could connect but they weren’t frequent. The last moment for her was requesting her wedding rings. She wanted to have them on her hand. She said her mother and grandmother had come for her. She asked that everyone leave and lock the door behind them. There wasn’t anyone there that day. As you said, it was comforting to me as well, that her family was waiting to receive her.

A friend of mine often tells of a car wreck just below her home. Auto was nearly crushed in a T-bone incident on a rural road. She and her husband were just leaving their home and they saw a small child walking up the road. They asked her who she was, why was she there, etc. She pointed back down the road where the wreck had happened and said, "my mommy is dead" When they got to the scene there was no way that any person could have gotten out of the car, it was mashed almost flat. They asked her how she got out of the car, and she said, "Oh, my daddy held me when the car wrecked, and he told me to come up the road and you would take care of me." Her daddy had been dead since shortly after her birth. Eventually, the people who had discovered her on the roadside did adopt her and she is in her early 20s now.

I am an RN and my hospice experiences have always had my patients sit up and talk to loved ones who’ve already gone. Lastly, the hand motions like pill rolling and reaching was a sure thing. What an honor to help people transition.

A few days before my mom died, I was in the hospital room with her. The whole night, she did reached her hand up and would babble words I don't understand. I was afraid and I thought its the strong sleeping meds that gave her the halucinations. I was there the morning she died, she didn't say anything though she was just gasping for air. But knowing others experiences gave me comfort so thanks.

As a caregiver of elderly, I have witnessed this several times. It didn’t freak me out. I was happy for these elders.

My 2 stories confirm this video: 1) The day my mom died there were two nurses with her (just making lunch, giving her phys therapy on her leg, and watching a funny movie). They said that she kept saying that she was “ready to go home” and she wanted to go home. Then she suddenly lifted up her arms as if someone was helping her out of her chair, and she had a happy look on her face. She passed quickly and easily. I think someone greeted her from the other side. 2) When my stepfather was dying he kept saying that he needed his tools and the 2x4 and a brace to fit the wood into. Im not sure what he was building, but it seemed to be some sort of transportation vehicle (raft or a sleigh or a hot rod car). I just went with it and said things like, “Okay we’ve got your tools here and I’m holding the brace in place”.

When my beautiful Mom died unexpectedly at 42,( she got what we thought was the flu a few days later she was in the Hospital and died that night) At around midnight she passed and My Grandmother had a dream that My Grandfather that died years before came to her and knocked on her door, when she saw him she was so happy and said"Come in come in! " He said" Im sorry I can't I came to tell you Im here to get Bonnie and she will be with me and it's okay " She woke up to the phone ringing telling her my Mom had just passed away, My Grandfather came to help my Mom to cross over! It's not in our minds it's real! They do come for us to help us cross over and as traumatic as it was to lose my Mom suddenly that way when I was so young, it gave me great comfort to know My Grandfather was there with her.

My beloved mom died in 2002 after a full life and a 54 year marriage to my father . My Dad was bereft but soon got on with his life and eventually remarried. He passed in 2011 at the age of 82. My daughter had a picture of my parents with her at her University graduation on her tv stand across from her bed. I called her from the road as I was rushing to be with my brother after he’d called to tell me Dad passed. It was late at night. When my daughter picked up the phone and I told her what had happened, she said “Mom, I already knew. I saw two dancing lights above the picture in my room. It woke me up. I know that Grandma and Grandpa are dancing together.” That was how they met. Dancing in the street at the end of the Second World War. When my Mom passed in 2002 we were exiting the chapel following behind her coffin. My then 1 year old granddaughter was sitting on my daughter in law’s lap at the back of the chapel. She raised her arm and waved at the coffin as it went by. My dear daughter in law said that it was the first time my little granddaughter had ever waved. I don’t wonder about the soul living on. I know it does.

I haven’t had any relationship with death at all, but I know it too. I always have. I don’t know why I know it. Or when it started. ❤

My husband died 4 years ago aged 62...he saw wonderful vistas, he dreamed he was having flying lessons and he saw his older brother who’d died 40 years on a motor cycle in the corner of our living room. Thank you Martha I’ve read 100s of books of this research and when it actually happened in MY life to MY loved one....it was so uplifting. Rather than just being sad....it felt like I was on holy ground.

Thanks for the reminder. My mum died over 10 years ago. I was with her the night before. I had taken some John Denver music is and played that in her hospital room. She loved that music because it reminded her of Dad. She asked me to pray with her. We only ever did this once in our life time and that was when my brother died. So I prayed with her and sang a few songs. After I prayed with her she asked me if I could see the angels coming down. I said 'No mum i didnt see them. They were here just for you". A nurse came in to wash her face and do a few bits and pieces. I shared this story with her and she just passed it off as an overload of hormones that the dying get. That took away the joy of that moment, I stayed with Mum until the morning came. She had passed away shortly after I left.

My Dad was dying of stage 4 cancer that had riddled his body. In his front room, provided with a hospice bed and excellent, noble nurses, he didn't speak for the last four days of his life. When his breathing became very erratic my Mom and Sister were on one side of the bed, I on the other and as he breathed his last, a tear pooled on his left eyelid (just like 24 hours earlier when I read from 2 Corinthians 4) and this word came across his lips very distinctly as if he'd mustered every bit of declarative deliberation: "HALLELUJAH!"

My dad passed Jan 2017 - I never knew what to expect having a parent pass. Grief, depression beyond anything I’ve ever experienced. I had a dream meeting my dad and asking him if he’s okay and told him I missed and loved him. Another dream was him speaking to a very happy Buddhist monk. It was comforting.

Mom died in hospice 1999. She elected to go into hospice due to congestive heart failure and a failed hip surgery which left her unable to walk or sit up anymore. She was 87. Her mind was clear, she was able to carry on conversations with me just as she always had. She told me just like it was FACT that she saw her sister several times in her room. They had conversations but didn't need to even talk outloud. They "understood" each other. Her sister was there to comfort her and was waiting for her. My Aunt Esther had passed way in 1977. I was surprised that it was this particular aunt and not my mom's twin sister who was also deceased, so was my mom, but it's just the fact that it was my Aunt Esther who came and went out of the room. Usually keeping Mom company in the late night and early morning hours. Then Mom said that Aunt Ester was waiting for her to pass over. She was ready. Mom said that she was getting rather frustrated that she kept getting "bothered" by the nurses who came in to check vitals and turn her over, etc. She wanted to take Aunt Esther's hand and leave her body behind. No one was near my Mom when she took her last breath at 2:00 AM, but I know she did not die alone. Not only was Mom comforted by her loved one's presence, so was the family that believed Mom was truly seeing eternity so close.

Strange coincidence. I had an Aunt Esther and my mother and aunt were identical twins. My mother died in January 1974 and her twin didn't die until about 2010. My mother had early onset dementia but her twin never had it and was clear minded when she died. They were born in 1914. Are we related do you think? My mother's maiden name was Brooke (last name).

Loved your talk. As a retired nurse, I can say I totally agree with all of it. It is so fascinating to me to hear you speak of all theses unique phenomenon; I have experienced seeing all of them in my patients. I loved being with my DNR patients & those that severely critical or passed on unexpectedly, as they were crossing over that fine thin veil that separates us from them. I never expected to find such comfort in compassion when I choose this profession. I am so grateful. Thank you so much for your work & inviting us all to be open about this subject. Wish you the best!!

My dad kept saying "it's the grand finale" but was bitter until the very end. He refused to talk to anyone - not surprising at all. That was just the way he was. I love him and loved him and understand everyone responds to their ending in different ways.

When my mum was dying 10 years ago I got out of work early to visit her in the hospice, when I got there she seemed really happy and was very lucid, she said to me she wished I come up a few minutes earlier as my gran who was her mum had just left and she'd had a lovely time talking to her, my gran had passed twenty years earlier. It had really given my mum a lot of comfort which was so lovely.

When my mother died in 1997 she was in a hospice/nursing home facility also dying from congestive heart failure. My brother and I went to visit her the evening she died. She told us to look out the window of her room, 3 floors off the ground. It was a beautiful evening with a stunning sunset. She was smiling, in good spirits, and told us that her ride was outside the window and waiting for her. She described it as beautiful large, multi colored balloon with a basket just hovering there. She said she would stick around till it was time for us to go home and then she would be leaving, she didn't want to delay her ride. We assumed it was the medications she was on, and possibly a hallucination too. So when we left she said she would leaving on her ride, and cheerfully kissed us goodbye. Both of us no sooner got home than the nursing home called and said she passed away peacefully. Yeah, I hope I'm so lucky!

Then she said she needs to travel. She wants to fly back to her hometown in Europe. We booked the tickets, and since then she's been dreaming of my dad telling her NOT to be afraid of the journey, as he'll be with her. I am scared and don't know what to do. Are these signs that her end is near? Should I let her take this flight? Thanks!

I was reminded when my grandfather Died, he spent last days asking god “why, why now” followed by conversations to people who aren’t there, asking the doctors and nurses why his room was always so crowded, when there were only two people in the room. Death is a natural thing and I understand that now. It is a transition not an end. Thank you

I was caring for an elderly woman in a very rural area. She appeared to be dying and called the local fire dept/emt service . Kathryn was loved and respected so when the call went out over the radio. Every body showed up . We had a packed house of emt’s on duty, off duty anybody passing by. People standing in the kitchen. All of a sudden , a man by the name of John came carrying an old fashioned doctors bag. A path to Kathryn cleared and All of the Emt’s got out of the way. Kathryn lit up like a Christmas tree, flirting with Dr. John. He took her vitals and she was fine. Nothing was wrong . Dr.John packed up his bag and everyone left. Three months go by and Kathryn doesn’t feel well. We call the Fire Department to find Dr. John’s phone number so he can stop by the house to see Kathryn. The EMT’s and Firefighters told me no such man exists. Furthermore, they were at the house that afternoon and no Doctor made a house call. It was myself and another caretaker saw him and talked with him. So we knew we weren’t crazy. We later find out her deceased husband was named John, too.

Thank you for talking about death as a natural experience to be accepted when it comes, not an enemy to be fought with everything we can. As my body gets weaker with age, I would love to have a conversation about death with family members, but they all respond with fear and rejection. There have been times when I wondered if I was dying. To know that my family would accept my death when it comes naturally would give me great comfort for however long I have left to live.

My children are currently atheists. My worst fear about dying is that they won't think of me as Mom watching over them. Or that they may never talk to me after I pass. But I don't believe in people pushing their spiritual views on others so I don't. I hope though that something occurs for them so they believe too.

"we need less fear around death and dying" Very powerful words..

Three years ago I had a series of six cardiovascular incidents over a period of three days and each time I died. I was very fortunate to be resuscitated (once by paramedics, the rest in intensive care). I remember being someplace in the company of a close friend (deceased) who kept asking me if I wanted to remain or go on. I don't remember what I decided, but obviously I am still here (with a defib in my chest). I woke up in intensive care after six days not knowing how I got there or why. While I was recovering, many of the medical staff would ask me if I remembered anything during that time. I didn't tell them because at the time my experience was too precious to me to tell strangers. Later I did tell a friend who later told an acquaintance (who at the time was dying). That person then would just stare at me from a distance. Really creepy. I would hesitate to relate my experiences to anyone else. Glad, though, for this chance to tell my story in a semi-anonymous way.

To the family of hospice patients, remember to ask WHO they see and write their names down. THEY are souls you can call upon from the other side, to help you with your own healing. Most importantly, THANK THEM for "showing up". They continue to share their loving energy with us, as we grieve the loss of the person we love. Martha, you're right, it doesn't matter whether or not anyone believes. This REALITY BLENDING between body and soul takes place regardless. When it's each of us, we are either SUPRISED or RE-ASSURED. Either way, We turn out great!

My Mother passed in my arms. I remember saying "Mama, is Jesus as beautiful as we believe. She shook her head yes. I said take his hand. Go to him.

My first son passed away at 15 after fighting medulloblastoma that returned throughout his spinal cord. He was scared because he was under a medically induced coma and when he came out he could hear other children in the Hospital. He was troubled by a crying baby. He had a baby brother at home. I thought he missed his brother but he was worried about the crying baby in the hospital. He thought he was in jail because of the vertical blinds looking like bars to him. He was so more peaceful at home hospice. He couldn’t breathe and the oxygen tank was turned all the way up but he was still turning blue. The nurse came over to help bathe him and when she turned him on his side I told her to hurry because he couldn’t breathe. But she said oh we need to do a real good job. I said hurry he’s dying and called my family members over and the nurse ran out of the house and I was so worried because she was crying so I tried to run after her and my baby died right there while I went after her. There was some one else there but I wish I hadn’t worried one bit when she ran , I wish I would have stayed right in front of him and he would know I was there for him...not worried about a nurse

I think he knew you were close. I'm an only child and sat with both my parents during their last hours- they were both unconscious. In both cases I said to them 'I'm just popping out for a minute. I'll be back soon'. In both cases the nurses told me that they were likely to live for a few more hours. In both cases they died a moment or two after I went out of the room. I think perhaps they were trying to spare me actually seeing them die, or perhaps it was just easier for them to go without me holding them back.

My Mom was 3000 miles away and appeared clearly in front of me. I knew she was going but could not be with her. I burst in tears and she made me understand it was all okay. My heart just ached. When i got home, a phone call then verified that she had died at the time she appeared to me.

I remember my great grandma used to say people were in her room before she died. Everyone thought she was crazy, but she probably was seeing them. I do believe in an afterlife and that people send us signs. I can think of numerous instances in my own life where this is true. I remember having this bizarre dream that my parents were talking about doctors and my grandpa not getting the help he needed. I got up and when I got in the kitchen, my mom informed me my grandpa died that night. He died of some illness in the hospital. Talk about freaky coincidences. My mom also experienced something similar before I was born. She was babysitting my cousin and woke up suddenly in the middle of the night. She had this horrible feeling and checked to make sure my cousin was ok. My cousin was fine, but later on my mom found out her brother died in a fire that night. I think it was a sign. I have nothing to base it off of, but that is way too freaky to be a coincidence. It’s weird how people are so close minded to the thought of there being an afterlife. There are way too many out of body experiences as well. People describe things that actually happened or details that only someone in the room would be aware of. You can’t tell me that those aren’t real.

I was an aged care nurse in a beautiful Nursing Home. It's a sad fact that when the dying seemed to be in pain or discomfort, they were given morphine to dull their pain. A great many people passed away, drugged to their eye balls. They very few who I had the most pleasure to be with, when they died, were the ones that died quickly, over a couple of days and weren't medicated. It was a beautiful experience and moments I will never forget.

I am wondering if that is why I never had these experience with my mother-in-law or my dad because they were so morphined up? My dad wasn’t in any pain I don’t know why he was on morphine. just had dementia. I feel like the hospice people gave my mother-in-law too much of a dose of morphine the night before she died and she went into a coma and there was really nothing coming from her and I’m not even sure she really understood she was dying. One of the last thing she said was that she didn’t want the pills but also she was in pain (from cancer) I feel like she was trying to say “I’m all right with the pain don’t drug me”; I’m glad other people have had great experiences.

My oldest daughter and I have had several experiences with family members after they have passed. We feel privileged to have these connections with them. It’s been a blessing.

"You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You." Isaiah 26:3

About a week after a family member (Pat) died I had a dream. I was walking through a long room with a row of seats up against the opposite wall. On the seats were all these people. They were all excitedly chatting with each other and I had a sense that they were waitng to board a train or a bus or some form of transport. As I continued walking towards the end of the long room I noticed that one of the people looked just like Pat. I knew it couldn't be her because she had died a week before. I hadn't realised I was dreaming. I carried on walking and just before I went throught the exit I looked back at her one more time. She looked at me and came toward me smiling. She hugged me and called me a name that only she ever called me. I felt confused. I said to her, "Pat, I thought that you died". She answered, "Yes, and I woke up laughing when I realised what it was all about". I asked her what she meant and she said, "never mind we'll see each other again". I woke up and my face was wet with tears. It was real for me.

The night before I was called to go to the VA, and told my dad had gone into a coma and his body was shutting down, I had a similar dream. My dad was in a place that I took to be a transport waiting station...a long room with white walls, and it was filled with people who were kind of milling around. My dad, who died in his 70's, looked like pictures I had seen of him, as a man in his late 20's or 30's. He was not in distress or anything, just waiting. He died 10 days later, after a prolonged dying process. In the dream, he didn't notice me, but I saw him.

Same happened to me. My grandfather had been real sick and frail from fighting cancer. I remember i was in a normal dream that suddenly stopped. Then i find myself in what i registered as a train station but everything was pure white. I saw my granddad. He looked amazing and i said "you look better". He said he feels better. That was the end of it. I didn't think much of that dream that morning until my dad called and told me my grandfather passed away that morning.

Thank you for sharing. My mom passed in June 2021 in my home with hospice. I was just talking with my hospice counselor about the importance I feel now, that the dying and caregivers know what to expect and have open discussions to reduce fear and find more comfort. Caregivers are in crisis mode and need that type of support. ❤️

In 1987, my grandmother at age 80 (and I, age 31) said, the day before she died in her sleep, "why is my mother over there in the corner?" Her mother died in 1946, and my grandmother talked endearingly about her, constantly, for as long as I could remember.

I had a glimpse of this in the ER when a doctor told me I might die. I saw my parents, husband and dog through a sort of portal. The dog was the only one who seemed to notice me. She was scratching to get through to give me kisses. The others looked fine; no sign of their illnesses, no canes or walkers or anything. I didn't say it to the doctor cuz I didn't want a psych evaluation, but I thought, if this is all there is to dying, it's ok. See you on the other side!!

Anna: I don't believe you. There is something silly and dishonest about what you wrote. There is no life after death. You did not see you parents, dog, etc. If you did, you were hallucinating, but I think you know you are bluffing for the intent of this thread.

This was awesome to watch. I have been with three people that have died, with the most profound being my mother. She saw people, angels and even had what looked like a life review while I watched. She even told me something that the "others" in the room had seen me do when she was asleep. She mentioned a silver cord that she saw that connected me to her, and to every living creature on earth that all connected us to God. There was a LOT of spiritual energy going on at that time, that I won't get into but I will say that she told us that she was waiting for "Joe" to come and get her. He was my dad who had died 6 years before her. 2 people had seen him in the house during the week before she died. The day she died her mom was with her in the room. She smelled my father's cologne and felt his hands on her shoulders. My mom then stopped breathing. It was the most profound experience of my life.

Miracles Same with my mother who passed in 2010. The day before she came home from the hospital my sister and I went to see her around noon and when we went into the room she asked us if we had a brush and a mirror. My sister and I looked at each other and then asked her why she needed a brush (she was bald from chemo). I gave her my brush and mirror and she looked in the mirror and started combing her hair as if she had long flowing hair. She put on some lipstick and then asked us to leave again. My sister and I were in shock because my mother loved to have us shower attention on her and it was not like her at all. She said we had to leave because my dad was coming to see her and sleep with her and he wouldn't come as long as we were there. It was as real to her as anything. My father had been dead for 5 years. My mother passed away the next day at home.

Love this Martha Atkins, very powerful, warm and engaging woman, bless her

When my mother was dying of cancer, in my brother's home, she called out loudly to her sister, Ronnie, who had passed 20 years earlier.

This is shocking, before mum passed away before her voice went she pointed up and said they are here. I remember me getting gussbumps.
