[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was taking care of my dad.  He had a terminal illness.  The end was near. I was keeping him company in the hospital overnight.  My dad started talking to his brother, who had been dead for 25 years.  I realized that my uncle had come to escort daddy over to the other side.  It was kind of neat to "see" that.  And I felt reassured that daddy had a friendly escort for the next part of his journey.

This happens a lot with dying people[/quote]

I was going to say the same thing. I work with terminal cancer patients and hospice patients and I see this often. I also see many patients who wait for a family member they haven't seen in a while to come see them. And shortly after the visit, they pass. 
Also seen many who are surrounded by people all the time and the first moment when nobody is around, they pass. Usually those are parents surrounded by their children/grandchildren, perhaps trying to spare them.

I have many times come to a patient's room because someone called me to say they weren't breathing. So I go in and put my stethoscope up to the patient's chest and hear the very moment their heart stops beating. It gives me chills every time.[/quote]

When my mom was unconscious and on her deathbed, it was sadly taking awhile. Her caregiver said we should all take time to say our goodbyes and tell her it was ok to let go. We did, and a few hours later she died. Her caregiver said she sees that often. [/quote]
