As a young nurse’s aide working Night Shift in a hospital, my first experience with an end-of-life patient was so comforting to me. I’d been terrified of death for the previous dozen years since my dad’s death when I was a schoolgirl. But this sweet old woman, literally on her death bed, complete with oxygen mask, urinary catheter and IV fluids (sorry about that but she didn’t seem to have distress from the fluids). This lady spent her last hours interacting with loved ones. She would address them by name, tell them how long it’s been or how good they looked. “Oh Jimmy! Look at you! It’s been so long!” Her eyes would flit to someone else and she’d be excited to see that person too. She told them that she would be there soon and she didn’t know why it was taking so long. I swear she was the sweetest most delighted person! Her focus seemed to be at that space where the wall meets the ceiling. I hadn’t heard about this behavior but it was so genuine and natural and so full of pleasure that it just made sense of the moment for me. I’ll always be grateful for that evening. She passed before the shift ended and the orderly who came to take her body away actually carried her body in his arms, like a sleeping child, laying her on the special drop-bottom gurney outside her room. The way he set her head down so carefully sticks with me. So much tender care. That lady did not die alone. No living relatives were in her room, but there is no question in my mind that she had a whole entourage hanging out with her from beyond the veil.

In 2006 I had just started chemo for an Infiltrating Lobular Breast cancer tumor. I felt close to the possibility of death. One morning I woke up and heard my deceased father’s voice. He said, “You are going to get well”. Through six months of treatment I could feel him, my grandparents, aunts and uncles, and my father and mother-in-law all around me. The veil between life and death felt very thin.
I did get well.

Just before my mom died, she told everyone about her brother. She didn't have a brother. It turns out, her brother was stillborn, but he was there waiting for her 77 years later. Mind blown.

My mom died several years ago in a local hospital. Prior to her death she was really unable to sit up in bed but she was still aware and communicative. The day she died I was alone with her in the room. We'd spoken about so many things that day and while no one told me it was clear mama was dying. About 15 minutes prior to her death she suddenly sat up in bed, reached her arms out and had the most beautiful smile on her face. She remained that way for a few minutes and honestly the room felt as if it was inhabited by holiness. I was unable to speak and instead just watched her in amazement. I kept thinking that either the Lord himself had come for her or perhaps it was my grandfather who mama loved so much. Finally, she lay back down and she passed a few minutes later. I'll never forget that. It honestly helped keep me sane in what was a horrible time. I hope she comes for me when it's my time.

My beautiful grandma died on December 9, 2004. Her heart stopped while she was cradled on my arm. Two nights before she died she was so afraid. I asked her what was wrong... I would watch her at night and my mom would watch her during the day. This night she kept seeing people. She was saying her dead husband that died in the late 70's was sitting at the kitchen table. We could see from her hospital bed the kitchen and nobody was there then she was terrified because she saw another ex husband, this one from the 90's. Just she and I were there. The next night I was watching her and she was laughing and laying on her bed. I just watched because I didn't want to interrupt how happy she was. And she was looking towards the ceiling she kept laughing. After about 10 minutes I asked her, " Grandma, what are u laughing about?" Still looking up toward the ceiling she smiles and point and said, Shirley. " Shirley was my grandma's second daughter who passed away in 1995. Nine years before my grandma. My grandma had 6 children but lost 3 before she died. The next morning my grandma passed in my arms. I was cradling her in arms and was telling her in her ear that we ALL love her. To go home to God. My mom is a nurse and would check her heartbeat. I just kept telling her how much we love her and finally her heart stopped. It was so peaceful. I cherish that memory even though I miss her so much. ❤

I'm a CNA and have seen my share of people dying, i remember this one man, who was like in a coma, and been that way for a couple of weeks, the family was told by the nurse to gather the family as he does not have much time. A few days later he had a few family members around his bed, including me, He sat up, which actually scared a couple of the family members as he'd been in a coma state for sometime now. He sat up and told everyone that he was going home, and not to worry, and said goodbye to everyone. He laid back down, and a few hrs later, he passed. This is amazing. They do see family and friends. There is another life after here, you dont die, just your body is no longer needed. Just like a coat, when you get home, you take it off. I love all these hospice stories. Thank you, Nurse Julie😊

Yes, my Daddy had not spoken for days. On the day before he died, he all of a sudden pulled himself forward and loudly exclaimed, “Pull me up! me UP” as his arms reached upward and he looked at the ceiling corner. It was amazing. He laid back down and didn’t speak again. We want to believe he was seeing glimpses of Heaven because we are ASSURED that Heaven is where he is. What a wonderful man, husband and daddy he was. We greatly miss him but know one day we will have a grand reunion. Praise God!

In 2018 when my mom died, at home in her bedroom under hospice care, I sat with her holding her hand awaiting for her to pass.
It was on a Saturday afternoon and we knew she would go that day as her pulse was so very weak. She had been comatose for a day and a half. I prayed aloud and spoke to her and told her it was ok to go, as all of the plans were taken care of for her funeral, and I gave her permission to leave us and go to heaven for all of her work on earth had been accomplished. I told her I loved her, and her family who had all gone before her were waiting for her in heaven. At that moment my mother opened her eyes and with the blank stare, gazed up and looked at the right corner of the room. I new that she had just seen the individual who had come to take her home to heaven. I watched her eyes slowly move to the crucifix that was hanging on the wall facing her bed and then back to the corner of the room again. She closed her eyes, and as I was holding her hand she took her last breath and passed away. My wish in life was that my mother would have a peaceful death and I would be holding her hand when she took her last breath.

Within the last 45 minutes of my father passing, ge reahed up towards the ceiling twice. I intuitively thought he might be reaching for his mother who came to take him home. Knowing this has helped me in my grieving. Thank you.

My grandfather died of lung cancer. He was in his death agony at home. My grandma, father, mother, uncle and aunt were there with him and they all said they heard people calling his name in the room. Right before he died he looked up and smiled and reached his arm up. After they took his body out of the house, my grandma pulled out a video my grandpa made for everyone to watch after he passed. He had a beautiful message for each one in the family. As soon as he blew a kiss at the end of the video, all the power went out in the house and then came back on.

I was an CCRN for 30yrs, just retired. I have seen the "death reach" &/or " death stare" in just about all patients that have passed. They tell me their family is all around them, you can tell they are comforted by this. I am not fearful of death because I know there is a transformation when we leave our bodies to be with all the other spirits in Heaven. It made me realize that Jesus & God are very Real.❤Love your videos

I’m a 51 year CNA… I’ve been honored to be with around 75 people at their death! The ONLY person I witnessed reaching out with was my Dad🥰. Unconscious for 4 days/ and at the last breath, he raised his entire arm off the bed, opened his eyes and took in that last breath as if seeing something or someone too amazing for words! What a gift it was to my Mother and 2 sisters! We watched him go !!! ❤

[bevconklin]

My grandmother did that & I asked her what she was looking at (she had a small grin)… she waved her arm infront of her (in the air) and said “just everything”. For some reason I felt she was at the store (like Joslins, or somewhere in a mall from the 70s). But, only she knew. It made me smile. We lost he that next night-after 27 yrs, I still get those unexpected breakdowns. She would of loved my granddaughter!!!!

[anitalarry]

When my grandmother was dying of Cancer she looked at the foot of her bed and spoke to her sister that had passed and she then looked down to a child's height and said oh Kate you brought Dee I haven't seen him for a long long time. Dee was a brother that was 10 years old when he died and my grandmother was 17 when he died of Scarlet Fever. My grandmother was 81 when she passed

[telecomex]

I say this with a heavy heart, but before he died in hospital, my dad reached out with both arms extended, which i thought was maybe his desire to get up. However my mother said; "No son, I think he is seeing something we can't see." He died shortly thereafter. Thank you for this video. I was not aware that others have experienced the same thing. Peace and hugs and love and light and tears from the west coast of Canada. ss

I was with my Mother when she passed. She had been in a coma for over 12 hours and hadn't moved. She lifted her arm and reached toward the ceiling and then took her last breath. I've always felt in my heart that my Nannies hand was reaching down to her to take her to the other side ❤️

[iamcaptain]

My dad was unconscious the last four or five days before he passed. I was sitting near his bed when he opened his eyes, wide open, and looked up at the ceiling. His mouth opened and his eyes were looking at something. He looked amazed at what he was seeing. He then looked at me, closed his eyes and passed two days later. I'll never forget the feeling I had. Thank you Julie for your comforting videos.

[trudyramgren]

I haven't seen anything like this before but about a week before my aunt passed, she told me there were two people standing at her door. I had asked who she thought it was and she said " I don't know. We had to clue she was dying. She was in a nursing home and seemed pretty good. Talking and coherent. My sister and I visited her one day and she said " you can go now". something she wouldn't never say. We said our goodbyes and no sooner we got home, we got a call that she had passed. This was so bizarre to me.

[satos]

My mother did this just before she passed. She was calling out for her own mother to come and get her I might add that prior to this mom was in an unconscious state and not verbally communative in the last half week of her life. RIP mom.

I'm a retired long term care nurse. Over my 35+ years I've seen these things dozens of times, maybe a hundred or more, even with some of my own family . This is what I believe. I think at the end of life the veil between this life and the next becomes very thin. For some people the Lord will allow some people to see through the veil and allow them to actually see and speak with other family and or friends who have passed to the other side in order to give them comfort about their own impending death. I can't support this Biblically or scientifically, but it's what I believe. When my father in law was on his death bed he was talking to his deceased wife about what he wanted for supper. Later when we left to go eat we told him we'd be back later on to see him. He said not to bother, he wouldn't be there. We just brushed it off, but shortly after getting home the phone rang, it was the hospital, and he had passed away. I believe the people are seeing and talking with the people we can't see.
