When Death is near

Every death is individual, just as we are all different in life. There are a few common changes that happen. Knowing what these changes are and how to manage them may be helpful.
It is usual and normal for people to experience these changes when death is near:
More tiredness and sleeping more
Eating and drinking less
Less passing urine and faeces
Being more drowsy and less alert
There is no need to be worried or concerned about these changes as they are part of the usual process of preparing for death.
Eating and drinking - If the person who is dying does not ask for food or drink or declines them there is no need to worry or try to force them to eat or drink
Mouth care - The person who is dying might not feel thirsty but their mouth can become dry and this can feel uncomfortable. You can help keep their mouth moist by giving them ice chips to suck or using a moistened swab [demonstrate use of swab]
Breathing - Sometimes people can have very noisy breathing; this breathing can sound very alarming but the person who is dying is not usually distressed by it. There is medication that can reduce this sound.
Pain and agitation - There is medication that can reduce these symptoms
Confusion - The person who is dying may be a bit confused. There is medication that can assist with this. You can also assist by telling them where they are and that they are being looked after. Confusion may be lessened by playing music that the person likes and having family members (familiar faces) around (especially if the person is in an unfamiliar environment such as the hospital).
Changing position - An air bed or a hospital bed and air mattress can be provided to help the person who is dying to feel comfortable in bed and to help you help them to change position every few hours.
A person can be close to death but not yet passed away for days or sometimes weeks. Sometimes a person can move close to death but then recover again; they may move in and out of this stage.
Even if a person wants to die at home, sometimes the final stages can be too much; it can be overwhelming. It is okay to call for help and ask for the person to be admitted to the local hospital. There are palliative care rooms available at Ararat, Maryborough, Willaura, Stawell, St Arnaud, and Beaufort. These rooms provide some privacy and opportunity for you to be with the dying person and nursing staff are available to assist you in caring. There may be the opportunity for a carer to sleep overnight at the hospital with the person who is dying - if this is what you would like to do, ask the staff about this option.

I work as a home care aid, specifically memory care. I tell people the hardest part of my job has always been sitting in a chair. I used to put a rocking chair in my residents room if I knew the time was near. If family wasn't in the room, for any reason, I would sit in that chair and keep watch over them. I prayed the Rosary for two of my residents who were Catholic just hours before they passed, holding their hands until the end, and another I remember reading to her some of her favorite poems before she passed, all while sitting in that chair. I recently quit a job and took a decrease in pay to return to what I feel is something I do best, and that's providing the elderly with the care they deserve before leaving us. It is at times mentally and physically draining, but it is the most rewarding position I have ever had and wouldn't change my experiences for anything.

[@AmalsPlace]

Not many can take on this kind of role. Thank you for what you do ❤❤❤

[@adelerodriguez2432]

[@karen6187]

When my parents passed they had told us that they wanted to die at home, so that's what we did. I just wanted to comment on how compassionate this man in this video is. Palliative care is the best way to go if you're going to be dying at home especially. The care that each of my parents received from Hospice when it was their time to go was immeasurable to my sister and I. We didn't know what to do but they are trained to deal with and instruct the caregiver/s on what takes place and what the options are all along the way. Hospice and Palliative care workers are like angels on earth that are here to help the living (of the dying person) as well as the one passing on. This is a very honest and spot on explanation that this gentleman has given here. Thank you for sharing this. It's never going to be easy for any of us to see our loved ones slip away, but it sure is comforting knowing that there are people like this to help people like us through the process as best we can. Blessings to anyone who is experiencing this now, or knows they are going to be. Peace and love to all.

I sat with my mom the last 48 hrs of her life. She died at home while Christmas music played. I just talked to her and held her hand. When then end neared and she seemed to be struggling I told her that it was okay to let go. She then quietly slipped away. :(

Did the same thing with my mother. They were playing Christmas tunes on the radio station 24/7 and now hearing the Charlie Brown and Bing Crosby Christmas songs on the radio brings me back to that night. However the interesting part is that my mother suffered several strokes and lost the ability to talk and her legs atrophied and for the last week of her life she was basically asleep. About 1 hour before she died, she suddenly woke up and her legs straightened out, she opened her eyes widely and was staring at the wall. She began to look at my sister and I then back at the wall repeatedly as a smile formed on her face and her eyebrows raised while she smiled and laughed a couple of times. She would look back at my sister and I while trying to speak and gesture towards the wall. My sister and I smiled and told her that the old friends and relatives that she was looking at could only be seen by her as it was not our time yet. We told her that they were here to take her to the other side. Her breathing then slowed and she passed away still smiling. That was the best send off that we ever thought possible.

[@lindabarker2175]

Losing someone is never easy, it's soul destroying to watch your loved one suffering, I lost my farther three years ago to cancer and he was riddled with it, so I understand what your going through, They never leave you as such, They are always with you, They have just stepped out of the room for a bit, I believe in the afterlife, you will be together when it's your turn, Thinking of you, xx

[@tracylangsley4064]

My husband of 28 years died on may 5th this year (it was his funeral yesterday) he had Parkinson's and dementia and starved himself for 2 weeks prior as he had given in due to being in care and not wanting to be there. He also developed bronchial pneumonia from the Wednesday to the Saturday morning when he died I watched and listened to him trying to cough the stuff off his chest. We were told his GCS was 8 (should be 15) and that although he wasn't asleep he wasn't fully awake but we were told he could hear us. It was the most horrific thing I've ever watched in my life and still think it's not a painless death (anyone with a chest infection whose healthy know how painful it can be) my kids and me left the hospital on the Friday and I told him I would be back in the morning on my own without our grown up kids. I got there at 9.40am and was told it wouldn't be long now (after only being told 3 days earlier it could be hours, days or weeks) his chest was nowhere near as ruttlie and his eyes were open for the first time in days. We were told we would know when he was going as they said his breathing would just gradually slow then stop. I thought it would be a gradual over time thing so my kids would have time to get up there to the hospital at 9.46 I told him "well we never got our rocking chairs on the patio in our dotage" (long running joke) then got to say AnF (we wrote this on all our cards for 28 year) the next thing I knew at 9.50am just after I'd said that, he sort of took a deep breath then held it (didn't notice any gradual slowing of his breathing) it was obvious this was it so I screamed help he's gone. A nurse came in n said not quite but if you need to say anything, say it now. I said I already have, he's gone now hasn't he? She said sadly he has passed. I'd had a feeling he was waiting for the kids not to be there n waited for me to be on my own til I said AnF

[@tracylangsley4064]

(Continued) Then he just held his breath and went like he wanted me on my own. He looked so peaceful at the end I just hope he heard me say AnF I couldn't get over how clear his breathing sounded I wouldn't have him back to go back to that live I'm gonna miss him even tho he had been in care for 2 n a half years. But he's free now n suffering no more I never want to witness that again he was only 68 but his body and mind gave up I'd love to know for sure if he knew he was close to dying but I'm pleased I was with him at the end n he didn't linger. My heart goes out to everyone in the same situation God bless you all

Losing someone you love is the hardest position to be put in ! I was with and took care of both of my parents at the end of their lives ! They both past from colon cancer! My Mother was not only my Mother but my best friend she passed 2 days before Christmas it was devastating for me in March I was hospitalized because I thought I had a stroke but the doctor said from the stress of everything my body just shut down! Then years later my Father was also diagnosed with colon cancer he passed in three months the things that happened were amazing! My Father was with my Mom and he talked about people who were passed for a long time that were there with him and the next day the day he passed his Hospice Nurse Angel got him to open his beautiful blue eyes and I held his hand and said Daddy it's time to go walk with your Angel's and he took his last breath ! Hold their hands tell them you love them hug them gently let them know your there with them!

[@cynthiahawkins2389]

We were refused help of any kind from Medicaid, and were also told (in error) that our 92 year old mother had Alzheimer's. She actually had mixed senile dementia, and because we could not put her in a funded nursing home, we chose to bring her to live with my sister. Although it was the only thing we COULD do at the time, under the circumstances, it turned out to be the jewel in our crown - all of us, including our mother were enormously blest. We cared for her, day in, year out. She lived with my sister from 2014-2017. All of us shared in the caregiving. She was fed, bathed, cleanly dressed and diapered, socially engaged, respected, kept safe, hugged, groomed, companioned by our dog and cat, sung and read to, and conversed with every chance we got. Home care of course, is not an option for every family. And, it takes courage. Something many families simply do not possess, sorry to say. But is is something more families should consider. We were well informed on what to expect, and we followed everything, step by step. Mother died peacefully, at 95, in her sleep. My sister had looked in and changed her diaper, and turned her on her side, propping her with clean pillows, and then sat back in her chair to get a quick nap. Mother had received Final Anointing from a Jesuit father (she was Catholic all her life). And went Home peacefully, and gently, an hour or so after...as my sister dozed in the chair. The police and medical people remarked how clean everything was, the beautiful condition of her remains, and the way her room was had such a calm, gentle environment. I would not have missed caring for our mother for anything. It transformed our lives forever. My sister totally agrees. Our mother after all brought us INTO the world. It was only right, that we witness, and care for her, and help her to LEAVE it.

[@jnwd1723]

Cynthia Hawkins Dear Cynthia, first let me express my condolences to your family losing your loved one. I know how bad it feels when someone you love dies. I really admire what a great family you are. I wish more families treated their sickly family member at home, if possible. That's pure respect and love you showed instead of how some families feel like their very ill family member isn't worth being taken care of surrounded by her family. I can't stand families just dumping them in.nursing homes because they don't want to deal with it. Too inconvenient. I know certain families are brought up to honor their parents. After all it was their parents who took care of them. If I wasn't so disabled or sick myself I would want my family member to be where they wanted to be. Whatever made them comfortable. I'd wait on them hand and foot and do whatever was necessary to assure them it that I was happy to help in. Because that's always been my nature. I think it's more beneficial they stay in familiar soundings. Nursing home life very depressing. I just have strong feelings about its the family members who should take care of them instead of the people who run these nursing homes that really don't have a passion to help people or make them feel like they're a burden. I'm glad you all did the right thing. That's the epitome of what love means and does. Other cultures would never dream of discarding their parents away in a facility which sounds so cold and .unfeeling. Even if home health care could be called its still better than feeling shoved off. Much kudos for being a loving family!

[@TheMariemarie16]

Very true. This has brought tears to my eyes. Our family is doing the same for my 88 year old grandma. She has been home with us for 3 years before that we had moved her next door to us. She had Alzheimer's and then fell likely due to confusion then had stroke which paralyzed her. Now 3 years after stroke she is dying due to respiratory issues. The entire family had to get involved come together. She is still at home with us under hospice care.

​@@jnwd1723 If I had had a bigger home I would've taken my father in. But, he needed care 24/7. He had lived by himself and went into the nursing home when he fell at home for the final time. My brother researched nursing homes and got him into a decent one. They were very good to the residents.

My grandmother is 91. Everyone close to her already passed. Her husband, mother, father, sisters.. etc. it’s really sad... she’s getting close to death, and we know it. She sleeps many hours per day. She doesn’t want to eat much anymore. She used to be able to do it all. My mother adopted me at an older age than most, so I never really saw my grandmother as a younger woman. I’m 13. She’s basically raised me with my mother, since she’s a single mother. She brought me to school for numerous years.. she’s never admitted her age until now. It hurts, it bothers me.. but it’s life..

This is really important for the people dealing with this rough situation.

Ask for help and you will meet some amazing people.

brilliant explanation

[@stormlecat6421]

Why is everyone saying I deserved my husband to die in front of me cause I fell in love with an older guy, well steve saved me if it wasn't for him I'd be dead. I was in care most if my life and when I left the care system, I went into hostels and took drugs, when I met my husband i was at my lowest point and he saved me and gave me a loving life which I was lacking in, yes he was older but he worked all his life and how is it fair he died before getting any type of retirement, nobody deserves to die young half way through life, so no I didn't expect him to die young, I thought maybe 70s. I'm just glad I kept him at home and didn't abandon him, took care of him right to the end even though he died at 11pm I couldn't bear for them to take him away so I just cried then fell asleep cuddling him

Fr Louie Goad What makes you think that God is real?

[@gvet47]

I live alone snd my palliative nurse is only by video call. I assume nobody will know what happens when I die. Might be easier to take all my pain meds.

I am crying and thinking how my dad would die. He is suffering from cancer but healthy right now but how am I going to watch him when the last hour arrives. I've never been close to my mom but dad was always special. He helped me more than any dad in the world would help his child but I on the other hand could not make him proud, not even once. I was always his head ache 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@osbaldoledesma5239]

[@Dllld02842]

Enjoy your time with him. He’ll die knowing you loved him and that’s all that matters. He might not be here when he is gone but he will be in your heart for the rest of your life

[@adelerodriguez2432]

Spend as much time with him as you can. Address the issues and ask him to forgive you.

[@jonathangoodwin457]

Death is not to be feared or if you are Christian except Jesus Christ as your personal savior. To get to heaven you must have faith in God alone is not religion and that's manmade 2nd say I'm a sinner or are we paint of all my sins . Tell Jesus and I know you died from a sins accept you as my personal savior so your sense of forgiving past present future so I'm being given assurance then I'm going to heaven I'm not scared to die a few piece of

[@Dllld02842]

Don’t fear death. It is the most amazing experience and will not hurt at all

[@kingofallmediums2123]

When is the next bus? 😂

[@chickerinoradio6617]

so death isnt painful usually?

[@San47di]

it depends on 'what' they are dying from. Some Cancers are and can be painful based on where located and organs affected, and the pain medications provided are Very addictive, and after a while become ineffective.

[@ajimenez1719ify]

San47di usually, by the point that they have developed a tolerance to pain medication, the dose is increased to whatever level that is needed to kill pain. Terminally ill patients are not worried about overdose. My grandma died of cancer, and her doctor told us to give her however much she wanted, and to not hesitate. He also said not to worry about overdose bc it wasnt possible in her situation.

[@San47di]

Andrea Jimenez Sorry, but what the doctor was really telling you is that no one could be "formally charged" with administering an overdose, because you were given legal certified medical permission to administer it. But that's Exactly what your grandma died from was the painkiller (Not the cancer) that shut down her vital organs. Oh, the doctor will identify the cancer on her Official Death Record; but she was O.D.'ed on pain meds.

[@ajimenez1719ify]

San47di So, you can say, without a doubt, that my grandma died of an opiate overdose? I would like to put that to the test, so if you would, just let me know.......you are absolutely sure about that? I have seen MANY drug overdoses, and there are things that happen during an overdose, that will not happen during a cancer related death. Of course, the dieing process inevitably has the same outcome, and of course the body shuts down, but it's not in the same manner, if you will. Anyway, just let me know on that first question, what your answer is bc like i said, i would like to put your answer to the test, to see if you are, indeed, correct.

[@angelfirelite]

That is very true... a friend of mine had dementia and it got worst. They sent her to the Hospice place and basically, it is the legal way to let you die.... on the opiates. You then, leave this world easily!

My mother had palliative care at the end of her life. To the staff it's just a process to the family it's shocking. Here's why Mum died alone of a heart attack. She could have done that at home. As a culture we put our dying away to die; where we should care for our love ones personally. Clinically is how palliative works they don't get attached and aren't the best people for the job. As I said my mum died of a heart attack not her kidneys slowly failing, this is; I believe because of the clinical administration of morphine which her heart couldn't take. So we did not get our chance to care for her as she slipped into the next place. No phone call no it might be soon call. Nothing. Palliative care is for scared children who don't want the responsibility of escorting a loved one to their death. They dread the work. Like my sisters who over ruled my wishes for mum to die at home amongst her dogs and ornaments and friendly neighbours, with her choice of...well anything. Instead she got a clinical bed with a TV tray for dinner in a small white room with no view. She told my sister she wanted to go home and my sister just said she was a broken record. Let your love ones know you support their every wish I offered to get mum anything she wanted from marijuana through to ciggies. I asked if that would shorten her life but the doctor told me that when you are facing the firing squad a cigarette isn't going to hurt. This is why you should care for your loved ones in the privacy of your own home. I can honestly say that palliative care is for scared little children. Let the last days be amongst the best days. At least the last words to my mum were I love you.

[@kmac6118]

shut the fuck up

[@michealhatfield6979]

That simply is not true. I worked palliative care and everyone is different. You get attached to the people and it's extremely sad to see them go. I am currently sitting with someone now who is transitioning, I sing to her, read the bible, talk to her, rub her hair. She never had any kids, she was unable. You are so self-centered to think that EVERYONE's situation is just like yours. Unfortunately, not everyone can stop living life and paying bills just because someone is sick, it's called life. So please, shut your ignorance up!

[@julieverma1865]

Some time it about making a doctor to do there huge it about find away to save there life

[@abbyanderson4171]

Why doesn't God save them?

[@livelongandprosper70]

because god does not exist .

[@graceh3362]

abby Anderson Well honestly I can’t really give you and answer because I am not God but I will try to tell you what I think. Imagine being sick 24/7 it’s painful,sad, and depressing. They are ready to die and no longer be in pain. So when they die they are no longer in pain and that’s what God wants. For us not to be in pain. If he kept them on earth they would be living each day in pain. By dying they are at rest and no longer in pain. Hope this makes sense

[@moranplano]

Save them for what purpose...so they can experience more old age, sickness and pain? Death is actually the great healer. Once one crosses over the old become young, the deaf hear, the crippled walk, the blind see, the oppressed are free. You should see people on the other side when they're told.."It's time to go back (reincarnate) for more growth." They get so depressed..."I don't want to back, I like it here." Trust me, the other side is so much better than this one, unless you've been an evil person, then it's a lot worse...but only temporarily so. Once the negative traits are purged the person gets another chance to get it right. They are very grateful. Blessings...

[@austinhenning4935]

Why should he?

[@cinqo7]

save them? yes He is. He's not a short time planner, He is saving them forever in Heaven.

[@TheElizabethashby]

TELL HIM OE HER ABOUT GOD JESUS WHO CREATED US ALL AND THEY CAN ASK GOD JESUS TO COME INTO HIS LIFE AND BE FORGIVEN AND HAVE EVER LASTING LIFE IF YOU BELIEVE IN GOD JESUS HE SAVES MAN CANNOT

[@plj9092]

Not everyone believes in god so unless you know your loved one's beliefs, it can actually be disturbing. If it's in order to comfort you as you watch them pass, and you know they are secular, you are best to not discuss your own belief system.

[@kingofallmediums2123]
