July 8, 2025


 

As death approaches, the person becomes quieter and less interested in physical surroundings. He/she may become withdrawn, less sociable and also be confused about time and place.

Vision like experiences may occur. The person may see or speak to people and places not visible to you. Try not to explain away what the person is saying. Be supportive by listening to the person.

The person dying may be going through different emotional states such as guilt, anger frustration, helplessness or sadness. Tears are a natural expression of one's feelings and may occur in both the person and his/her family.

SPIRITUAL NEEDS:

People vary greatly in their spiritual and religious beliefs and needs. During this time a member of the clergy or chaplain can provide support to both the dying person and the family.

It may be helpful for you to attend to your own religious needs at this time.
