Question:
RECENTLY AN ELDERLY PERSON PASSED FROM CANCER. BUT JUST BEFORE THE TIME OF DEATH. THER WAS NO HEART BEAT. NO BREATHS, SHE SAT UP IN THE BED. EYES WIDE OPEN (UNRESPONSIVE) HOLLERED HELP ME, HELP ME, ALSO MOUTH STAYED OPEN WITH NO MOVEMENTS AND WORDS WERE CLEAR AS A BELL BUT LOW IN TONE, BUT LOUD IN VOLUME. PLEASE RESPONDE WITH YOUR COMMENTS AND KNOWLEDGE. THANKS.

Answers:
I am not sure of the physical response to why she might have done this. I do know that from the many deaths that I am aware of many people report something that has some meaning to them. Sometimes the moments are very private and beautiful to the moms and dads who witness the passing of their child. I know one child who cried out that he could fly right before death and another who moments after passing seemed to smile. There are others who have sat up after a week of being in a coma and spred their arms wide right before passing away. Some speak, but most don't.

I do not know the meanings of these reports only that many feel comforted by them.
Wow. I really have no idea.
Haven't been there__have no idea what happens.
i have been with five family members at the time of death and four of them just went into a deep slumber a few hours before, low heartrate, shallow breathing, a couple of hours before you could start to hear the death rattle , at the time of passing they just went peacefully, eyes almost shut except for a small slit, mouth open just slightly....my great grandmother tho had been in the slumber state for about four days before the end came, and right before she passed she rolled over toward the window and opened her eyes with a very blank stare and started talking to my greatgrandfather, i have talked to a couple of hospice volunteers about this subject and they say a lot of people that are nearing death will have a very lucid moment right before no matter the state that they have been in, freaky, but kind of nice, i like to think my great grandfather was there to great my gramma
I've heard several times about this type of thing happening. So it's probably not all that uncommon.

We want to live...it's hard wired into us. And we might be a little bit scared, too. If we can just allow total latitude and accept the person's final moments in their body, that might be the best thing.

A father told me about the time when his five-year-old daughter died in his arms. She had previously had advanced cancer but ended up dying from the kidney damage she suffered from chemotherapy.

Issy''s last words were, "Mommy and Daddy, look at the beautiful birdies! Oh, they are so beautiful! No, I' m the birdie -- I'm the birdie."

Later at her funeral, the parents saw a bird alone, and then they saw that bird join a flock of birds. Even now, that story brings a tear to my eye.

Good luck and be well.

wow scary when my mom boyfriend eas dying . he had a death rattle . which means the end is near....
what beautiful words listed above. we can only hope that it is a peaceful place that we go to.
my 1st and only experience of death was my father in law. the nurse told us it was going to happen soon so we all gathered to say goodbye.. my mother in law was in his arms when he passed, yelling to him to come back to her ( he passed about 3 minutes prior) . he opened his eyes and gasped and stayed alive for about 15 more minutes.

it was an experience.

My sister was just diagnosed with pancreatic cancer... your question caught my eye before I asked mine.. She said she will give me a sign when she passes... so I will let you know what she tells me.
it is really quite simple you DIE! end of story,finito,finished.get it.
Omg that sounds horrible.
My mom died of cancer and she died rather...peacefully.
She kind of just...stopped breathing.
