RE: Moment of Death

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

My mother died quite unexpectedly of a stroke back in April, so I can really identify with Kubler-Ross' words. Her body was kept alive until I could get there to be with my father and sisters, but we all believe that her spirit had passed long. before her official time of death.

I'm familiar with the writings of Kubler-Ross because I actually took an elective class in high school called Thanatology. All we did for a quarter was discuss death. We took a field trip to a cemetery.

I'm currently looking into pre-paid cremation by the Neptune Society for my wife and I, so there will be no questions as to our final wishes when we die.

Hi Jon. I am sorry to hear of your loss.
My sister-in-law passed away in late April of lung Cancer. Thankfully, she didn't suffer for too long.
Interesting that you should have an interest in Thanatology at that age. So, you are not adverse to talking about death then.
Good that you are making arrangement for that day which will surely come. I should start making arrangements too, but somehow there is something else more 'important' to do, and the days just fly by.
Thank you for sharing.
Cheers!

Thanks, Vincent. Sorry to hear about your sister-in-law. I hope that when I die I go peacefully, in my sleep, like my grandfather. Not panicking and screaming like the passengers in the car he was driving at the time :-D
