1. You are a piece of work.

2. I’m sure mom is so proud of you.

3. Why record this?

4. I don’t need you to see my beautiful end part of life for your education. Thanks

5. Thank you. I look after my Nanny who is 92, and I need to know the signs. I want to be there beside her when she passes. I don’t want her to be alone. I want to hold her, and know when it is time to bring in Palliative care. Incase she needs medication, or anything really. Thank you for sharing, it’s very sad, I’m so happy she was comfortable, my nanny says twice a man, once a child. Yes she does look like a sleeping baby. This helps me so very much. Just the way you describe death, it helps me understand and feel more comfortable about when it’s her time. She always says when my time is up my time is up. I have seen her getting weaker and it’s been hard. I won’t lie, no one wants to loose their loved ones, but I know she will be going to be with her family again, and I will see her again, when it’s my time. 🙏🏽💖💫

6. My families eyes are wide open. Why is that and it looks like they’re suffering but they say they’re not but how do we know for sure❤?

7. I couldn't do that to my family member, I mean why?? I get it that this is for educational purposes only, but why tho?

8. My beautiful dad was bed bound at home where me and my brother were caring for him. He wasn’t showing any signs of dying, the day before he had been watching tv and chatting away. I had to go to work for a couple of hours and my brother was on his way over. When I went to say, I won’t be long and Rob’s on his way, dad was intently looking into the corner of the room with a big smile on his face, I had to say “dad” a couple of times before he looked at me, when he did his eyes looked glazed over and couldn’t seem to directly focus on me. I asked him if he was ok and he nearly laughed and said “yes I’m fine” then turned straight back to the corner and grinned from ear to ear. I phoned my brother, he came straight away and he was still doing this when I left. Two hours later, my brother phoned and said “he’s gone”. My dad was afraid of dying, my mum had died just 4 months before and he went down hill from that day, I can’t tell you how much comfort it has brought me, seeing how happy he was that day, not afraid at all. Whatever he saw was joyous to him, I was going to ask him when I got home, but never got the chance. I 100% believe that someone he loved deeply came for him that day and i’m so glad I experienced it. I know now that I’ll see everybody again one day❤

9. I think the reason people feel like it’s a violation is because regardless of the spin you put on it, for some of us, it’s an extremely traumatic experience. I’m talking about being a caretaker for a loved one that you are not ready to lose. There’s nothing beautiful about it for me probably because I can’t process the trauma right now. It’s one of the most horrific experiences I’ve ever been through. I’ve never felt as desperate and helpless and scared as I felt during that time. I’m still desperately pretending I’m a failure for not being able to keep them alive or comfortable because it’s easier to pretend I had control than it is to realize I didn’t and that everything and everyone I love can always be ripped away from me at any moment in ways that I have absolutely no control over. It’s terrifying to realize that I live in a world where it’s possible for the worst things imaginable to happen to me and for me to have absolutely no way of stopping it. It’s like being tied to a rock sinking to the bottom of a lake and realizing that no matter how determined you are, no matter how motivated or convicted you are to not suffer an agonizing and violating and traumatic death, there is nothing you can do.

   It’s utterly terrifying to be reminded of that. I think that’s why people react so strongly. And I think that’s why I can’t see this as a beautiful process. I can only see it as violating and traumatic.

   I don’t think it necessarily violates people’s dignity in principle unless you know they would think it did and they didn’t want people to see them or remember them that way.

   I think we should have control over death. I think we should do everything we can to end aging and disease. We should solve healthcare basically. And I think we should be able to decide how and when we die. Death will continue to be grotesque, traumatic, violating, and terrifying to me until we are able to get there as a species. I want to be able to protect my loved ones and my community and my autonomy over my body.

   Perhaps as I get older, my relationship to death will become more peaceful, but right now, if death and suffering was a person, I’d tie it down to a chair, get a baseball bat and just keep beating it over and over and over again until I physically couldn’t stand and collapsed of exhaustion, and then when I recovered, I’d keep beating it.

10. Let’s be real people doing it for likes

11. People will watch violent and horror movies etc. with no problem and yet find this offensive.

12. I have ALWAYS allowed students to come in while I was giving birth. I should make a will allowing students to watch me die but I don't want to donate myself to research unless its something I agree with. I wouldn't mind going to the Body Farm. I think its in tennessee. I would never donate organs unless its to a specific person.

13. My dad passed away Thursday from Cancer I was by his side it was so hard was he in pain ? I know he had pain relief etc just seeing him pass that way was so tough.

14. THANKYOU. Most people are terrified of death simply because it's the unknown and because they've never had an opportunity to know anything at all about it.
    What a wonderful lady – what an incredible gift.💜 ❤

15. My mother passed away on September 24 2024. Please pray for her maghfirat.🙏😭

16. Y la persona, cuando está en esos últimos segundos, siente dolor?

17. Julie. thank you for show this. it's a real part of life. everyday life. here in America we need to grow up and accept this. STOP being so afraid of life and death. because when it's your turn. you can't run and hide from it. EVERYONE will do it.

18. CAnt hear anything because the guy won’t shut up

19. Thank you Nurse Julie! You are helping me overcome my necrophobia! Death is natural and I don't want to fear it. ❤

20. I dont wanna die in bed.

21. My grandpa was like this last time I held his hand.

    Mom and I went to hospital to visit him, she warned me he wasn’t feeling good. I didn’t even have the chance to visit him properly, he got sick so quickly all of a sudden.

    He did have alzheimer’s and dementia for the final few years of his life. He would often forget my name or who I was so I would have to remind him and give him a few moments before he would remember.

    In hospital it was like he was in his sleep, eyes closed, he was mumbling and I held his hand and told him it’s me. He was asleep the whole time we were there, but I had a feeling that he knew that we were there. I remember telling him: “Grandpa, it’s me, it’s me” and few moments after he started saying my name and his hand started shaking and gripping my hand.

    After all years of dementia and alzheimer, for him to remember me just by listening to me and holding my hand I was so happy that in his last moments, with whatever was going through his mind, he knew that he wasn’t alone and he gave me his last goodbye 7 years ago.

    I miss you dido. ❤

22. Rip gramps

23. I disagree with you wholeheartedly. The dying person isn't exactly being given a choice about you recording them. Nothing beautiful about death and losing someone either. Shame on you

24. Well tho aren't new to us lost lot family members lost my husband two years ago due to a stroke

25. I cant hear any breathing sounds. The ladys voice is so loud.
    But thank you for bringing awareness and normalcy to this. Fear comes from the unknown and things we dont understand can make us think things about them that arent realistic. But they are nornal. Part of life.

26. Isn’t it shameful that you show an actively dying person and discuss death and end of life moments of people with such a cheerful smiles, poping pink lips , perfect hairdo…. ( not what a nurse should look). It’s just disgusting and doesn’t sit together…..

27. Dad was a n death rattle for almost 72 hours. Blessed we had him,yea,but more blesed to see what we go through at the end

28. I’m currently sitting with my mom at 2 am watching her start to make these noises and although I’ve been educating myself and mentally preparing myself , I have to admit I feel terrified . Thank you for shedding the light on this normal/natural phase of transition back to spirit. I will be relieved when this part is over and my sweet mom is at peace and free from her long battle with Lewy Body Dementia and Parkinson’s. Again, your videos have helped me SO much while I face a difficult goodbye!! God bless you and the work you do… you truly are an Earth angel ❤

29. Very true. This is part of life. I know its sad but we must be happy for those leaving us. Especially when they suffered. 😢😢😢😢

30. Guys. Death rattle is caused when your body is sooo relaxed that the saliva builds up causing that sound. She is relaxed, not in pain.

31. Thanks for your videos you right this is not for entertainment but my wife’s mom is in the hospital at this moment and she is going thru some of these steps and this is how I come across your videos looking up what’s next I was in Iraq and that is different signs than these that the Lord is calling home and I will admit it is hard to watch my wife think she will get better and walk home like a normal Dr visit it has happened so fast in a way it has been three four weeks yesterday her mom talked about a girl comes and walks around her room she said she has seen her before today she is losing blood pressure and got put on the last meds can’t spell what it is but I’m sure you know what it is. Thanks again for your videos they have helped me no matter what anyone else thinks and I don’t see any disrespect just the cycle of life which is very different than bleeding out on the battle field you will always remember the screaming so don’t let them few discourage you with keyboard captain knowledge they talk just to talk even if they don’t know what they saying is the truth or not. May God bless you lady and give you strength for this job

32. You have an obsession with death and it's disgusting for people who have experienced this to relive the memories

33. Bles you

34. This a good video she's actually breathing in a nice way but I 100 percent agree people should be more prepared and exposed to how someone may pass what normal what's not normal and just be better prepared when breathing slows and theres the final gurgle and I think people would feel more comfortable with and beside their loved ones instead of in shock

35. I lost my mother at age 81, it was a beautiful experience. My siblings, and grandchildren were there. It was interesting cause my mom’s fingers and toes had gotten cold. The brain stays warm the longest.

36. Also here to say thankyou.
