I've never experienced any thing similar, so I don't believe it, but it's not something I'd dismiss.
And as has been said, put aside the emotions attached, some of this thread is clearly bullshit.
Timmmahhh, i like you am as sceptical as they come. I am also sorry for the longish post but.................................
My brother lost his daughter in 1993 to cancer a month after her 6th birthday. The night she died, we were in the living room, and her mum came downstairs crying and said that she was gibbering and acting really weird again. My brother went upstairs to her bedroom and she was absolutley fine of mind. (the worst of it was that unless you knew, she was nearing the end you'd have thought she had a cold or something)
My brother didn't say anything else on the matter and just carried on supporting her. Three nights later in the middle of the night, she drifted off to sleep, and her beautifull blue eyes would never open again. The night before her funeral, we sat alone with her and spoke, till the morning. He seemed quite calm and i asked him if he was going to be strong enough for what was coming up that morning
He told me that the gibbering and waving, that my neice had been doing was telling her friend to "get down off the window", She had been talking to her friend who came to see her in her room at times, not long before she passed.
Unfortunatley, her friend who was also six, died a month before of a similar illness, the striking thing is this: My brother was in the room with his mate, when the undertaker closed the lid, just before her friends mum put a yellow ribbon on her hair to match the colour of the dress she wa wearing, as it had been her favourite when she was alive.
My neice described not only the dress," but the ribbon was beautifull". She could have NEVER EVER known about the ribbon. So we can't blame morphine, a state of mind or deep thought.
Once again sorry for the long 'deep' post.
