    When my Dr told me I was terminal, I wold him he was too, so what. He's 75, I was 38. Said I have 12 weeks. I told him nope, I have stuff to do. That was July 2015, im still here. I'm still raising my daughter and making the most of every moment.

    My hero is my husband. He died of pancreatic cancer seven weeks ago today. He received the toughest chemo with no complaint. When it quit working, he tried another. And another. Sicker and sicker, thinner and thinner, never complained. Worried about other people up until the day he died. The most unselfish man I’ve ever known. Even wanted to forego pain meds as much as possible so he could be more alert and active. He gave me and our kids so much love, even more during those 11 months. I will love and miss him forever.

      It's also a privilege, and something to be proud of, because for so many elderly folks, they are that strong to endure what life and growing old takes, for them to get that far. We've all heard the saying, "Growing old, isn't for wimps!"

    I'm 76 years old and and have faced the perspective of death. The thought of leaving my loved ones behind was the greatest concern at the time. As I get older and my body weakens and it becomes easier to except the fact that I will die. I wake up each day and thank the Lord for blessing me with the gift of that day. I look at the world almost like a child and reveling the freedoms of enjoying so many things in this world. I'm happy with the things I have and worry less about the things I don't have. My wife and I enjoy so many things together. I worry about the trends out there and wish I could get people to hate less and to use their minds more. Stress seems to guide society today. Its hard to believe how ungrateful people can be. If I die tomorrow I will die with the knowledge that I enjoyed my time here during my lifetime and look forward to meeting the Lord in my next life.

      Dear Mort Pes, sorry to hear about that. I just lost my dad 3 weeks ago to cancer, we are unprepared for that and still in shock. I wish the medical professions had given us more honest advices, we would love to have him home instead of leaving him in the hospital, while hoping for miracles. Though he did passed peacefully with all loved one around him, but nothing can make up for the lost time. Please prepared yourself and your loved one, say goodbye to each others before it's too late. If we strived to live a beautiful life, we should also strive to make a perfect ending for it. Keep you in prayers. May you be in minimal pain and may the grace of God be with you.

      Heard that. I read the autobiography of BB King, and he lost his mom at 12 years old. He wrote the book much later in his life and had this great quote about the reason why he sings the blues is because he misses his mom, even at an advanced age. The point is that it's okay to miss your mom, and some people never 'get over it'. It's not a failing of character or a reason for shame. Carry on, as best as you can. Isn't that what your mom would want?

    I am a Christian, but several years ago I suddenly became very fearful thinking about death. I did not mention it to my husband or family or friends. A few months later I went to a ladies retreat at my church and the guest speaker prayed for several people who desired prayer. I went forward. I did not say what I wanted prayer for, but the lady started praying out loud and she said “Honey, the Lord wants you to know, the minute you stop breathing and close your eyes, you’ll be with Him”. I started to cry. But from that moment on, that fear of death left me, and it has never returned.

I wish I could come to the conclusion that everything will be okay and that death and time flying isn’t the problem. I wanna be okay with it but I’m scared. And sometimes I feel alone but I always try find a way to tell myself I’m not alone. Like reading these comments. I love life and I just wanna be better so that when I die.

    I have lost a LOT of family, starting with my parents' drownings when I was14 y/o, and MANY more due to various illnesses and conditions. But, before my late husband, (2019), I had never lived with and cared for anyone on a daily basis with terminal cancer. All throughout his illness, I was astounded at how he never complained and accepted his fate. He lived his life wide open, took chances and seemed fearless to me. He taught me a lot about how to live and he made it easier for me when my time comes. He was in Hospice the last few days of his life and he faced his death with a deep faith, strength and courage. I know my Father's Promises, so that lessens my fear.The last thing I said to him was, 'You have fought a long, hard battle, but you don't have to fight anymore. Don't worry about me. You know that I'm a strong woman and we WILL see each other again. I love you!' A few hours later he gave up the fight. I miss every single thing about him, every single day.

      @@cityslickerchickens5835, I have a message for you from your brother (ok, I am making this up, but I am sure he would agree with me). He says that he wants you to live your life to the fullest - his was cut short, but you enjoy it for both of you. He says he is in a good place, so you don't have to worry about him. He had a good laugh and was also a bit sad about the toys story. He laughed because it is what kids do... fight with your brothers and sisters, not share your toys with them, even split on them to your parents. It is just a normal part of growing up, discovering who you are and exerting your newly discovered authority. He says he would have undoubtedly done the same to you at some stage because it is just a part of being human. But he says there are no hard feelings involved. Actually, he says that he had completely forgotten about the incident until you mentioned it recently.

      Loved this! Everyone is convinced of a different faith according to their upbringing. Every death is as unique and individual as each birth. I also experienced a NDE in a 12 car pileup. I was hit & propelled four times then pronounced dead by three people I was not under any anesthesia or drugs. The one thing I felt was this joy, relief, warmth and love.
      I was still me just "super me" One thing I have faith in is soul/spirit energy. Those energies we loved who transitioned before us- Still love us. In the USA we need to teach more about death, dying and how to cope!

    If you fear death, you're fearing life. I learned this at a young age fortunately. Was terrified of death, but one day I realized I was simply just afraid of everything. My mental anguish forced me to take life head on. The only other choice was suicide, but I was too scared to do it. Once I lived with more bravery, more courage and more of an open mind, I began to see the beauty in life. All the bad stuff was still there too, but I also started seeing all the good things I was too blind to see before. I realized that it was a balance. Life was never all good or all bad, it was always a bit of both. Once I accepted that and tried to live in harmony with it, I felt a sense of peace inside me that was the most beautiful thing I had ever witnessed. I no longer feel death. Nor do I loose sleep over what happens after. I do know however, that if I live an unfulfilling life and keep wasting time into things I do not believe in because I'm too afraid to take a risk and change, then I will start fearing death. And then I will loose sleep over what happens afterwards. And if I do that too much, one day, it will be too late.
    Don't fear life. Live it. Find what you believe in. Whether it is to make others happy, or challenge yourself, and go for it. Don't waste time on pleasures like money and power. These are just drugs for the spirit. Go after what you believe in. What you REALLY BELIEVE in. If you can't explain why you want or love something, then there's your hint.

    Death probably hits me the hardest when it's late at night. I'm going to wash my hands from the bathroom, and suddenly, I just think. I go to the mirror and stare at it, and a feeling of dread overcomes me as I think, "what if tonight's the night where I go to sleep and never wake up". This happens probably atleast once a week, and I haven't found any videos that have really helped me face my fear. I talked about it with my parents nearly a year ago, and again less than a month ago, which really helps. But still, I usually let the fear build up inside of me until one night I finally come to my senses and seek help from someone, but this video has been one of the only ones that has actually helped. Thank you.

For example there's this butterfly that is not toxic to predators who would eat it. But, it's adapted wing pattern looks almost identical to another species of butterfly that _is_ toxic. Apparently, it adapted those traits to secure its survival. Then, there are certain animals (rabbits, foxes, Etc) that change their coat colors with the seasons, making them better able to blend in & survive. And the list goes on & on. There's probably millions of similar examples. But, my point is, it's interesting that on even the minutest cellular level... there are signs of intelligence. And the more you look, the more it becomes apparent that there is proof of design in all these expressions of life. Where there is proof of design, there is proof of a designer.

    As someone with severe clinical depression, as well as a whole bunch of other chronic illness's, I've thought about death for most of my life. At times suicidal. But I always had what I thought to be a "wholesome" fear of death, that prevented me from ever acting upon my suicidal thoughts. In July 2019, I came home, and found my father had passed away in his sleep (which was great solace, as it was totally unexpected, so atleast knowing he went in peace, with no suffering, or illness, was the only thing to hold on to). Then in January 2020, my service dog became sick, and within 3 weeks, I had to let him go. This was 6 months apart, and I was absolutely devastated. Then, in Nov 2020, my retired service dog passed as well. I am living with unimaginable grief right now, for perhaps the 3 most important "people" in my life, have been taken from me, all within 16 months. That being said, my fear of death, is almost none existent now. I am not religious, but I do believe in an afterlife, and the one thing that comforts me, is that when it's my time to leave this earth, and this life, that I will be reunited with my father, and my service dogs. I can only pray that when it's my time to die, that I am lucky enough to die as my father did, in his sleep, without pain, and without illness.

      I knew my father loved me so very much and I loved him If you don,t tell them how do they know sometimes gestures are just not enough .
      So very time you see your grand mother put your arms around her and say Grandma I love you so much . Im telling you because I want you to know .. Hearing this she will say the same to you but in her heart she will know such love and joy just because you told her .
      If you miss the time when she comes to die you will never ever feel bad ,because ,you can say to yourself . every time I saw grandma I told her I loved her I knew it made her happy and I promise you it will make you happy too . and it applies to all of those you love .

      Really? Are you saved? Have you felt his presence? He is here! He's in us! He is here! I am his church! He blessed me 9 days ago! I seen miracles every day for 9 days! That's his glory! He made the blind see! Now I see! I am his temple, he the cornerstone! We his church! And he is here! He is here for us! I am to gather his church! I never read the bible until my king told me to buy 2 bibles less than 2 weeks ago! Now, the bible reads me! I see its meaning! Perpetual sin of the fathers! That is how satan is passed generation to generation! Jesus is the cornerstone! I am his body and his temple! It is me! Repent! That he blessed ye in my likeness so that you can get your households in order! Our Lord is at the door! Amen! He is at the door and I am letting him in!

  • @isabellejones5151

    I was a new mother when I was told I had cancer. I was terrified and every moment of my life was consumed with fear. I felt angry, “ why me, why now?” The unfairness of it all. My son is never going to know how much he could be loved and future children I will never get to hold. I tried to memorize everything the face of my infant, husband, colors, sounds, trees, feel of water, walking barefoot in grass, the glow of the moon. I felt like I was cramming for the ultimate life test. No matter how hard I tried to recall ever second of this life I was a failure. The harder I tried to slow life down the faster the minutes past by. It was like sand through a sieve, no faster like water or wind. Later, I was given the news that I no longer had signs of cancer. I didn’t react right away. I needed to be a lone and few days later I walked into my closet to hang up some new blouses. I hadn’t bought anything for myself in awhile what was the use I’d tell myself. I began to shake uncontrollably and cry out loud. It was as if I had been holding my breath and moving through the past months hypoxic. The relief washed over me like ice cold rain. I don’t know how long I was on my knees screaming and crying in the closet in an emptying house. It must have been awhile because when I stood up I fell back into the closet. My legs had fallen asleep and the pain like millions of tiny ice crystals pulsates to the bottom of my feet. There was no use walking so I lay there half in and half out of the closet. I began to laugh at how ridiculous I must look lying on the floor tangled in clothes, hangers, shoes and stuff. My legs and feet hurt and I moved them trying to get the blood to circulate back into all the empty spaces. Although painful there was also comfort that I was still alive to feel it. I had experience a lot of pain the past months. Now, I wasn’t just experiencing it, I was feeling. I told myself, I was given a second chance and I am not going to waste it. I had been so preoccupied with fear and anger over my death that I wasn’t living. I was grieving the life that I would one day lose that I didn’t live the life I still had left. I thought to myself, fear and anger what a terrible waste of time. The only greater waste of time is hatred. I told myself that I will never waste another day paralyzed in fear, anger and certainly not hatred. I have since seen loved ones diagnosed with terminal illnesses and recognize the fear in their eyes. I wish I could take it away so that they could spend their last loving, laughing, tasting, smelling, seeing and taking this world and this life all in. I don’t know what happens after this life but I hope we will be able to take our most happiest memories.

    I miss my grandfather so much. He was the loving parent for me. My parents have worked all their lives and they hardly spent 30 minutes a day with me while i was growing up. My grandparents took care of me. My grandmother is still alive and I am so grateful for it although my grandfather passed away in 2018. For the first two years of his death, I didn't grieve at all because I didn't want to face my emotions and grief. Recently, while going through a hypnotherapy session, his memories came flooding back and since then, I cry every day because i want to hug him one last time. My relationship with my parents is still not good and there are days that go by when i don't even talk to them even though we live in the same house. I just miss my grandfather so much. He was such a pure man and i will never ever forget him. I just want him to hug me and tell me stories of his life. He was the only one in my family apart from me who knew how to speak German and the two of us would talk in that language. I just want to meet him and have a nice meal with him. I want to tell him how far i have come and how much i love him. i just miss him so much.

    Dr. Fahad Saeed soft hearted, soft spoken, softly and sweetly passes a practical message that birth and death are the two ends of the rope called life.
    Live and to die with no fear but with love and a sense of purpose.
    Don’t live your life with fear!
    Death need not feared of.
    Simple as that.
    You die the way you live your life.

    i remembered the TV serial, 'RUN FOR YOUR LIFE'. Knowing his time is limited when medically diagnosed, he did many good deeds for others. Finally, he went back to the hospital and the doctor told him, "you have been misdiagnosed" with the mixings up of his X-ray films. He walked out bidding good-bye to the doctor as a new man in life....of a wonderful world to hear the babies cry.

    Within a period of 2 years I lost two sisters to cancer, my brother to AIDs and my father to a heart attack. My father's death was sudden, but my siblings survived for months and dealt with their reality in different ways. They all said they wanted control of their end, however, doctors and hospitals refused to accept their truth. There is a moment when they need to leave a person alone. I also had to accept that I was not going to grow old with them. The entire period was a tangle of emotional tortures, but my siblings calmly watched knowing their journey was almost over. I hope you final hours are yours to do what you want: laugh, cry, or simply watch yourself dissolve back into the universe.

      Life and death are 2 sides of the same coin. I am now 51 and I have lost all my great-grandparents, grandparents and my father- my only living direct ancestor is my mother. It is sad & difficult, but your life continues. All I can suggest is that while they are alive to give them as much love as possible and avoid causing them anger or sadness. Talk often and hear their stories. Enjoy every day you have with them as a gift, because one day all of them will be gone. Be good to them and you won't have guilt about treating them badly. Then they will live in your memories, in the faces of your children and in the wisdom you have learned from their example- leading a good life is the best way to honor them.

I have been a heavy MARIJUANA smoker for the last ten years and have trippled since her passing. I have attempted to stop several times within this year but couldn't bring myself to it. I truly hope that after hearing this and tapping into the real route fears and problems , I can stop being codependent. life is already mysterious and numbered and that's without freak accidents....I want to live the life my mom wanted for me! I want to be present I want to be clear and loving ,Excited for life while I have It . I am a mom of 1 to a beautiful handsome son and I want to be around as long as possible for him I want to have plans set up for him for when my time comes. I want to give him everlasting memories and joys for him and I to hold on and cherish forever to carry with him. So far I have been blessed not to have any serious health issues and after hearing about the heros you spoke of today I am compelled to CHOOSE LIFE over MARIJUANA

    Three years ago my father passed away from a fall. He realized he was dying remained relatively coherent until the day he passed away. He spoke of who he was, things he had done and at times tears quietly flowed from his eyes, and even laughed. He knew his time had come. He went in peace knowing we loved him. My mother in law, she had an embolism and was told she would make a recovery which she began to do, that is until she was told she was paralyzed. She told us then it was over and she would be gone within days. To the day as she called it she was no longer with us. She controlled her destiny and for some odd reason, I believe she's home where she longed to be.
    I use to know a big man which was a roofer, his wife passed away and he left shortly thereafter, he choose not to live without her.
    My brother N law which was a nurse always told me those who fight it suffer the longest as their bodies continue to shutdown.
    So the question is which is harder to do...continue on or to let go....I believe those who believe there is something else beyond what we know somehow find peace in that thought.

    My human was a Hospice RN case manager. Death is hardly "good", but Hospice and Palliative care help the "crisis" become more manageable. Tears may fall at random, but these are tears of love, loss, and grief. I'm just a cat but my human strongly believes in the healing nature of Palliative care, Hospice care, not only for the dying but also for their loved ones. This is the gift.

    I made my piece with God when I was 29 and I had an infection that had eaten my aortic heart valve away. I made promises to those that I loved that I would do whatever it takes to stay alive and I have been fighting to stay alive ever since. I am 55 now. I don't know how I am alive but what I do know is that I am looking forward to the day that I don't have to fight anymore. Until that time I will celebrate life by flirting, eating, and helping my loved ones who dont listen to a word that comes out of my mouth. I cant tell anyone how to deal with death only how i deal with life. My secret is learning how to love people I don't know like they are the people I promised to stay alive for.

    “To consider that after the death of the body the spirit perishes is like imagining that a bird in a cage will be destroyed if the cage is broken, though the bird has nothing to fear from the destruction of the cage. Our body is like the cage, and the spirit is like the bird. We see that
    without the cage this bird flies in the world of sleep; therefore, if the cage becomes broken, the bird will continue and exist. Its feelings will be even more powerful, its perceptions greater, and its happiness increased.”

That goes against our thinking, and way of life, but ''when you eat of the fruit you will certainly die" God warned Adam. Teaching that we possess any kind of immortality is satanic in origin.
