I heard his last gasp and was able to hold his hand, but I have no idea if he knew I was there.
Sons bury Fathers who had buried their Father. And so it goes on and on.
Peace.

When my Mother was in the last extremis of her life she appeared to be comatose with the death rattle..however I was able to talk to her and she was able to respond ever so weakly..at first she would just squeeze her finger ever so slightly and then it was a slight move of the eyebrow. I asked her if she was afraid she said no with a move of the eyebrow and are you in pain and that was a yes with another move. The same with my Dad he too was in a comatose state yet he heard my words and he let go with within less time than it took to type this out. Again with Sandy my words helped release her from her pain and suffering. So yes they can listen and even respond ever so slightly almost to the very last breath.
