Scientists have begun to study what happens to the brain just before death and during dying, hoping to find answers to the mystery surrounding this process.
And earlier this year, according to neuroscientists, the brain of an 87-year-old dying man showed rhythmic brain wave patterns similar to those seen during dreaming, memory retrieval and meditation.
Palliative care specialist Dr. Simran Malhotra, an American triple-board certified doctor who was awarded the “Top Doc” title for palliative medicine by Baltimore Journal in 2019 and 2020, says this study found evidence that the brain may remain active and coordinated after a person dies. , recalls vivid events and memories from a person’s life.
Dr. Malhotra explained that when a person is dying and before death, he hears and feels everyone around him, even if he is unable to respond.
For this reason, the American doctor suggests that friends and family members only talk about the things they want the person to know before they die, even if they are no longer able to interact.
He noted that knowing the dying person that a loved one can still hear them may provide a source of comfort when preparing to die, and it can be an intimate time when the individual can share their feelings and thoughts with the person they love, continuing: “Also encourage them to hold their hands, and tell them about their presence and more things.” Significance (I’m sorry, please forgive me, I love you, and thank you)”.
While the thought of death may be terrifying even for the bravest of us, Dr Malhotra shares the number of her patients who feel especially comforted in the form of end-of-life dreams and visions, also referred to as ‘ELDVs’.
“Most of my patients have had similar experiences where they had comfortable visits and conversations with deceased loved ones (family, friends and pets), saying, ‘Other unique experiences I heard from patients were sensing a loved one in the room, calling out the names of their deceased loved ones, or telling you that Someone is calling them, seeing bright lights, or just feeling at peace,” Dr. Malhotra noticed similar patterns in her patients and began to recognize these visions as a sign of what was to come.
She notes that some view ELDVs as spiritual experiences, but healthcare professionals sometimes feel they are ill-equipped to deal with them when they occur to a patient. For this reason, they may misdiagnose these visions as delirium, while ELDVs are hallucinations in the strict sense .
She said, “I am constantly reminded that not everything in this wonderful life needs a medical reason or explanation, every time I try this gift from a patient or a loved one, it reinforces this belief in me that there is no goodbye, just ‘see you later’.”
