✨ Heartfelt Insights from an End-of-Life Nurse ✨
Ever wondered what your last words might be? 🤔 Julie McFadden, an experienced hospice nurse, shares some touching moments from her work with patients at the end of their lives. Known as Nurse Julie on social media, she reveals that many folks express similar heartfelt sentiments as they near their final moments.
The four phrases she hears most often are: “Thank you,” “I forgive you,” “Goodbye,” and “Please forgive me.” 🕊️ These words are a testament to the human spirit and the importance of closure and gratitude.
However, life isn’t a scene from a Hollywood movie. Julie explains that these words often aren’t big, dramatic proclamations, but rather gentle expressions that occur well before the final breath. After 16 years in her role, some end-of-life experiences still surprise her. She has witnessed patients who seem to ‘decide’ their own time to pass, choosing significant dates or personal milestones. Even more mysteriously, some see deceased loved ones or beloved pets weeks before passing, yet remain sharp and aware. 🐾👵
Julie’s insights highlight the profound, sometimes unexplainable aspects of human experience. Patients might also act in ways that seem childlike or call out to family members, offering glimpses into a world we may not fully understand.
Ultimately, the journey towards end-of-life is unique for each person, showing the deep connections and feelings that endure till the very end. 🌈
