Have you ever watched someone die

[Gothic-chick]

I have watched two people die. My Grandma and my Dad.

When my Grandma died there was a dark shadow on her face and at the moment she took her last breath the shadow slid off of her face. It was very trippy. I wasn't the only one who saw it either. There were 3 other people in the room who all saw it happen.

I wonder if it was like you hear about out of body experiences? You know like her soul hanging above her body watching and then leaving.

When my Dad died he just stopped breathing and nothing else happened. But several hours before he died he started breathing heavy and seemed very agitated in the exact same way my Grandma did a day before her death.

My Dad was on morphine and talking crazy for a few days before his death. He kept asking us if he should bet on a horse, he said it was number 5... We thought it was the morphine because he never bet on horses before.

A week later my Aunt and Grandma came down. We were all talking and my aunt said a week ago (on the exact same day)they went to the races and won some money. I asked what the horses name was and she said she couldn't remember but it was number 5... Was he there?? Was it coincidence?

I watched as one of my good friends in high school blew his brains out in front of pratically the whole school in the main courtyard of our high school...He did it over a girl which was the sad thing....A lot of us tried to talk him out of it but it did no good at all...It was a completly horroring experience and it still bothers me even now when I think about it...

Yes. Many. A good friend, like a brother to me, died from cancer. I was there. He told me to pull the cord. So I did. I didn't really care nor miss him. Because although I may act it, I never really care much for anyone. Could care less if all my friends dropped and died right infront of my eyes. Unless they still have something that belongs to me and I want back. Like if they own me money. Pay *before* you die!

Yes that is really terrible Kpro..........I guess that is something that would be hard to forget, I know that being the kind of person you are, it must have really affected you! :(

Gothic_ chick, and MD2, Also............very touching stories. You are very strong people!

I can't say I have ever had the experience.........except with an animal, and that haunts me enough!

I watched my dad die of cancer. Well, I wasn't actually there when the death occurred, but I basically watched the disease eat him alive.

When I found him dead, his eyes were open. I tried to close them, like you see in the movies, but they wouldn't stay closed. They kept sliding open, slowly. Like, if you stretch out a Stretch Armstrong, his limbs will slowly go back to their original shape? That's how it was. It was frustrating.

I got to deliver an atheist's eulogy at his funeral, because he believed what I do. It was great. I was able to show all of those religious folks that there can still be comfort in death even without the promise of heaven. I got lots of compliments on it, and everyone told me my dad would have been proud.

When i was 15 my firend got hit by a truck. and while the driver went for help, i stayed behind with him. while he laid there slipping in and out of concious (sp). he died five mins before the ambulance arrived. at the time i was glad that he died cause he kept on moaning and talking to his mother. (who wasnt there) about how much it hurt. i had some massive guitly feelings about being glad that he died. well it wasn't a feeling of gladness more of a relieved feeling really. i dunno w/e

Totally understandable, wu. You simply couldn't bear to see your friend suffer, and were relieved when it was finally over for him. I would have felt the same.

They call it the death rattle, I don't know why but thats what I've always heard it referred too.

Working in a prison(s) I have seen 2 people kill themself by hanging, we cut them down, but they still died. I have also seen 1 person die due to knife wounds, lots of blood. We did CPR but to no avail, so you might not want me to do it if you ever get hurt.

As a Lieutenant everytime there is an execution, as managers we are put on standby. The death squad is comprised of managers only, (Captains and Lieutenants) and the assignment rotates with each execution. My number has yet to come up.

Ugh. no thanks. Dead things in general scare the hell out of me. I cant imagine going through what any of you have. i have watched a pet mouse and a pet hamster die from tumors, and it isnt pretty.

The mouse had gotten so bad that her teeth clicked (loudly) everytime she took a breath. We ended up giving her some rum laced with nyquil. she drank it, kept gasping, then just stopped. I would never have imagined that watching something like a mouse die would have too much of an effect on me, but it was really wrenching to see it. It didnt help that she was emaciated, and all of her hair was slicked back... Poor pathetic little mouse... My fiance lost it. it was her pet.

The Hmaster (RIP: Bubbles) got a tumor that grew bigger than her head (but on her side). It was really sad towards the end because she was a hyperactive little shit, and by the end she could barely move. She died in our hands too. That one messed me up, because she was like a really tiny puppy..

I watched first my mother die of cancer, then 5 years after, me and my two brothers took care of my father as he passed the same way. Nobody should ever have to change their fathers diaper. Word to the wise kids....don't smoke.


Now where is the silly threads....this is much too depressing.

I saw a cat I had die...that's all I got.
He got sick for like 2 days, I fuigured he'd just ahd some bas catfood, so he was resting up a lot, then he just started cryin', jumped down from the chair he was on, tried to walk, fell over, went into a seizure and died. Looked pretty painful, I remember seeing his pupils dilate almost fully.

I haven't watched someone die, but I saw someone get shot.

I was driving with Evis to Chicago, and we were at a stop light and we saw these two people fighting. One guy pulled out a gun and shot the guy in the chest. It was pretty scary.

[cheebacheeba]

Did ya see it rip out the other side of him?
Just wondering...
