IN your final moments, you want to be as peaceful as possible.
But one hospice nurse has said that if you don’t live this way, then you might struggle to wind down in your final days.
Taking to TikTok, nurse Julie McFadden said that most people will die how they live and added that people need to ‘get their s*** together’ if they want a peaceful death.
She explained: “If you’re crotchey and negative, neurotic during your everyday life, you’re going to be like that when you’re dying.
“That doesn’t always help the situation.”
The nurse said that she held ‘no judgement’ towards these people, adding that she could be all of those things some days.
“From my experience, the people who are willing to accept what is, who are willing to accept what’s happening with them, who are willing to accept help, who are willing to accept their new normal, seem to have a more peaceful life before they die.
“And a more peaceful death.
“So all of you crotchey, negative, neurotic people out there, let’s get our s*** together.”
Nurse Julie said then when we are dying, we all have to embrace help.
She added that she has witnessed in patients how beneficial it is to accept what is happening to you in your final moments.
Nurse Julie previously revealed a telltale sign that your loved one will die in a few days.
Julie said purple marbling that occurs on the feet and works its way up is a sign of death.
She explained: “This is a sign of actively dying which means they will be dying within a few hours to a few days.
“It’s called mottling. It’s much easier to see on white skin, it’s a little harder to see on darker skin but it can be there.”
She also said that another sign that your loved one is about to die, is the death stare.
The term, which the expert coined herself, refers to when a “loved ones seemingly stares beyond you, or stares into the corner of the room or up to the ceiling,
“Sometimes they talk and say they see something but other times they will just stare.,” she explained.
