Horrible to hear, not harmful or painful to the dying person, the “death rattle” is a normal part of the dying process. t was important to me to include that tidbit of info about Dennis to show him as a person, not just a symptom. I appreciate @vikkisixx13 for sending me this video and allowing me to share it with you 💗 #hospice #nurse #normalizedeath #hospicenurse #nursesofinstagram #endoflife #hospicecare #normalizedeathtalk #learnoninstagram | Hospicenursepenny

Understanding this can help bring comfort and peace during a difficult time. #deathdoula #endoflifedoula #endoflifedoulatraining #endoflifecare | Suzanne B O'Brien | Facebook
