The dying process usually begins well before death actually occurs, and understanding this process can sometimes help you recognize when your loved one is dying. There are changes that take place physically, behaviorally, and psychologically in the journey towards death, which are signs that the end of life may be nearing. Death is a personal journey which each individual approaches in their own unique way. Nothing is concrete, and nothing is set in stone. There are many paths one can take on this journey but all lead to the same destination. A wonderful experience of a terrible moment turned into something beautiful and sad too, but uplifting and encouraging for a family to cope and move on with their lives. A touching, loving, and spiritual insight of the dying process, filled with peace, smiles, and starting on their journey, taking me with them as far as I could go, returning back with something I didn't have before.
