Original: Do dying people know the end is near? This is what science has discovered
A science explader circulating in health media examines whether terminally ill people can perceive that death is approaching. Coverage points to research suggesting many patients report an awareness of nearing the end, sometimes days or weeks before death. The topic is drawing attention for what it reveals about consciousness at the end of life and how families and carers might respond to this awareness.
