Coma and what we perceive ...(Letter to the editor)
I have had the privilege of being with many dying people while working as a hospice nurse. They do know so much more than most people believe.
My most amazing patient was supposedly dying after a botched double amputation. She was unconscious for several months, although far from brain dead. I did daily private duty and each morning entered the room and read the prayer printed behind and above the head of the bed. Since I did not know the patient's personal beliefs, I read this silently.
Some weeks later, through several correct changes in medications and a couple of miracles she woke up. As I walked into the room and introduced myself she said, "I know you. You pray for me each morning." She then repeated word for word the prayer. I asked where she had learned it and she said, "Why you taught me."
I later clarified with her that there was no time she saw the printed prayer or heard it anywhere else. She swore she only heard me "saying" the words. Boy did I learn a lot. Now unless I can be a clear channel of positive energy I stay away from "unconscious" people. Apparently some or all of them read our minds.
Just a little food for thought.
