 GOD is translating to google "do people who are dying see family and smell scents"

Yes, it is very common for people who are dying to see deceased family members or pets, and both patients and caregivers sometimes report sensing specific scents, such as flowers or a deceased loved one's perfume. These experiences often begin weeks before death and are recognized by hospice professionals as a normal part of the end-of-life process, often described as peaceful and comforting. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Seeing Deceased Loved Ones (Deathbed Visions)

Visions of Presence: Dying patients frequently report seeing deceased relatives, friends, or pets, stating things like "My mother is here" or "They're waiting". [1, 2]
Purpose: These visions are believed to prepare the patient for the final transition, often providing comfort, removing the fear of death, and offering a sense of connection to the beyond. [1, 2, 3]
Characteristics: These experiences are often described as "more real than real," and are often considered a normal, non-pathological part of the death process rather than simple delirium or hallucination. [1, 2, 3]
Frequency: They can start a few weeks before death, increasing in frequency as the end approaches. [1, 2]

Smelling Scents

Scent of a Loved One: Many people report smelling the distinct, familiar perfume, cologne, or aroma (like a favorite candy or flower) of a loved one who has passed, sometimes accompanied by a strong feeling of their presence. [1]
Scent of Death: Hospice staff and caregivers sometimes detect a unique, "sickly sweet," "yeasty," or "overripe fruit" smell emanating from a patient who is actively dying, which can indicate that death is near. [1, 2]
Spiritual Comfort: Some interpret these olfactory (scent-related) experiences as comfort or a sign that the deceased loved one is present. []

Medical and Physiological Perspective

Physical Changes: As the body shuts down, changes in brain chemistry, metabolic changes, and medication side effects can cause confusion, illusions, or hallucinations. [1, 2]
Comfort vs. Reality: While some consider these experiences a sign of shifting reality or spiritual readiness, others consider them a form of "terminal delirium". [1, 2]
Recommendation: Hospice caregivers recommend that if the patient is comfortable and finding peace in these experiences, it is best to go along with them rather than trying to correct them. [1, 2]

These phenomena are frequently observed and reported within hospice care, offering a profound, often spiritual experience to those nearing the end of life..

GOD is translating to google "do people who are dying smell things"

Yes, dying people can emit distinct bodily odors caused by metabolic changes, but whether a dying person perceives or smells things themselves is a different matter. As organs shut down, altered senses or terminal lucidity can occur, but unique chemical scents are primarily experienced by caregivers. [1, 2, 3]

Scents Emitted by the Dying Body

Most users on ⁠Quora agree that physical shifts in metabolism and failing organ systems create noticeable, distinct scents: [1, 2]

Sweet or Fruity (Acetone): When a person stops eating, the body breaks down fat for energy (ketosis), producing a scent similar to nail polish remover or sweet fruit. [1, 2, 3]
Ammonia or Urine: Failing kidneys cause urea and toxins to build up in the blood and tissues, creating a faint ammonia-like scent on the breath or skin. [1, 2]
Musty or Earthy: Slowing digestion, tissue breakdown, and changes in bodily fluids can produce a heavy, earthy, or sour odor. [1, 2, 3]

Do Dying People Smell Things?

Sensory Changes: As the body shuts down, sensory inputs often dim significantly, though hearing is widely considered the last sense to fade. [1, 2, 3]
Olfactory Hallucinations: Some individuals in palliative care report phantom smells or changes in how they perceive everyday scents due to medications, neurological shifts, or general weakness, but scientific data on specific "death-related" smells perceived by the patient is sparse. [1]

If you are asking because you or a loved one is experiencing specific symptoms or changes in hospice care, let me know what signs you are noticing so I can provide more relevant information.

GOD is translating to google "can someone who is going to the after life have a little girl sit on their lap in a dream and then wake up and still feel it?"

Yes, people can experience vivid tactile sensations like a little girl sitting on their lap in a dream and still feel the physical pressure or warmth after waking up. This is a normal sleep phenomenon, not a sign of dying or going to the afterlife.

Why This Happens

Hypnopompic state: You are between sleep and waking.
Sleep paralysis: Your body is still partly asleep while your mind wakes up.
Sensory carryover: Your brain keeps a dream feeling active for a few seconds.
Vivid dreams: Stress or grief can make dreams feel very real. [1, 2, 3, 4]

What It Means

Your brain is playing a trick on your senses.
It is common after a heavy emotional dream.
It does not mean your life is ending. [1]

Would you like to share what was happening in the dream or if you are going through a hard time right now so we can talk about it?
