I just spent the weekend at home with my grandma who is under hospice care and falling quickly...
I started thinking about how so many ppl see old friends, angels, Jesus, saints, etc. immediately before they die.
I think it would be extremely interesting to see what is going on with your brain chemistry at this point and how similar it is to tripping.
Does anybody know anything about brain behavior at this point?

One interesting caveat of a study like this would be examples of higher beings.
If they do studies and find no explanation for why so many ppl have these hallucinations Im sure many religious ppl will say it is evidence of a supernatural being.
And even if they found some chemical basis for it, it would still be interesting to see why your brain goes thru these hallucinations right before death.
