I just learnt that the sense of hearing is the last one that will go from a dying person. This is a poignant fact to me.
When my late mum was in a coma during her last days, I still sang hymns to her by the bedside and shared with her my happy memories of her throughout our life together. Her friend saw her hand twitch as I spoke. A doctor said it was merely reflex action but now that I have learnt the above fact, it affirms what her friend saw. My mum could hear me singing and sharing.
This is such an overwhelmingly joyful moment for me :)
