Mindset Of A Dying Individual And Palliative Care

To some people death is an outsider from another planet or constellation that has been sent to whisk them away into the terrifying depths of the underworld. Others have simply accepted it as a feature by which god pulls out the unwanted crop and gives new grain to those in need. They can feel it's coming as if they are in constant rapport with it and even after this they don't try to do anything about it. In their language and the language of the scriptures it is said, ‘dust thou art, to dust thou shall return'

It is a common sight to see that many of the terminally ill patients are sent off to palliative care units when the doctors treating them find that it is useless wasting time on a person who has no scope of recovering. This mindset of the doctors is then transmitted to the family of the patient who in turn give up all hope that they had nurtured for their loved one. In short the person is condemned to die.

However consider the fact the if one could provide the necessary medical care and support a little before, it would be such a good pleasure to fulfill the dying wishes of the person an as well as trying to ease the pain and suffering thereby improving the outlook of life enabling the curing forces of nature to get to work and try to reverse the damage the illness has caused. Palliative care is suggested by physicians as they are blessed with a very limited mindset when it comes to dealing with patients. Prayer meetings and other healing session that are conducted to intercede for the patient's good health work wonders on some occasions. A form of telepathic healing that is caused by the evoking of the blessing of all the gods up and below the earth.

Surveys have shown that the mindset for pain and suffering that one experiences during the dying days is programmed right from the start. It is basically the emotional trauma and psychological destruction of the person that blows apart the body mechanism of the person. This information that is stored in our subconscious memory has to be erased and done away with if we are to look and live a life of joy and happiness.

Now coming back to palliative care, this aspect that I have mentioned in the earlier paragraph is done away with by the gentle coaxing and inner healing sequences that are affected by those connected with these services. Trauma and other grievances that are stored in the minds of terminally ill patients needs to be given time to be forgotten. It is imperative that during this time of healing the family member of the patient are close by so that the patient knows that they are people who care for him/her and they need to fight back and try to reclaim the sweet aspect known as life back into their hands. This not only will support the patient but it will also help bring together the family members to prepare for the worst in case fate has its way.
