When my grandad was dying he told me he wished he had someone to speak to who wasn't a family member, someone he could open up to and be honest with without upsetting them.
This stuck with me, so that's what I do, I just talk to people and they can be honest about how they feel, how truly afraid they are or they tell me about regrets they have had in life, just the kind of stuff that would upset family members and loved ones.
I have noticed that when people are close to death their minds can become very active, its almost like the brain having a final mental workout before death.

We need to punish the French, ignore the Germans and forgive the Russians - Condoleezza Rice.
