Brother Brockmann mentioned Dr. Dan looking upward. My mom did that too a couple days before she passed. And she kept reaching out (seemingly toward something) with her arm(s). I don’t know what kind of biological phenomenon that could be but, I’d like to think that it was someone she loved and who loved her coming to pick her up. She also kept repeating “papa” in our native language, my brother and I initially thought she was referring to our father/her husband, but she still called out even in his presence and reached toward something above her, wide eyed. So maybe… hopefully.. it was my late grandpops welcoming his beloved little girl.🥲 What do y’all think? Anyone else seen something similar?

I was with my granny in hospice in her last days of life. She appeared to be so thirsty. She wasn't talking to us. She mumbled at times but was jibberish. But I was so hurt by her thirst and talked with a nurse about it. She said my granny wasn't thirsty and I could do nothing but cry. After a couple hours, the nurse came in with a thick purple liquid and a dropper like syringe and told me to be very careful and give her only a tiny bit as not to choke her. My granny liked it. That night, she passed. I asked the nurse if that purple liquid did her in sooner and the sweet little nurse said I gave that for you to be comfortable. Hospice nurses not only look after the dying, but the family as well. I'll never forget that womans face. She really was an angel for our whole family.

John does have his own family he needs to care for and how many people with their own family could just drop everything and stay for an extended period to care for a family member?

Ouch. My mother (60) just passed away this February from breast cancer that spread to the leptomeninges as well. It’s a devastating course of illness isn’t it? I’m not sure if you got to see much of it.. but I was by my mom’s side in 8-12 hr shifts for a month. I felt like I was watching a loved one being tortured.. The pain, fear and stress of those memories are so visceral and intense to me, many times I feel like I am in physical pain, like I can’t breathe and my body, my eyes forget how to move for a bit. And then the guilt of the realization that whatever emotional, physical or psychological pain I feel, must have been a billion times worse for the person who actually suffered through this illness. So ouch. Because there are no words. This kind of death is so evil and ugly. It tore me to pieces and I wonder if I’ll ever feel whole again.

@shopz3235 Thanks for sharing on a trip to Kauai in February 2021. My sister started acting strange, and my niece said that she must see a doctor upon return to Canada. Her hearing went that March in her left ear, and multiple tests revealed multiple inflammations but no diagnosis. Finally, after a hospital stay in neurology because of seizures, a stage four advanced brest cancer, it took 4 months for a final diagnosis. Then, aggressive chemo, 5 rounds, but by December, she was not cognitively well enough for further chemo, and a palliative home care referral was made. Her personality changed from an extroverted go-getter to an extremely anxious sister. It was very hard to observe as the sister I knew was no longer. It is truly heartbreaking, and I empathize with palliative care givers they are amazing. I never in a million years would have thought my sister would go this way, unbelievably diminished. We all fell silent with shock and disbelief. 🇨🇦

Thank you for the update. Dan was given 2-6 months to live 10 months ago! He defied the doctor's prognosis to still be here today. He's fought a long, hard battle and soon will be time for rest. Prayers up for Dan and his family during this transition.

He’s a great guy … I will always remember him saying “look for the good stuff in life “ … I loved that he always focused on the “little things “ and reminded us that they are really the best part of life

What a sweet brother! Blessings in Dr. Dan's transition to his final home! "Non-verbal" cues! Yes. So important to recognize. The night my grandmother passed, my mom and I had washed her hair, and while washing she started snoring. It was so sweet. She was calm and at peace.

Do not feel burdened to us, we received the gift of Dan's presence (virtual), and his extremely positive and inspirational thoughts/ideas and demeanour. The Bockmann family seem to be such kind people. My Dad has terminal cancer (stage 4 lung cancer) and Dr. Dan showed me to face this with strength, stoicism, kindness, empathy, and a drive to help my Dad in any way that i can. Dr. Bockmann is a hero, a fighter, and a true inspiration. I am wishing the Bockmann family peace during this very, very difficult time. Sending you love from canada

I am so sorry to hear this news. Dr. Dan is so loved. It's amazing how much you look like him and have his same mannerisms. I thought he would beat this, but God has a plan for each of us. Let him know his fans love him and know He is in God's hands. It's so precious that you have been there doing all the things you have done for him. I am sure he knows you love him dearly.

I was not in the hospice the day my father died.The day before I was ,but at moment of his death I was not by his side.I will regret it until the day I die.If you can,stay with him til the end,brushing his hair and speaking to him you will have no future regrets and your brother would feel so comforted with all of his family at his bedside.May God spare him from more suffering.

I took care of my beautiful wife as she went through this same debilitating process a year and a half ago. I know the pain, the love, and the understanding that we be there for them always. “For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord’s.” Romans 14:8. Much love to Dan and your family. ❤️🙏🏻

Thank you John for having this conversation with the Dr. Dan community. Thank you Doc Dan, for talking directly to my son, when he wrote to you, because I was too shy to, and told you how I was just diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer. That was such a blessing to witness your kind words to my son. And all of the people here, over and over, every day, you all just seem to have the most comforting things to say, to the Doc, but for the rest of us too. I will forever consider Dr. Dan one of the most special people i have ever "known", And yes John, this is an incredible phenomenon, how your brother with his special nature, became a catalyst for this incredible expression of love from our Panda family to your family. What wonderful people! Bless you all!
