Beschrijving

In this episode, I dive into the strange and moving phenomenon known as terminal lucidity - when dementia patients who have lost their memory suddenly regain clarity, often just a day before they die. I’ll look at the science behind it (from neurotransmitters to oxygen changes in the brain), the spiritual and philosophical questions it raises, and why thousands of families describe it as a final gift. check out wordswomenmyths.co.uk to read the transcript on my blog and find similar articles!
