does anyone have experience of a loved one who saw fairies/faeries shortly before dying? genuine answers only!

Question

My Father died 11 days ago. Shortly before he fell into a coma through complications from lung cancer, he said he could see faires/faeries. I understand there are probably numerous medical reasons and explanations, but my Grandmother also said the same thing before her death(my Father's mother). I don't want to hear medical explanations at this point; only others' experience of similar happenings.

Answer 1

When my sister was 5 and I was 8 she was very ill. Doctors couldn't understand what was wrong with her. We used to share a room and outside our window we had an orange tree. There were about 50 small white lights floating around the tree, as well as one green light and one pink light. Moving very slowly. We called my mother and grandmother who also saw the little lights flying gently around the tree. I immediately knew they were fairies as I had been told of similar experiences. Where we lived in South Africa you don't get glow worms, and the lights were much brighter than glow worms.

My sister later had to have her kidney removed, but I believe they were either fairies or angels sent to guard over her. I don't expect anyone to believe what I saw, but 4 of us saw it. I'm not one to usually believe in these sort of things and neither is my family. I hope this was what you wanted.

Answer 2

I am so sorry that you have lost your dad and my deepest condolences to you and your family, my mom died of breast cancer 7 years ago and just before she slipped into a coma she said a beautiful angel was at the bottom of her bed and two little angels that look just like fairies are stood at the side of the angel, what a wonderful thing for them to see before slipping away, fairies are associated with love and protection, they come to make some peoples passage to the other side easier for them, I never have and never will believe all this medical explanation of what people 'do not' see according to the profession, only those in the last stages of life have the answers and why would you doubt a loved one when they say something at their end, hope this helps and you are coping OK, good luck.

Answer 3

Two days before my father died of cancer, he told my mother that he was in a garden where he was in no pain at all. He said he liked it very much! He did not recognize anyone though! He said he might have been dreaming , but I believe he was already travelling to the other side! This happens to terminally ill people when they drift in and out consciousness! Does this make any sense?

Answer 4

Yes, I to believe this happens all the time.I used to work in the medical field.Hospital and nursing homes.I always worked the night shift because I had young children.Most people die at night or right before the sun comes up at dawn.Most of the people that would die on my shift would always see either small children usually bringing flowers or people who they knew.Some would not tell you what they saw.Even if we were not expecting them to die, we knew they did not have long to live and would die within 24 hours.It happens a lot.Nurses are used to it so if you have a chance ask one that's been around for a while.I used to be scared of things like that(Years ago) but has my Career went on.I saw a lot of interesting things happen like this.I no longer am scared to die and know people that I have lost, I will see again.I honestly believe your relatives saw what they did.That's what usually happens.Sorry for your loss. Good Luck!

Answer 5

I spoke to my mother's mother shortly before she died. She was under some sort of delusion that the Russians were coming at one stage. Probably due to intensive media manipulation regarding the communist threat during the cold war. (it might also have been something to do with Russian dolls, and perhaps she was referencing the KGB who were her three daughters)

My father's mother did not know who I was when I went to visit her in a cancer ward shortly before she died, despite me visiting with my father and mother whom she did know.

Delusional effects and confusion are normal in old age, and in particular the latter stages of life (or after chemotherapy). Also when you get to that age you will realise that it is sometimes better for people to think you are senile and delusional by making up stories about fairies. It helps them come to terms with their death, as it gives them an excuse to let go of the person they once knew.

I was once served a small cup of coffee by a waitress called Angelique, above the clouds. I was feeling rather sorry for myself at the time, and she really lifted my spirits.

Think about what mind games you might play when you are on your deathbed.

Answer 6

we actually dont see faires, they are angels sent by God who have come to take our soul to the heaven. there are people who have even said that they will die on this day and time, it does happen. this is not unrealistic. before the time of death the angel of death appears and tells that particular person about his death, we have often seen people who suddenly go into a comma or at times people from prolonged illness suddenly recover well this is life , we all have been sent in this world to spend a particular time frame so in a way or so we all actually see these fairies

Answer 7

My Grandfather was in a coma for a week before he died. He could not communicate with us as he was classed as "brain dead" Prior to his last breath he opened his eyes, gasped and said "Look at the angel"
Rumour has it that the deceased come to meet them when they are going to the other side. Obvíously few of us can speak from our own experiences, but I believe anything is possible.
I'm truly sorry for your loss.

Answer 8

So sorry about your father, but I personally believe that there is something next. Many years ago I almost drowned and while I was struggling not to breath I heard a voice quite clearly saying not to panic and just relax. I can't say for sure who's voice but a feeling of total relaxation came over me and I know I didn't imagine it!

Answer 9

First of all: my condolences on the loss of your father. I've never heard of fairies being seen before one died. I know of people who saw loved ones that died. I must say it sounds very beautiful, seeing fairies. Maybe they were the entities that guided your father to the afterlife.

Answer 10

I'm a nurse and Ive taken care of many people who have been dying.The most common thing I have witnessed is the person sees a close relative who is already dead as if they have come to collect them ,but never fairies
