My grandfather kept telling us for weeks that he was going to die. We shrugged it off. He even made the point to say he wouldn't be around for my birthday, which was a week after he died...
A friend of the family asked my aunt if she would take her daughter and raise her if something ever happened to her. She was 28yr old and healthy. She died suddenly 3 days after making her will, from a blood clot.
I work in a hospital, and I know this is pretty common, for people to know or "sense" their death.
Do you think they have somekind of "forewarning" and are not able to talk about it?
How do they know? Any ideas?

There may be some kind of instinctual "forewarning" in some people. Some people, of course, really do know when they are going to die. I think that most people don't have much of an idea of when they are going to die, though.

I think that some people do know--even if they have not been told by a doctor or loved-one. I don't know if they see it in a dream, have a premonition, or actually know--but as you said, it is quite common.
This worries me, as my youngest son has said since the age of five that he would not live past his twenties.
