Last rites and dead?

[MartyrForJesus]

I really wanted to call attention to this post.

I lost both of my parents this year. Each received Anointing within hours of death; Communion within days of death and Confession within weeks.

Call the priest when the doctor or nurse tells you that it doesn’t look good. Ask them if it is time to call the priest. They know. They will tell you, yes or no. Please, please call.

My condolences for your loss.

Agreed!

My grandmother died just recently. I honestly believe that she held on long enough for the priest to come and “release” her. After he finished, he told her that it was ok to let go, and she literally went limp and released her last breath. My grandpa, a protestant, got to witness it.
