My mother was freaked about by an incident that happened with my grandmother as my grandmother was nearing her end in the hospital. My grandmother was suffering from near complete circulation in her legs, which was complicated by diabetes. After several leg operations to the degree that doctors considered amputating her leg, my grandmother was bedridden.
My mother took my grandfather to visit her. He sat on the end of the bed and he and my grandmother (his wife) talked pleasant words with other. Suddenly, according to my mother, my grandmother without any seen reason jolted upright in bed, grabbed my grandfather’s arms, and spoke what sounded like an ancient language for about 30 seconds, before returning to bed and speaking normally again. She died several days later.
What might have been the reason for what seems to me to be an instance of glossolalia? My mom seems to think it is supernatural (possibly evil forces), and maybe that’s so, but it strikes me as having a good medical explanation, given the circumstances. Can anyone shed light on this?
Thanks!
