Popis: There is a growing body of literature documenting dreams, visions, and other trans-personal communications that occur as part of the dying process, often called end-of-life dreams and visions (ELDVs) or deathbed communications (DBCs). This paper describes a unique case involving distressing visions at the end of life, provides a review of existing literature around ELDVs, and will provide a framework within which to approach the patient experiencing distressing ELDVs.
