JOURNEY TO THE DESTINY! THROUGH THE MINDS OF A DYING PERSON IN THE INTENSIVE CARE UNIT

• Christopher Mathew*

Abstract

Within the sterile walls of the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), a poignant narrative unfolds—one that encapsulates the raw and profound emotions of a dying person. This reflection delves into the vast emotional landscape traversed by individuals nearing the end of their lives within the ICU setting. From the initial encounter marked by shock and disbelief to the complex interplay of fear, pain, acceptance, transcendence, and reflection, we explore the multifaceted emotional journey experienced by those who face their mortality in this challenging environment.
