I know him personally and the oil is sent out as an instruction from God. I was in a service with him when he was pouring oil out on people and the bottle kept filling back up supernaturally! This when God told him to send this oil to hurting people all over the world. He is a man of God...do not touch him!!! The man is for real!

Second, thank you for sharing this. We found my mother dead in her bed on Sept. 5. The last images of your mother remind me very much of my last memory of my mother. Like your mother, my mom had been ill for a number of years, although she was able to live independently until the end. As we go through this holiday season, I pray that you and your family are at peace. Best, Kim Pearson Jay,

So touching. Very bold and brave, it does touch upon the boundaries of the conventional western taboo of death. Personally been surrounded by death lately and I've been thinking about how we think of it as a society, and me personally. We watched my wifes grandfather finally lose his battle with cancer and buried him a couple of weeks ago. And now my step-father-in-law is succumbing to cancer. Watching life slowly slowly ebb from a loved ones body is very surreal. I agree with your comments regarding right to die. Watching my father-in-law feed his day thru a straw in those last weeks made me think who was really in there. What benefit was there when we all knew we were waiting for the inevitable. Also, how we come into this life and how we leave, its not too dissimilar. What goes around comes around in a way. Glad your mother has found some peace. I hope you find strength to get through your mourning. Jay, thank you for sharing such a personal story. So touching.

In the last ten years, she wasn't the woman that I knew. She died a long time ago for me. This has really just been a journey of her body hanging on. I got to say that watching her die made me realize how mundane it all is. Life just collapsing in on itself. There seems no graceful way to do it..unless our society accepts "death with dignity" and the 'right to die" movement. As our parents, the Baby Boomers, start dying off....I think its important for us to share what we experience as their children. My mom has been sick since I was a little kid.

At least I havent seen many of these stories in videoblogs. It definitely touches on taboos. But this is my Mom. As an english teacher, she would have wanted me to tel the story that made sense to me.

I actually didnt even had a camera on me until I realized my new iPhone had decent video. As time goes on, I expect other people will record the crazy parts of life we susually depend on Hollywood to depict for us.
