In critical situations, the organ systems in the human body begin to stop working, the body needs less nutrients and energy. About a few days (sometimes weeks) before death, people no longer feel like craving food and drinks. In fact, forcing people who are serious to eat or drink can make them choke because they are hard to swallow at this point and their mouth is very dry.

Howstuffworks said, because eating and drinking less so people who are dying will urinate and go to the toilet less often, some people may lose control of their bladder and intestines. They feel confused, excited or nervous. This may be because the brain receives less oxygen or they feel pain from family members.

In addition, the whole body will then be cooler and gradually turn green or light gray because the blood under the skin slows down, contains less oxygen. In some people, the skin also appears red or blue speckles. Their breathing is also more difficult, sometimes feeling unable to breathe. Many people also have fluid in their lungs that makes them wheeze.

Some people before death have a need to say goodbye or hear goodbye from relatives, others prefer to participate in religious rituals or keep quiet until they die.

Doctors and experts advise family members to take good care of their patients to receive signs from dying people who want to convey, and try to make them feel comfortable to leave peacefully.

Clinical death occurs when heart rate, circulatory system and breathing stop. From 4 to 6 minutes later, biological death takes place, brain cells begin to die from lack of oxygen, resuscitation is now impossible.
