What Happens Right Before Death? A Hospice Doctor Explains | Dr. Kerr (#258)

What actually happens right before we die? In this episode, Dr. Christopher Kerr — a physician, neurobiologist, and leading researcher in end-of-life care — shares what decades of research reveal about the dying process. After studying patients for nearly 30 years, he’s found that over 80% of people report vivid dreams and visions as they approach death — often involving loved ones who have already passed. These experiences are not random, not chaotic, and not simply hallucinations. They follow clear patterns and are often deeply comforting. We explore the science behind these moments, what they might mean for consciousness, and how they shape the way we experience grief. This is a conversation that sits at the intersection of science, spirituality, and the human experience.
