Those legendary Last Words.

“A nurse from the hospice told me 
that the last words of the dying tended to be the same: 
almost everyone calls for (or out to) their mother* with their last breath.”

- Hajo Schumacher in Der Spiegel.

*As a greeting ?

`Haven't seen Mother in awhile; almost 60 years
much later, I heard she'd had a stint in prison and followed the Grateful Dead
This, second hand from a New York Police Commissioner she'd married and divorced
It seems entirely possible, since I'd had this "sense" once at a Dead's concert
or maybe it was the LSD
"well, hello. pleased to meet you." ???
