Experience description:

While he was very ill with throat cancer, in hospital, my grand-father told one of my aunts that my grand-mother had come to tell him it was time to go. My grand-mother was already deceased. He gradually declined and came to a stage where he was in and out of consciousness, at some point, he told the nurses to stop waking him up because he was getting closer to God (he said: "arrêtez de me réveiller, je me rapproche du bon Dieu").
