Feeling Another’s Death

Myrna Carlson
US

On April 22, 2024, unbeknownst to me, my daughter-in-law was in the hospital 200 miles away. I was staying with a friend and walking to the kitchen. Suddenly, I felt woozy and slid down the wall. My blood pressure was dramatically low: 80/40.

A ambulance was called. While in the ER getting IV fluids, my friend came in and told me that my daughter-in-law had just died. These events happened within 15 minutes of each other.
