Thanks for sending me to look that up. It might help in my Jeopardy! qualifier next week

No one knows for sure what that moment of Death feels like ... even the most violent outcomes could be peaceful to the victims [Black Dahlia could have gone quietly after she was strangled - I believe she was drugged & didn't struggle - and never felt all the butchery that happened to her afterwards], yet a quick but fatal brain aneurysm could have been a moment of excruciating pain beyond measure

"She went peacefully" or "He never felt a thing" could be complete bullshit

I wasn't with my Dad went he died, but my brothers told me he struggled and fought to take each breath, because he didn't want ANY of them to be his last - he was so scared, my one brother said, more scared than we'd EVER seen him

We know he died from Cancer, but Fear was a contributing factor
