A Bad Death « Those Emergency Blues. A few days ago a 70ish-year-old patient arrived by EMS, end-stage liver cancer, sent in by her family because she was “not feeling well”. From home. No advance directives. She was frail and obviously unwell, jaundiced, her abdomen distended by ascites. EMS reported she was vomiting blood on the way in; her pulse was racing, her blood pressure was dropping. I asked her the paramedics to offload her into a Resus Room bed, and I followed in to help EMS lift the patient into the emerg stretcher and to help the primary nurse with the assessment. The patient looked me in the eye, a look, I think, of astonishment, vomited once, and coded. It was a bad death. Like this: Like Loading... 666 Truth > Home. Who's Alive and Who's Dead. FamilySearch.

Immortality: Conditional or Innate? Immortality: by Bob Pickle Preface This paper is a collection of texts which, taken at face value with no alteration of the meaning of the English words used, indicate that immortality is conditional. Conditional immortality means that death is an unconscious sleep. It also means that hell fire will not last throughout eternity, though it will be hot and will last awhile. On the other hand, innate immortality means that man is naturally immortal and that at least a part of him can never ever die or enter an unconscious state. On both sides of the question can be found texts in which certain words used cannot carry the same meaning as they do in today’s English and still harmonize with one’s view of the subject. To me the most disturbing redefinition is the one for "eternal life. " The texts that, taken at face value, support conditional immortality are listed below. Many who believe in innate immortality describe man as a triune being: body, soul, and spirit.
