Is it true that when a person dies his hearing is the last of his senses to go? And. is it true that even though a person is in a deep coma, unable to move or talk, he can still hear every- thing that is being said? Recently a relative passed away, It made me very uncom-| fortable to be at the bedside) while the funeral arrangements were being made, along with the conversation relating to his finances and speculation about a dying person to hear such} anything. Will you print this) please?--Respect Wanted For All Dear All: It is not what a person hears, but what he com- prehends that counts. A patient may respond to light and touch.and sound but these responses are automatic and do not indicate that the brain is translating anything. If the doctor says the patient is in a coma, it is safe to as- sume there is no comprehen- sion. Since patients do slip in and out of a comatose state, however, it is best not to dis- cuss funerals, wills and other matters at the bedside.

It was an invitation from relatives offer- ing a place to live if we needed it. because a friend accepted my gift, thanked me profusely and made no mention that she did not intend to reciprocate as usual. (Finances were not a factor here.) { believe she should have told me several weeks before Christmas that she no longer wished to exchange gifts, I would not then have bought her similar amount on an orphan or, who might not receive much at Christmas time. Do you agree?--Post-Holiday Gripe Dear Post: I doubt that you ward the woman had she tele- Phoned and said she wished to put an end to the gift giving. It's always difficult to termi- nate a practice which has be- come traditional.
