What heaven sounds like

When my mother was very sick in the few days before she went subconscious, I'd play ocean sounds in the room sometime, with the hope that she'd sleep.

I remember one time she slept and then woke up and asked with such surprise yet relief, I hear ocean sounds, is this really real??

.. and I felt she was disappointed when I told her that I was playing the sounds.

I think what she thought was that she died (was done with all the struggles) and that maybe these nice sounds is what heaven sound like. This is what I felt and thought at that moment from her reaction.

I was also incredibly surprised, that she actually asked me whether it was real or not, when she was hallucinating visual and bigger things the entire day and didn't doubt for a moment that it wasn't real (nor did I feel the need to tell her, since they weren't bad visualizations).

That's interesting, I feel this is not the right word here but this reminds me of my 2 surgeries, the first back surgery that wasn't completed I was fully sedated for 2 plus hours, I didn't have any dreams or anything just nothing at all it all felt like a second has passed by. Before I was sedated a song by Dua Lipa was stuck in my head.

On my second pacemaker surgery I was only partially sedated but nobody told me that I will be losing my conscious during the operation and that time I did have a lot of dreams, the one I remember is I was sitting on my chair in a strange hospital and I was just done with the surgery and I was half conscious and I was that I will be living the rest of my life like that (half conscious). I would then wake up in real life and yell at the doctors and tell them that I didn't want to be operated on and that they ruined my life and did not know what they were doing, I even asked a male nurse whether I was still alive or not. He later told me about what I said and he then replied saying that if I was dead I wouldn't be talking to him. And I was repeatedly told to stfu 😅 I'm probably just another example of this happening to other people.
