In the book Where Death Delights, by Marshall Houts, Milton Helpern, the one-time Chief Medical Examiner of New York City tells of people who sensed that their own deaths were quite near and called family in to say farewell, or in one case, made a long walking journey to a particular church so they could die there.
This is not, Helpern stated, uncommon. In fact, medicine has given it a name: the thanatognomonic sign. Is anyone here familiar with it?
