ICU nurse reveals what every patient tells her before they pass: ‘People know when they’re gonna die’
An ICU nurse has gone viral after sharing a haunting observation about what many patients say shortly before they pass away.
In a widely viewed TikTok video, user @kirstierobbb, who says she has worked as an ICU nurse for four years, described a pattern she claims to have witnessed repeatedly at the end of patients’ lives.
“Every single person who passes away says the same thing,” she said. According to Kirstie, patients often tell her, “Can you please tell my family I love them? I don’t feel good. I know I’m going to die.”
She believes these patients sense something beyond what medical equipment can measure. Even when a patient’s vital signs appear stable and there are no obvious warning signs, she says the outcome is often the same.
“There’s nothing inherently dangerous that’s screaming this is what’s going to kill them,” she explained. “Yet in every single circumstance, no matter what brought them in initially, they always die.”
Kirstie described what she called a “spiritual shift” that happens before death — something she says cannot be explained by medicine alone. She became emotional while saying that once this inner change occurs, no treatment, procedure, or precaution seems to stop what follows.
“The minute that inner shift happens where the spirit is crying out and telling the person, ‘you have one more chance, this is your last opportunity,’ they always die,” she said through tears.
She used the moment to encourage viewers to reflect on how they live their lives and to focus on what truly matters.
@kirstierobbbthose who are meant to see this will see it.
“We’ve gotten all caught up with all of this foolishness, and I get it because it consumes me too sometimes,” she said. “Life is not meant to be an endless pursuit of things. Life is meant to be enjoyed, appreciated, and explored.”
She added, “Your spirit knows you are connected to something deeper than what we’re told.”
Many viewers responded by saying her story matched their own experiences in healthcare.
“As a former hospice nurse, she’s right!” one commenter wrote.
Another added, “Spirituality in healthcare isn’t talked about enough.”
