- At 29, in the face of a life cut short due to a rare form of ovarian cancer, Michelle ‘Mike’ Ng held a living funeral to gather her loved ones while she was still alive.
In our conversations with Mike, she found comfort in the palliative care of Jayne and her team from HCA - one of Singapore's largest home hospice care providers.

We’d like to thank Mike & her family for allowing us to preserve this intimate moment of their lives. Though death is a difficult topic to tackle, Mike taught us to never shy away from it, but to look it straight in the face so it has no power over us.
Stories like hers remind us of why we do what we do.
If you’d like, share your well wishes for Mike’s family in the comments, and we’ll pass it on to them.
- Stef (OGS Producer)
Rarely ever comment, but this was... sobering. It's a shame that our society has lost such a brave soul who knowingly stared into the abyss and didn't blink.
Just like to thank her and her family and you for sharing this with all of us. Condolences to the family and all strength and power to them.

Huh? As if unaliving oneself isnt a thing.
:(
Moved by this video and moved by Mike for the incredibly strong person she was, even in her final moments. Rest in peace!
So touching story and sorrow sadness last wish to have family friend gathered together last time RIP Michelle hope u doing well with jesus without pain and free💐💐❤😢😢
My husband just passed away a few weeks ago from cancer. He wanted a wake after his death. I changed it up and gave him a "how did I meet you party". He got to see all his friends, reminisce and just enjoy their time together. No one was allowed to say cancer and I am so sorry statements. It was really beautiful. He was gone less than two weeks later.
I am so happy you got to enjoy this beautiful moment. ❤️
RIP :(
Stay strong, you did something amazing. ❤️
Such a wonderful beautiful thing to do😢❤❤❤❤
❤
I hope that you experience serenity after loss, and that the best in life comes to you
That’s Awesome!
Anyone else think this is so much better than mourning someone in a casket? I think a final send off like this is a beautiful thing.
I agree, wholeheartedly.
Nah. Grief is grief. There's no such thing as "this way of griefing is better than that way of griefing". Grief is grief. Everybody deals with it differently.
@@Wonwonssi Horses for courses 😊
The funeral grief is not for the dead, it's for alive people who cared about him. they support each other by their presence and expressing good feelings towards the deceased.
So, no way "living funeral" is ok. It's a last gathering of close people, then there's a funeral. And since now funerals is a big business, than it's reasonable to procede a small funeral.
and has the bonus that the person could really enjoy the flowers people have brought for them for it. It seems strange that we usually buy flowers for dead people.
I could be wrong but I can definitely tell she's using every fibre left in her body to hold back all her tears. What a soul, I wish her a happy new life in a better place.
Or maybe ran out of tears a while back. This is so tragic, but she's so right. We need the clarity of death to see life clearly. I'm going to remember her for this.
there is no "better place" LOL
@@josephmarzullo True. It’s not a “place” I guess
She's on fentanyl. That definitely affects one's mind
@@josephmarzullo Why don't you go and check for us?
She passed 10 days after this event 😢😢😢, thank you, her friends and family for being there for her, with her, comforting her in her last days... she is such a strong woman, such a stron spirit, she is with Jesus now, we will all meet again! RIP sister, no tears no more ❤❤❤
♥RIP
So sad so strong lady
, rip condolences, family members, friends
So sorry for your loss, condolences to the family. This was really beautiful and touching. RIP 😔.

“Death is not scary. The dying part is terrifying.” Profound in its clarity and simplicity. RIP Mike.
My dad died on March 3rd 2024 and he was in the hospital for a month. Let me tell you, we went through it that month. The scariest and most heartbreaking thing. When he died it became taking care of the logistics. Our hearts grieved tremendously till the moments before but once it happened, we still cried but was relieved in some way that he isn’t going through the agony that was visible to us. We watched his condition deteriorated, he died of many complications but I think the main thing was that his kidneys failed and dialysis was not working well for him, it gave him a brain bleed. He was so emaciated that it haunts us till now when we remember how skinny he was because he was always a muscular and big man. His body just gave up and wasn’t taking in any nutrients. We did all we could. We are Muslims and we believe in God (Allah) so we believe in the afterlife and that comforts us.
I remember the time we freaked out the absolute most, when he went to the hospital for water in his lungs (which we didn’t think much of it because he had it a year before and got out alive) and stayed for a few days before getting dialysis, he became completely delirious and was screaming random things, then his oxygen which was 100% dropped to 70%, my sister called me crying and I was grocery shopping for the family and ran back home sobbing and whole body shaking. Our whole family went to the hospital and we seen about 50 to 100 people (friends and family) waiting to see him (they let us go before them because we were direct family), we seen that he was intubated and sedated and nothing at all could have prepared us, we were SOBBING and thought he would be gone that day. Thank God that He kept my daddy around for another month for us to be close to him till the end and spend as much time with him before He took his soul.
Another really traumatic sad part was when one of the nurses changed him and was a bit too rough with him (I guess he got annoyed of my dad’s delirious rants) and he kept asking my mom “why did he hurt me?”, dad was the strongest person I knew till this day and and to hear him say someone hurt him kills me and makes me want to die💔
Sorry for this rant, I got emotional when I read “the dying part is terrifying” because I definitely can relate.
@@samia6888sending you and your family so much love. It's so hard to watch those we love pass away.
@dlnnyc64 - I totally agree, I witnessed my parents' slow, painful death. I am terrified of the dying process more than death itself.
@samia6888 I'm so very sorry for your loss. I know exactly what you mean... I lost my mom at 8 and my dad to brain cancer in my 20s. He passed within 7 weeks of diagnosis. He entered the hospital within the first 7 and was only discharged 40 hrs before he passed. I was a caregiver to him and was the one to find him in my childhood bedroom after he succumbed to the disease.
The hospital stay was brutal. He was never able to walk without total support again. I commuted 3 hrs multiple times a week just to be able to sit bedside, despite having a 2 yr old, only bc my in laws helped financially. He was only capable of a (maybe) 2-4 sentence convo, at most. He suffered a couple of life or death complications, one of which had me flying to the hospital immediately after the clock struck midnight on New Year's Eve. But my struggles to be with him were nothing in comparison to what he endured.
I know the slight relief you might have felt at the end, knowing he was no longer suffering, had little impact on the trauma/grief it brings. The grieving process is about your loss, so relief for him doesn't alleviate your pain. Having to come to terms with the brutal battle you witnessed was traumatizing enough, let alone the loss.
So please know you are not alone. My heart goes out to you. I am sending you loads of love.❤
Death is a consequence of sin, it Is appointed that ever man should die, we just need to pray we've made it to repentance by then 😢❤
This living funeral concept is beautiful.
Reminds me of the book of Job, when his friends came.
I also want this to happen..God' s permisdion..if ever He will calls me.
I’ve always said this is a great idea as the people actually get to see and hear how much they are loved.
I think a living funeral is a great idea. Get your flowers while you are alive to smell them.
It’s not a funeral. The definition of funeral literally says service held shortly after ones death.
To have a room packed with THAT many people who love you, is true wealth.
Amen. 💯 true
Yeeeesireeee...
When she talked about wishing she could have children, take her parents on holidays, continue to go cycling, I just hoped she could feel the joy of all those things by being surrounded by her loved ones. As someone with depression, I often want to die. Seeing people who have so much love for and in their lives makes me wish I could give them whatever time I have left. The way her friend hugged her as if she could keep her there just a little longer shows how loved and cared for she is. The way her brother held her hand and spoke about his fear of navigating life without her shows how much impact her presence has. A life where people come together to hold you tight one last time is a life that should go on. I hope she is resting peacefully now and that her light comforts those who had to let her go. ❤️🩹
Praying for you too. Having depression is not easy.
You're a light too my dear!
Very nicely written...
You are worthy and there are people who care and love you too
She has time to say a decent goodbye. Can't say the same for the 17yo girl victim in Tampines car accident.
“You need the clarity of death to help you see clearly in life”. Let that sink in.
Too deep lah can please explain its meaning
Words
@@bobafett5757when u are diagnosed with cancer, u will understand. I had been at the edge of the cliff before, I need no explanation myself.
If that is true, everyone would die a wise person.
@@kevinng8061 What is the first symptoms u felt so bad that u think its cancer cos I am actually scared to face it ?
Honestly, this is better than traditional funeral since the dying one can hear how much her friends and families love her before her time came up, she can really gone in peace. 🌸
@@Killertails666 Awwe, poor child. You'll be truly happy someday 🐧
@@Killertails666 aww sorry your mommy made you clean your room 🐧

Funeral is for the mourning of the living, not for the dead person.
My dad passed away this morning. I'm trying to get through this and finding comfort everywhere I can. This helped. Thank you Mike. 🕊
I am sorry for your loss😢
WE LOVE YOU , TIME WILL HEAL ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤you are important and love and needed don't give up ❤❤❤
I am so sorry for your loss. My dad passed away from Covid three years and three months ago, and I still can’t get through it. The wound is still fresh; it’s still painful and it still hurts. My condolences to you and your family. Take care.
I know how you feel. My dad passed away 5 months ago, a day before my birthday. I miss him so much.
*Super big hug * ~~ you are not alone ❤❤❤❤
Alot people don't get the chance to know you will die ..its a privilege to say goodbye to everyone you love it is a pure gift
True. Life is anyway short. So, the best we can do is, to make the most of it, not to hold grudge or hate and spread peace, love and happiness. It is either others or us, who will depart early even if we are unsure of the time and circumstance.
My mom had COPD. She was put on hospice. About 11 days in, she woke up and told me she was done fighting. I called the fam and we essentially had a living wake for her. She didn’t want a funeral, no obituary. She said if anyone couldn’t come see her when she was alive, she didn’t want them crying over her when she was dead. She slept for that last 3 days and passed peacefully with the ones who loved her most in attendance. Death doesn’t have to be this big, scary thing. My mom embraced it, said it was part of life and nothing to fear. I can only hope I’m that brave when it’s my time.
Beautiful. Her final lesson to you was to show you it was alright.
She was fearless brave lady ! Am sure that you will be like her !
My mom passed 4 years ago from COPD & emphysema. It was terrible. I'm so sorry for what you've been through
My dad had emphysema and he did his best to prepare us for his departure. I still wasn't ready
Keep lying to yourself that death can be "peaceful",reality will kick your ass at the end
My biggest WTF after my husband died is that he didn’t hear the wonderful things people said about him. While I liked hearing about his impact, he needed to hear that himself. This is absolutely glorious and kind.
Exactly! Why have we been doing a celebration of life service and saying special things about the deceased! It now makes total sense to celebrate the life of the living while they are still living! Intimate, loving, some humorous memories to lighten everyone's heart. ❤
Awww, Im sorry for your loss.
I definitely believe the deceased can hear what we say about them at their funerals so I am sure you husband heard ❤. But I understand having the assurance of telling them while they are still here ❤. I am so sorry for your loss. My family just had a tragedy with my sister in law but she was too sick and too much pain for this type of thing 😢
Love transcends, time, space, and even death. The important thing is he lived a meaningful life and he is loved.
Because some people still have hope that they will make it, in their eyes it’s like giving up
2024 and people are still dying of cancer. Imagine if we put all our funds into cancer research instead of wars and stupid endeavors... May she rest in peace.
I get what you're saying..lost my mom to colon cancer in 08 an still have not accepted it... But why put funds into research when we still don't really know what we're eating, still breathing in chemtrails daily, water is not safe nor the air and these things are done purposely... This world is a very scary place and they have to depopulate it somehow.
Forgive me if this isn't exactly the right place for a discussion, but I just looked up how much is spent on cancer research yearly (never mind how much has been spent over the decades). I don't believe that dumping more money on the problem will solve it. Besides, there are many "cures for cancer" out there if you go looking. I know people personally who found ways to heal.
Cancer is an industry, and in spite of thousands of smart people with good intentions, I don't think any one "cure" will be found, as long as so many livelihoods depend on never-ending study and development of treatments. Of course many helpful treatments have been found, but look how much they cost! Astronomical.
Please do your own search and read some of the viewpoints by experts. Here's a snippet of one article:
----------
Only a small percentage of cancer research funding gets invested into primary treatments, a study by the University of Southampton and Queen’s University Belfast has revealed.
The investigation, published in the journal Lancet Oncology, represents the first comprehensive global analysis of cancer research funding, covering approximately $24.5billion of global investment, from 66,388 public and philanthropic awards between 2016 and 2020.
Results of the Southampton and Queens study showed that treatments such as surgery receives just 1.4 per cent of funding, and radiotherapy only 2.8 per cent, meaning little direct benefit for patients.
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. GLOBOCAN estimates that in 2020 almost 10 million deaths were deemed attributable to cancer and 19.3million new cancer cases were diagnosed, a value projected to increase to 28.4million by 2040.
@@livinginnevada9160it's the consumerism that's really the problem. Corps/companies or big entities handling these micro-essential commodities such as food and water neglect the quality and safety of their products because there are so many people buying what they sell anyways. We need to control them and not let them get away with this. There has to be a way to make sure that the water, the food, they sell is safe for consumption. I think it is possible, it's just that people don't care enough because the concequences come at a much later date. I truly believe that this cancer thing is 1 civilizations check that we, mankind, must overcome.
@@livinginnevada9160but yeah, i really agree with your sentiments, we should be putting more effort not into the cure of cancer, but into it's prevention. Water food and air quality nowadays are too toxic.
The problem of cure of cancer is that there are so many cancer types. You can not cure all cancers with a single cure, definitely. Sometimes maybe you hear “a new treatment has been tested by xyz researchers of abc University on rats” ecc ecc… but not on all types. It’s simply impossible (sorry for my poor English, I’m italian 😅)
My best friend arranged a party to say goodbye when he had cancer of the oesophagus. He became unwell before the party and was taken into hospital, I said I’d go to hospital to visit him. Being northern men we never said a nice word to each other but he was out of it that night so I thought I could get away with saying "You are the best friend a man could hope for." Then as clear as day he said "So are you." He passed that night, as his family were celebrating the man he was.
I’ve just bawled my eyes out for someone I didn’t know 20 mins ago and I’m forever changed.
Same. Just cried like a baby over someone whom I've never met. Life is wild
Me too! May she rest in peace in the arms of Jesus. ❤
Omg same here 🥺
Same except I'm not forever changed and realistically neither are any of us.
Me too .. n i sent this to my girls friends
Her acceptance makes this event possible. Living funeral so she can meet everyone, hear everyone, and everyone remembers. She seems to have so much energy here. I care for a terminal relative and they still can't come to term with the end, and have all kinds of anxiety and panic.
Sorry to hear it sending hugs to you both ❤
Has your family member asked Jesus Christ into their life and forgive them of their sins? If you pray with them to receive the Lord Jesus Christ into there lives thern they most certainly will make it to heaven and be safe forever . Jesus said he that has the son has life, but he that does not have the son shall not see life . Just a simple prayer is all it takes to know jesus and to be forgiving a life time of sins. God is willing that none should perish but all come to repentance.
It might be beneficial for your family member to talk with a therapist who works with terminal clients.
@@Trike. Amen
I pray you see the message from commenter Trike and pass it on to your relative. God bless you both.
"I want to go Back To Jesus" WAS SOO WHOLESOME I'm Sure she is with Jesus. Rest in peace Mike
Just because someone (or anyone ) says things about the Lord or mention Him ; that does not mean they are or were.saved . It does not mean that they obeyed Him which is the only way to be saved (obedience ) You can live your whole life in vain . And in the end it's too late . No repentance . Never was baptized in His Glorious Name . Never tarried for the precious gift of the Holy Ghost . Never continued stedfastly in The Apostles Doctrine. This is The Only Way To Be Saved . (Acts 2: 37-42 kjv) Consider what I say .Peace be upon our current day ,Leader ,Teacher Guide,Apostle Gino Jennings

@@israelv.maldonado3483who are you to say she was saved or not? You can’t know for sure if you were saved, by your logic you can’t also rely on your own judgement regarding being saved or not saved yourself. He is the one who has the last say

This video proves that you don't need to know a person personally, for their story to bring tears to your eyes😢 RIP Mike ❤

Amen, she seems to be a lovely, kind, and obviously beautiful woman. I pray for her loved ones. 🙏🏼🩷🌸🪽
I cried too.. she’s so brave.

I know how it feels to lose a family member to ovarian cancer, also list family to other cancers rip mike 😢
Used to work under her , i was devastated when i heard the news . She was a nice person , soft spoken and kind .. She always wanted the best for me and inspired me to do what i love. Thankyou Michelle for having me in your journey.. Rip 😔❤
:(
Quite shocking and scary really imagine your about to die just that your not sure if your ready to accept it or not
She’s a very pretty woman, funny and humble. I genuinely am upset and I just started watching. I would trade places with her if I could.
@@richiepoo thing is sometimes people have to go its the fate
I guess she did not "waste" her life at least she is being remembered as a pleasant lady & likely made an impact in many aspects 🥲🥲🥲
Don't take things for granted until you lose them. Appreciate the ability to breathe the air, see people, spend time with the loved ones, and do things you enjoy. It's really a mental shift, but adopting this mindset can lead to a more fulfilling life.
A couple of years ago, a very funny, smart friend was diagnosed with cancer in November. The doctors didn't think she would live a week. The family got a hospital bed that they were able to put in the living room ( old house with very small rooms). She LOVED Christmas and all the decorations. We realized that we didn't have room for her normal tree, so I got a 3 foot tree and decorated it with flashing lights and jingle bells - she was basically blind, but could hear the bells and see the lights go on and off. The whole house was decorated inside and out. We all came and visited her for the 3 weeks before she left this earth. The first week or so, the doctor had her on morphine because of the pain, and she told stories about her life. The last days, she seldom woke up, but we stayed there and talked in hopes that she could heard us. Charlotte, I hope you know how much your life touched our lives.
Sorry for your loss, ma'am.
As a hospice nurse, this is one of the most beautiful things Ive ever seen. We are all going to be there one day, dont fear it, instead look death in the face by living every day like your last. Dont wait, no one is promised tomorrow
Offcourse la have to fear..20years ago...i got too many sins and wrongdoing..especially to my all ex-gf..Now got no face to ask them for forgiveness since all of them already had family..
@@izwanizi Jesus can forgive anyone. You're not too far for redemption, and you don't have to fix your life before coming to him. He already knows everything you've ever done and still died for your sins. Surrender your life to him today where you are, and he will redeem you.

May God embrace and comfort the family of Mike
@@izwaniziwell buddy if you believe in Christianity all you have to do is say you apologize and believe in the power of Christ and you’re good ;) Alternatively you can yknow choose to believe that there is no eternal damnation because you cheated on past partners
More importantly you still got the rest of your life to live and can choose to be kind to others now
Some people, like this woman, go towards death with such courage and strength. I really admire her for that.
She .said she was anxious
@@oneseeker2 who wouldn't be anxious? Are you saying that negates her having courage and strength?
This is quite admirable and I would consider this if presented with a terminal illness. My mother passed in hospice and for the 2 weeks she was there she was visited by all that loved her. We would then meet at my sisters house for dinner and do it all over the next day. Some days she was able to be present towards the end we would just watch over her and share memories or just be. I find it similar to her story. Thank you.
Wow thank you 🙏🏿 Michelle ( mike ) family & all her loving friends . For sharing this sad 😢 & precious intimate moment !
And to be honest I wouldn’t mind to have a living funeral like hers , because what she said it’s so true !
That when a person dies , it’s just the viewing followed by the person been buried .
And the person that dies , doesn’t have the chance. To say goodbye to friends & family members , that perhaps 🤔 you haven’t seen in a long time . Having this live funeral , gave mike a chance to remember all the memories shared . With family & all friends , but it’s so sad 😭 that she was so beautiful . And so young only 30 years old , I would‘be like to know what was her diagnosis ??
I heard Cancer , I hate CANCER it has taken my mom & other family members unfortunately !
And I can’t wait till scientists 👩🔬 find a cure for it , but I know Michelle it’s in heaven . No more pain , but I’m sure her immediate family & friends missed her terribly !
May you Rest In Peace ☮️ ✌️ Mike , God earned another Angel 👼 !
👼😭❤️🙏🏿🥰☮️✌️❤️🙏🏿
@@oneseeker2right this person thinks what they said is so profound but I have watched people die and yes they accepted it but if they had a damn choice they would not accept it , like I can’t stand people and their stupid “profound” words ugh
My grandma passed from stage IV ovarian cancer last year. She got to plan her whole funeral from the music to the flowers. It was so surreal.
My sister also died when she was 30 due to liver shrinkage... 😢 she was also very brave girl ...may her soul rest in peace❤
“I want to get well… I want to go back to Jesus.”
I cried. May Her soul forever rest in peace. She was ready to be with God.
My sister, I only want goodness for you and that is why I advise you. I implore you to reflect before it is your funeral.
O People of the Book! Do not go to extremes regarding your faith; say nothing about Allah except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, was no more than a messenger of Allah and the fulfilment of His Word through Mary and a spirit ˹created by a command˺ from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers and do not say, “Trinity.” Stop!-for your own good. Allah is only One God. Glory be to Him! He is far above having a son! To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And Allah is sufficient as a Trustee of Affairs.

Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, dr.sporessss I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place.
Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac.
He's constantly talking about killing someone.
He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.
Is he on instagram?

dammit, i wish her the best of lucks in her next life
May her soul rest in peace in heaven ❤
What a fun person she appeared to be RIP Mike.What a great idea for a living funeral to basically see all the important people in your life.
It's almost like she purposely waited to ring in one more new year 😢 I work in hospice n I've seen ppl hold on for a certain day or a certain family member to arrive. RIP ❤
RiP. Beautiful soul.
Why you recommend this video at 2 am, youtube? Now i'm crying so much. The first tear is when her brother said he knew her for 22 years. I can't imagine losing my siblings who i knew my entire life too...
I am an atheist but she believe in God. Then i hope she is in heaven with God and the angels. Happy and laughing without pain or suffering anymore. Rest in heaven, Mike.
I urge you to believe in God as it doesn't cost you anything. The same energy for unbelief is the same energy needed to believe. And if there is no reason to believe there is life after physical death, since nobody really knows what happens after, at the least, your belief can be an option to secure your spot in the afterlife in case the surprise springs up.
I say this with utmost respect for your decision.

My children who were introduced to religion and went to religious school since age three, and they do not believe in god. I introduce them but encourage to think for themselves!
I survive ovarian cancer 8 years ago... Hopefully i have still a Long time on earth 🙏🏼 No more tears... No more pain...
I pray that you will…. Stay positive and make sure you have the necessary follow ups. I know someone that had it 20 years ago, and is still living, healthy. My sister died at 29 like “Mike” of adrenal cancer which is a quite rare type of cancer. She was very angry and depressed. Very hard thing to go thru- terminal disease diagnosis. I admire “Mike” so much. I feel sad but hope that she is in a better place. This world is getting really out of hand. Anyways, take good care ❤
@@camillemousse i tried Camille 😇 you are right, its hard in this times when you see the world is also in deep pain... we have to go through deep and dark valleys, but we have to say to our self the sun will come back! Thank you for your words and i send you a hug for your heart pain 🫂 stay also strong⚓️🍀🙋🏻♀️ greetings from germany
Not even 2 minutes in the video and I felt anxious and started to cry because of this beautiful person 😭
Shocked to see how young she was, just aged 30. As a 32 year old, it reminds me: Life is fragile, love and laugh and live. Don't sweat the small stuff...
My older sibling survived stage 4 cancer @ 25+ and got more toxic instead. 坏人都长命百岁。🙄🙄🙄
@@RonLarhz
How old is he/she now?
@@RonLarhzNot sure how true but heard old people say because bad people will need to live on to suffer more/ longer before their life journey ends.
@@rosyxue1785like the saying “the good die young”
I thought wow, she looks reallly so young for her age, assuming she was in her 60’s or something. I can’t believe she was so young; so not fair. 😭😭😭
Thirty years old. Younger than both my children. Michelle was obviously loved tremendously. What a brave, beautiful soul. ❤
She loved bwc too
@@st4r444 Tf?
29?
@@st4r444 I think you're projecting your desires, dingleheimer. Crawl back into your loveless cave and realize that you'll never have anyone care about you like this family cares about her. You won't be found immediately, your funeral will be silent, nothing, your grave unkempt and dead. Sleep with that in mind please.
❤❤❤❤❤
When she said "God is with us... Emannuel" tears welled up. What a bitter sweet event. God bless them all...
I’m in my second battle with brain cancer and after watching this, if it comes to a point where there’s nothing else they can do for me, I really like the idea of a living funeral. Her timing was perfect, ten days after her living funeral. So sad but she went out the way she wanted, and got to spend time with friends and loved ones.
oh no :(
i will pray for you.
Rest in heaven Mike
What stands out for me is when Mike says that the memories she clings on to the most are "running and cycling". We too often take our health and ability to get up and move for granted, assuming this ability will last forever. Mike's story has reminded me that wellbeing is a privilege not a right. Rest easy Mike, and much love and peace to her family and friends. ❤
Agreed. I started doing Pilates, weight lifting and speed walking for weight loss, but over the years; I’ve come to realize how lucky I am to be able to move my body independently. ❤
Yes as someone who was born disabled (spina bifida and Deaf) developed chronic health issues along the way, and now cancer, I look around and see so many people taking it for granted.
I wouldn't say it's a privilege or a right. It's just the way a healthy body operates until it breaks down and dies. It's the basic function of a healthy human body. Yes it comes to an end. But I wouldn't call it a privilege. It is more of a necessity for a human being to face the challenges of maintaining life until they successfully reproduce.
@@JimStanfield-zo2pzso you live healthy and die well damn , eat bad and probably live
Yeah, that wasn’t the answer I was expecting to hear, but it definitely hit me in the very different way. I could see her looking back her every day life she had when she was healthy and able to move her body like we all do. 😢
I WANT TO GO BACK TO JESUS. That struck me! She was a believer. The Lord gave her the strength and peace.
Her birth year was 1994, so we are the same age. I cried like a baby when her brother spoke because that's how I feel about having my twin brother in my life too. She looks so tired so I am happy that she got to do this. I'm happy she can rest now.
She's same age as me too, that's still too young to die.
😭 she was a year younger than my oldest son. I can’t imagine. I love the way she celebrated her life and made memories why she had time instead of feeling defeated.🙏🏾❤️🕊️
This is a special year for us ‘94 babies… I want to remember Michelle this year ❤
Me too born in 1994
I am also born in 1994. I can not even comprehend how it would be if I were dying. When I look back, my life is actually good, but I wasted almost all of it on worrying, hating myself, wanting to change. Unsatisfied.
I am ashamed before those who left this beautiful Earth where bloom freesias.
What a brave woman. And there was something different about her glare, like a part of her was already on the other side, but she was concentrating on keeping her still 'living' part grounded despite the irresistable pull of what comes next. RIP.
Especially when passed just a week after this….the possibility u stated is even more truer than ever, RIP Mike
That's the look you'll see in many patients who are dying. The body is slowly giving away. If you've witnessed enough deaths, you'll understand. Cheers to life and death.
My condolences ❤ way to young😢 watching this video, she is now part of my journey through life. What a beautiful woman ❤
"Like part of her was already on the other side" that moved me very much. 😥
Yes that look, a sort of half-detached look, is common in dying people.
Heaven was super ridiculous to me until I saw it for a second in my dreams from the outside. It was just pure with no earthly emotions.
Thank you OGS and Mike for the beautiful words and touching video
This popped into my recommendations on Easter and now I’m trying to fight off tears. May Mike rest in peace and her family heal from the loss of such an amazing person.
same, was just watching my everyday go to videos on YT and this popped up, a beautiful soul
same 🥺 Speechless just 😢😭
The video was posted three days ago. Maybe she will also be resurrected on this day
same, hesitated but i watched it. beautiful story
Same right here. It was really sad and beautiful to watch
I have stage 4 ovarian cancer, have had a basketball size tumor shrunk with chemotherapy, then was gutted in the OR.
Happened upon Mike’s video and it has given me much to think about.
Try the carnivore diet with just plain meat, salt and water. Look up the CZcams videos about healing cancer with the carnivore diet. Good luck!
Sending love your way. I hope you can find some peace. That's really scary.
I am not a Chinese medicine doctor, but my Chinese medicine doctor told me cancer like wet and cold body environment (Chinese medicine theory, please talk to a Chinese doctor). You can watch your daily diet and check your tongue to see if your body has too much moisture. Anyway, take care and God bless you. If you live in San Francisco area, I can recommend you a good Chinese medicine doctor.
Sorry, I hope you find peace!
@@puzzletherapy4uJust so you are aware, comments like these are not helpful. I am a biochemist and very knowledgeable on cancer and metabolism, and the carnivore diet absolutely cannot help put cancer in to remission. Giving advice like this without prompt to do so is harmful to the person commenting because it places the blame of their health worsening on them entirely, instead of being helpful to their woes as you may think it could be.
This is so sad yet so beautiful. Make me think about dark and light, live and death and how i should appreciate things I sometimes take for granted in life
This was beautiful. Ty you to Mikes family for letting you share this part of her life. What a wonderful way to show a loved one how much you care .
This randomly played via autoplay. You don’t know how much I needed this video. As someone who was recently diagnosed with an illness that will eventually take me soon. I’m so scared. This gave me a different view. Thank you, Mike. May your soul rest in peace.
Im so sorry to hear that stay strong ❤
Much love to you my friend ❤I’m very sorry for your pain I’ll be keeping you in my prayers and I hope you have an amazing day today ❤
You can be healed!
Hugs to you..and May I please take this liberty to mention the Lord Jesus Christ?
You can call his name and tell him that he is Lord .And that God the Father raised him from the dead.🙏
I'm praying for you
I lost my only child, my son to covid in 2021. By the time i was driven to the hospital, he had already passed away. I scream cried, and went into shock. The chaplain said he could still hear. So i told him how much i loved him, and thanked him for being my son. That was in Dec, 2021, days before Christmas. I still feel raw, like it was ystrdy. Pls keep both john, and me in your prayers. God bless the beautiful young kady who died, her friends, and family. My milestone bday is 4/3. Yet celebrating without john is very painful.
My condolences to you. I hope you find peace one day and know that he would want you to find happiness.
Sending love to you mama. He is with you today and always 💛
Sending Love 💌& hugs🫂 to you...I have a 32 year old son my heart goes out to you...🙏May you one day find peace 🕊
Your son would want the best for you❤️🩹🫂
Sending love to you and John Happy birthday ♈️🩷🥳
Accept my condolence and may the Lord console you and give you strength. When I see the way people live their lives post-covid, it feels like the ravaging illness never came into human history yet, people who went unscathed refused to take a lesson from its tragedy!
What a beautiful service. An inspiration. Thank you for sharing.
OMG this was so beautiful such a blessing to have all the people around you that you care about and to see what they say and how they feel ❤️to help send you off is so beautiful.
"I'm descending from my throne!!" that made me laugh while crying. Mike, I hope that your soul is running and cycling and smiling. Rest in peace, thank you for sharing your journey because you've touched me and many others by doing so. I hope your friends, family and loved ones are coping well, I'm sorry your life was tragically cut short, fly high angel.
I hope she passed as peacefully as possible. It was clear that she was starting to go from what we see at the party but she tried very hard to be present with them and that is admirable. May her family know peace and her memory be a blessing.
When legs swell up like that, she really has very little time left. One month tops, if not one week.
@@oaktharas Why is that?

Such a kind gesture from her to share that moment with her friends and with us.
My condolences to all her loved ones.
Rest in peace and joy with Jesus sweet lady🙏💜🌹
So many came to mom’s wake but they never came to visit her before she died. Both are important.
Something I have always reflected on.
That's why when my father in-law died only the family were invited because others didn't do anything with him before he died. makes sense to me.
One of my relatives just passed and we were so pissed off by some who never kept in contact, but came in hopes of benefiting in a way or another.
Beautiful woman and too young to die...I just lost my brother to pancreatic cancer and very difficult seeing such a vibrant person become very weak and ill. I hope she is able to run and cycle in heaven with the stars around her. RIP.
So sorry about your brother, Susan. Love and prayers from Laura in EU.
Hug, sorry for your lost.
I'm so sorry for your brother
Cancer is such a horrible infliction. I hope gets consigned to the history books one day.
I’m sorry about your brother. May he Rest In Peace. My mum passed away from pancreatic cancer in January this year. Watching a loved one in so my pain is the hardest thing. Sending you prayers of comfort 🙏🏻
This was incredibly powerful and taught me many perspectives. May she rest in peace 🙏🏼
Beautiful. God bless her and her family. 🙏🏻
I don’t quite understand yet why I needed to see this on Ressurection Day, but I’m sure it will come to me. Thank you, Mike, for your testimony of life and death. May you rest with our Lord. May God cover your family in comfort and remembrance.
Same thought I had. God bless you

Hope you get out of that oppressive cult of lies someday! We're waiting for you.
The beautiful thing is Jesus defeated death on the cross, this flesh is mere mortal but through him our soul can live forever with him in heaven
@@cwgu4693won’t you be surprised!? I guess billions of people got caught up in a cult. I’m sure it wasn’t the anything goes, you can be anything you want to be, go with the flow, Mother Nature, new age kind of cult that the dark side embraces. If good is not real, then neither is satan. And convincing you he doesn’t exist is ok by him. After all, he who dies with the most wins, right?
Oh my god her saying she holds no resentment just sadness over missed opportunities broke my heart. I needed that reminder I’m so so sorry that In this lifetime she never got to live out those things.. truly heart wrenching
Good lesson for all of us. cancel the yoga class and bike riding and dove time to finding a partner and having kids
Aww 🥹 thank you for sharing your story! Rest in peace. What a beautiful idea.
she's so strong this is not easy
I am honored to be a part of a group that watched this video. Mike, i never know you personally, and probably never will, but just so you know, i am thankful to witness the life of yours and your family while you were still alive, you will never be forgotten Mike, rest well. ❤

couldnt hold back tears when her brother spoke

the camera angle while his sister looking at him breaks me
I was holding back tears but that part alone broke me 😢
I’ve met Mike once in November 2022. She was very sweet and friendly towards me even though we just met. RIP Mike.
She is clearly not herself here, but you can tell she was beautiful kind soul

He is with you always.
Lots of love and strength to you and your family.

Thank you so much Michelle and OGS for sharing this video. It made me realize how beautiful and precious life is... And we should share it with our loved ones.
Rest in Peace Michelle.
I never met this woman in her life time, but God, her transition was so moving. A human soul creating a beautiful space to say goodbye ❤.
What an incredible human being. Thank you for inviting us to this beautiful ceremony. RIP Mike.

I’m so happy for you that you were able to have this. It’s so special and truly an honor to have e witnessed it; to hear all the stories and see all the people whose lives you’ve touched. It’s a heartbreaking tragedy that your life has been so brief. I can only imagine the number of lives you would have touched if God had given us more time with you. I pray that He is waiting for you upon your arrival at those pearly gates. God bless and keep you. 💖🥺
That was really touching. Thank you fot sharing.

This made me cry. It's beautifully told and such an important reminder for all of us to really cherish our short time on Earth. fuck all the shit and just be grateful and happy.
This is truly brave and beautiful! I love the idea, I am a cancer survivor, and in my last stages, I hope I’m strong enough to do this.. much love and many blessings. May God be with you to the end, and carry the rest of the way. He’s waiting 🙏❤️💐💐
I only get to "know" Mike in these 17 minutes. But I can already tell that she was a great human being. Kind, strong, determined and loving. This has truly opened my eyes. I think we need to make this a normal thing. To celebrate one's life when they're still here, instead of sobbing beside their coffins, wishing we could turn back time.
"If there's no death, you don't know what life is". Rest in peace Mike.
I think this wonderful. I have stage 4 breast cancer and I really don’t want a funeral. I think something like this would be much nicer.
Never lose Hope hun ❤ God is with you Im sending you my prayers 🥹🫶🏻

Stories like hers are a rare gift to the rest of us. If you’re watching this you’re probably counting your blessings, you’re appreciating small things and letting go of things you should. By allowing this video Michelle has shown us some special truths
Strongly agree ❤❤❤
Damn, i am a big man and I'm crying while watching this. I have liver and kidney problems, most of people with my kind of problem rarely surpass age of 45, and now I'm 32 years old. I considering myself have around 10 years to live. When you realize you have that kind of countdown on your life, it will change the way you see the world. I am feeling more alive now than before, and this video remains me the good side of humanity and consciousness. It's beautiful.
