do you dream after you die?

For our assignment, I had to choose an article that relates to my blog, and write about it.  It was difficult to find an article about dreams, but I found one that I think dreams can relate to.  I read an article about a family making the decision to donate organs from their dying father.  Of course this decision would be difficult for any family to make, but if your father's death could give life to another, the satisfaction would be grand.  There would be life after death in a sense.  Curtis Kelley, the man on life support, is dying from a severe stroke with no brain activity.  He was not an official organ donor, but his family knew that he wanted to donate his organs to save someone's life.  The doctors needed a long list of organs to be donated.  They needed a heart, liver, lungs, kidneys, pancreas, intestines, blood vessels, and even some skin.  His son, Kello Brown, said, "I just want him to look nice," for the funeral, of course.  The doctors would use prosthetics to restore his body to look normal for the funeral.  This is a great story of sacrifice, love, and compassion.  The family did the right thing, in choosing to donate those organs to unselfishly save multiple people's lives.  So you are probably asking yourself, what does this have to do with dreams?  I was very curious about what kind of dream state one would be in if they were in a coma, life support, or near death.  People say that while dreaming, or near death experiences, or even right before you are dead, large amounts of chemicals like serotonin and endorphins are being released in your brain.  It is also said that in the dream world, time in not the same as time in the real world. You can move from point A to point B in a split second, which cannot be accomplished in reality.  It is difficult to prove that the times are different, but your imagination is much more complex and has no boundaries compared to reality.  So could you be dreaming for years in your mind only minutes before you die?  They say that when you die your life flashes before your eyes, could this be a dream?  Or when people claim to have died, gone up to heaven, then come back to life, maybe this was just a dream.  It is interesting to research and read about different people's experiences.  We will never know the whole truth about dreams, but through this dream blog, we can both learn more and more about our dreams.  Our ultimate goal is to have the ability to control our dreams or lucid dream...good luck...
