If it interests you, then why not get trained for it!? If interested spend time on dealing with people with these issues!. It would do you good and the people you are sitting with!.
I would not feel comfortable with somebody that just sits and waits for somebody to die!. It seems you would be getting more than you are giving!.
I would require some type of professional counseling to in order for you to do what you are asking!. As you say!.!.!.
You are not a preacher, nurse, or doctor!. Get an education and become certified!. I would not want you around a relative that is dying just because it is something that you find interesting!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Most hospice agencies are always looking for volunteers!. Look up either "hospice" or "home nursing agencies" in your area and make some phone calls!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
