The final episode of the FX series 'Dying for Sex' portrays a hospice nurse explaining the dying process in comforting terms, challenging the perception that death is solely tragic. It follows Molly Kochan, who documented her sexual journey after being diagnosed with terminal cancer. The show's creators strive to present death less frightening, emphasizing 'death literacy' to alleviate fears. Experts highlight that understanding dying can aid acceptance, while the transition phase showcases how individuals experience stages leading up to their final moments.
"Death is not a mystery. It is not a medical disaster. It is a bodily process, like giving birth or going to the bathroom or coughing."
"Each death is unique because it depends on a person's age, health status and reason for dying, but most will experience certain stages and symptoms."
