Yes!.

In fact I would welcome it!. I can think of a couple of scenarios when that's likely to happen!.!.!.!.

a!. When having a sudden heart attack in a public place,

b!. In the middle of the road having met with an accident!.
[Now here in India people mostly keep themselves aloof
because of police harassment later and let the victim bleed to death!. But once in a while a good Samaritan might turn up to hold you up!. I'd consider myself lucky (SOME relief in my final moments)if that happens],

c!. In the hospital bed having taken the turn for the worse!.

d!. Having been stabbed/shot!.

Well, if any such gruesome incident takes place and I open my eyes (momentarily) to find myself in a stranger's arms, I'd be too weak to protest/distrust!. A human touch in your last moments can only be anything but comforting!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Sure would, and I'd even do it for them!.
There is nothing more important than human contact at a time like that, it don't matter who, just a caring person!. And if they are willing to hold me, they will most likely be one!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

We "die" to many things each day!. What type of death are you refering to!? If it is physical death you are speaking of, why not a stranger!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

At the moment of death I think just to have someone there to hold you be it whoever is the most important thing!. Your dying what is to trust!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

This is a non-question!.

In the moment when our bodies are abount to transform into a corpse state, trust would not be a pertinent issue!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

well if i was faced with dying without trying or being faced with death with a stranger id trust him cuz the other way id die without trying so i guess so cuz ive got nothing to loseWww@QuestionHome@Com

Are you going to specify that in your Will!? Exactly what choices avail themselves at 'the moment of death'!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

if it happens to me, I hope a strange woman with big knockers holds me close!. Now that would be the way to go!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It depends on the strangeness factor!. Bozo the Clown, yes!.!.!.John Wayne Gacy!.!.!.noWww@QuestionHome@Com
