I mean, I don't want to be aware that I'm dying.
Same in my family.

Convinced it is a coping mechanism. It is frustrating for loved ones but they always seem to be in a happy world.

Like a lady I know who loved knitting. At the end she couldn't do it anymore but made the actions with her hands and seemed so happy. She didn't know she wasn't actually doing it.
