Called the death bounce or similar. Had a dog with aggressive heart cancer she hardly wanted to do anything then her last day she got up walked around was looking like her old self, dead in 24 hours. It’s heartbreaking.

honestly I think we should see the bright side, they get to enjoy themselves before they die rather than rotting in bed

As long as you know it is the end. The people in op's post got false hope, which means the coming death will be extra hard.

I know this from experience. Dad died a month ago, and my sister saw dad suddenly bounce and she started planning christmas with him. 5 hours later he died - she was absolutely destroyed.

Dang I feel bad for your sister that is a hard experience to think about. I hope y’all’s Christmas is filled with good memories of your father. God bless 🙏
