Something I've noticed in reading accounts of the care of ebola patients, and it seemed to have happened with Mr. Duncan, is that sometimes they seem to be getting a little better, and then they die.
I have heard similar from a nurse friend in general about people who are dying. They seem to have a last minute rally - in some cases this enables them to have a few last moments with their family. She said she often knew the end was near when someone who was gravely ill suddenly perked up. She said the sad thing was that often this led the family to believe their relative was undergoing some miraculous recovery, which was not the case at all.
No links for this - just hearsay from a friend
