How does someone’s unexpected deathbed confession or request affect loved ones left behind? The ramifications can often be life-changing, leaving family and friends bewildered, hurt, and resentful. This Insight episode explores how deathbed confessions or promises can help the grieving process, redefine the relationship with the deceased, and provide closure.

Insight airs Tuesdays at 8:30pm on SBS: http://www.sbs.com.au/news/insight​

Insight, hosted by Kumi Taguchi, is Australia's leading forum for powerful first-person stories offering a unique perspective on the way we live.

Insight first went to air in 1995 and has since been a mainstay of SBS current affairs programming. The team doesn't shy away from taboo topics: from polygamy, to brain implants, to the secrets revealed on the deathbed.
