Best Answer

Anointing of the sick is being blessed before you die. Anointing of the sick includes things like Communion and Confession.

Correction:

One does not have to be near death to receive the sacrament. Any person with a health condition who is seeking healing can receive it. It is not unusual for parishes to hold annual masses with anointing available for all in attendance.
James 5:14
