Rusty, but this seems to have the opposite meaning.

"Morir en vida", as far as I understand it in Spanish is like "enterrarse en vida", as in "Retirarse del trato con los demás." or "suffer in life, as if one was already dead"...

"I am in Heaven", is close, in my view, to "I am in Cloud 9" or some such.

Am I off the mark here?
