I hope that I am able to witness Christ's return and He takes me out of here. If I die before that happens, I just hope it's not painful. Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
Much as I would prefer to die with my killer's throat clamped in my teeth, or perhaps be swept away by flood waters saving a child, my end will almost surely be slow and ignominious. I've seen the people, often stroke victims, sitting in the hallway in a nursing home, unable to do anything but stare blankly, waiting for death to end their pain and boredom. So I ask, when do you want to die? When you can no longer live independently? When you are in great pain? When boredom becomes too much? Would you do anything to hasten your death, or will you wait for death to come to you? Uh, cheers.  I hope that I am able to witness Christ's return and He takes me out of here. If I die before that happens, I just hope it's not painful. |

I hate being unable to live independently, but since I can still do some things myself, life is still tolerable, so I'm in no hurry to leave this existence. However, being no longer able to do nearly all of the things I used to enjoy, makes life sufficiently dreary that it would not bother me in the least if I were to wake up dead in the morning. Would you do anything to hasten your death, or will you wait for death to come to you? But, were I to become one of those human vegetables, able to do nothing but lie in bed 24/7, being spoon-fed, and shitting in a diaper, I'd want to invoke California's assisted suicide law. |

As one who currently resides in a nursing home and has seen at close hand people like the stroke victims you describe, I definitely prefer death over being totally dependent upon others. I hate being unable to live independently, but since I can still do some things myself, life is still tolerable, so I'm in no hurry to leave this existence. However, being no longer able to do nearly all of the things I used to enjoy, makes life sufficiently dreary that it would not bother me in the least if I were to wake up dead in the morning. As long as my physical condition doesn't get too much worse than it is at present, I reckon I'd wait.

On yours and 90sh556's response to immortality, I look at how politics will combine with technology and I'm pretty sure I don't want to be around for their final victory. Although they might provide an opportunity to at least die well. |

I just hope not to die before my kids are grown and out of College. I've had some scary medical issues this past year as I suddenly lost my hearing in Oct along with tinnitus, vertigo and severe balance issues. Was worried it might be a tumor and a CNS tumor would have meant I would likely already be dead. Instead, no tumor but disabled so I really can't walk much, no more motorcycle, and working is impossible. It really sucks how life can change as a Friday I was normal and by Tuesday the following week I couldn't hear people in meetings and it only gets worse but I'll live.

I wish I could have died one month and one week ago as I stood by my poor little ex-wife's demolished body in the hospital and held her hand while she died.
I was soooo angry with her when I was driving to the hospital...and when I walked in the room and saw her all tied up to those damn machines....all I cold do was weep for everything we could have had if the drug pushing doctors ( general practitioners...not REAL doctors ) of this world hadn't poisoned her to death. The irony of ironies was the HOSPITAL staff was wonderful and did everything they could.....but even God, Himself would have worked up a sweat putting my poor little girl back together. I'm one of those few unfortunate people who hasn't had to watch someone I dearly loved die once....but twice. I wish I could have died right there with her. As it is...I am stuck here for a while longer. I can only pray to die on my feet in some manner that is honorable...I really don't care what the circumstances are....I just hope it counts so that if I ever get to see my Baby again....she can be proud of me. |

At night, while I'm sleeping. I have a living will, specifying not to do any life saving measures if I'll be/remain bedridden. It's enough of a drag with my current health issues, and I don't want to live as a blob. Both of my kids are adults, working, etc., so no worry about leaving young kids behind.
I haven't cared as much since 3/2/08, when my wife died, but I've never been suicidal. |

Walked into the nursing home room #6 to switch out of a phone and saw the occupant clutching the blanket looking completely terrified. Staff told me she was completely catatonic. Just gone.
My godfather suffocated to death in the presence of his wife and son. Didn't want to go, was still mentally active, but his body betrayed him to a horrific disease. My grandfather had a stroke and after waking up in the hospital, threw himself headfirst onto the floor because he didn't want to live disabled. I don't want to go like that. If I can't die fighting marxists, statists, or for my family, I want to wait until my body is failing me and then eat some pasta, drink some good bourbon, pet a dog for a while, and then walk out into the woods and hope my 1911 doesn't fail me like it did last time. |

Not for a very long time. As long as my mind is functioning at a reasonable level and I'm not in terrible pain. Since I'm at best an Agnostic and probably wouldn't get into heaven even if it does exist, I'm in no hurry to stop existing or be suffering in hell.

Ideally: In bed, asleep, at 90, with the Swedish Bikini Team.
Reality: In bed, asleep, before I lose sense of the world/my faculties. If I'm facing a terminal disease that will do nothing but drain my families resources and cause pain to myself and them... well I'm not opposed to punching out. |

Certainly, do not want to live forever. Would be most happy if I departed not one minute sooner, nor one minute later than I am supposed to. If that time was tomorrow, while somewhat sad that I had to leave my family, I would not regret it provided it was my time; if that makes any sense.

One of my kids will have a pilots license one day, even if I have to drop $9k for him or her to learn. truthfully I will probably die with a weed eater of chainsaw in my hand. I am covered in poison oak from cutting damn brush at the branch the other day. view is amazing though
