What is your take on your upcoming death?

I'm going to die of a nurological malfunction, probably well before I or my family is ready for it. I'm not scared of dying. I came to terms with it when I was young and had cancer for the first time. I was 21-22. What I am scared of is leaving my kids behind. I am in a lot of respects all they have. I need them grown and safe.

Did you ever see Solent Green? I think about that sometimes. I am very curious and I want to be apart of my families life for as long as I can. I don't want to end my life. I don't want to just end and go to black. I want to enjoy my last years and be healthy. I think I was not I would just want to end it. I had thought I would have a sugnificant other in my life and that we would go together but that fell through so I am on my own. Not as interesting an ending but it still ends and I hope it isn't messy. I told my kids I think they should have a wake. Enjoy the good memories of my life and how we shared it. I want to be cremated and haven't decided where I want to be put or blown over or whatever.

I do not think about these things Rajib because they may be practical but are also morbid and would make me slightly confused and pensive.There is only one thing certain in this world and that is the fact that all people who are born must die some day.That day can be the next minute too..Why think of the inevitable?Whatever has to happen would happen whenever it has to and I would only think of all other positive aspects.I pray that God guides me and saves me and gives me His grace.--that is all.

I can't even imagine not being here and I am very scared of it. But my biggest fear would be not living long enough to see my kids grow up.

Well i've always thought that i am going to die young. But i just turned 30 a little while ago and am pretty sure i'm not going to now. I still have yet to figure out how i'm going to die but i've had some crazy dreams that they were in motorcycle accidents or some freak elevator fall or something. I guess i can only find out the hard way.

Hi rajib...what can I say about this..I have been at deaths door twice in my life and neither times would they open the door and let me in! It wasnt my time to go yet and hopefully it wont be for a long time to come, although I cant predict that. It has made me more aware that I want to do what I can, while I can, enjoy whats left to the fullest, be kind to everyone I know as you never know when you may need help. I dont worry about what I cant change, I dont worry about things that are irrelevant. I live for the present and do what I can for the future. I know what it feels like to be laying in hospital, not knowing if you are going to live. I have felt that. Twice. I do not want to go anywhere yet. I have in fact beaten one of my problems and amazed my doctors. I want to spend a long life with my husband who has been with me all the way. He is a wonderful man who deserves much more than my miserable problems, so I pretend they do not exist, and life goes on!! I live and I love and I laugh, until I can no more. OK, next discussion!..

Hi Rajib I have not given it much thought so as to be scared of it...rather on moments when life seems to hard to handle, I am glad of one day gone and one step closer to the final destination Sometimes I become too melodramatic and tell my son and hubby how they will miss me or not, whether they would remembers, how they would manage without me and so on...teasing mind games and they are not much bothered, let me tell you! Ideally, I would like to die in my sleep...have a heart meal, have hubby by my side, another day well lived, my work all done and then off to sleep and just wake up in another land Won't that be really nice?!
