I hope I never know I have just hours left...
In fact I wish to avoid the whole "I'm sick and dieing" routine.
I don't believe I could go through all the crap that comes with knowing your death is just around the bend.
I have an agreement with my family doctor. If I have some disease that's gonna break the bank and leave my family holding the bag... then do not tell me... just let me think all is well... that way I will just go till I can't go no more, then die in the Caribbean and have my sack of guts pushed overboard and a pint poured over me.
A fitting end to this wayward life.
