  • Your approach is terribly refreshing... You're taking all my preconceived notions on the topic of death and standing them on end. Maybe it's something that I need...

  • Thank you. I think the whole notion of death needs looking at quite differently and more realistically. I hope what Ishare is helpful for others, that would add to it for me, and my mother too, I know.

  • Though you think that you have not been enough precise, the part about the letting go of them, so not to bring back any useless emotions which I may add can also in many way bring back their own fear of death, is a very important reflection.

    As I look back at my past experiences of last Swan song of my mother and oldest brother, a lot to learn remain's. Though I find it hard to fallow you on your journey I do have so much still to learn. Merci...

  • 'can also in many way bring back their own fear of death, is a very important reflection.'

    That's a really important point, thank you for sharing it.

    Please, only come as far as you wish with me on this journey. I have no desire to torture anyone with it, or make friends accompany me to places they do not wish to go. You know I appreciate your friendship and no obligation is included. I think we all have much to learn on this topic, but it must still be an active choice.

  • I think everyone should have that choice, and that it should be available in this country.

  • but isnt it the same as going to a swiss clinic and ending it there while you can, with some dignity?

  • Well yes, and no. Of course it's painful, and I agree there is a far more intense pain when it's sudden, but for me at least it also reminds me of the reason for that feeling. My father died suddenly a long time ago, and while I would love to see him and know I never will which is sad, I can consult him, feel close to him, have a sense of him, not from any belief, but because he's so much part of me, so well known.

  • Indeed. Thank you Mark.

  • when someone dies the living also die

    in part as well,a piece of the structure is

    removed from us....i know we should treat

    death as the completely natural thing it is

    but it is very painful to bear especially when a loved one dies suddenly

  • My experience is that regrets I have heard expressed have been around what what not said, rather than what was. I guess there is a lesson in that. With kind regards, Mark.
