Don't be one of those IDIOT people who see frail elderly folks at a nursing home and say, I'm not going to let that happen to me! As if the people they are looking at once said "I can't wait to be old and helpless with drool coming out of my mouth! Yippee!"
When I press one of these stupid people about what THEIR PLAN is to avoid becoming feeble, they usually say something even more stupid like, "I told everyone to just put a pillow on my face if I ever get like that!" Really, Idiot? So your children should MURDER you? Sounds like a plan!
Recently someone told me he has it all planned out (this is true) that he will SHOOT himself in the head if he gets 'that way'. He told his son his plan too. This smug donkey was so sure HE would never suffer like his father with Alzheimer's Disease in the nursing home. I asked him what the plan is if he has a STROKE or CAR ACCIDENT tomorrow and can't move a muscle. He didn't have a plan for that.
If you want to kill yourself RIGHT NOW, I suppose you could avoid getting old or becoming disabled. Other than that, spend your time visiting people in a nursing home, talking to them, being kind to them and treating them as you would like to be treated should you one day find yourself in the same position. Vote for people who care about the elderly. Find ways to make old age better for people, even those still living in their own homes. And, if you're lucky, karma will say THANK YOU.
