Mine as well. I deal with big industrial stuff which involves nitrogen lines often. Making a leak at a site would be pretty easy. Looks like an accident and my family gets a few million.
Your family would rather have you.
Maybe so but I am not going to spend years rotting from bed sores while some underpaid staff punish me for complaining by leaving my diaper on.
My wife is a nurse and quit her old employer the night she had to give a statement to the police about how one of the aids beat a dementia patient out of revenge . Who was a different CNA one that quite literally walked over a patient who had fallen out of bed because "it is my lunch break".
Nope. Not doing it. I gave up almost everything for my family they don't have the right to demand that I cling to a life with zero quality.
My dad is dying of dementia right now, not saying you have to ride that out. I'm saying you owe yourself and your family the time between retirement and sharp decline.
I am sorry you are enduring that and frankly I don't want to argue about my last wishes with someone who is enduring the misery you must be. No offense but I enjoy looking at myself in the mirror.
Be well, your point is taken and I will consider it.
Again, I would understand if someone wanted to end it before serious decline set in. Just not just in case before retirement to get my family some money. Because again, if there's real quality time to be had with someone who's still definitely your father/husband as opposed to a shell with a bit of them left inside. Then they'd rather have that than the money. I wouldn't judge anyone for sparing themselves that latter stage though, I have no idea what I will do if that choice comes to me.
