Yes I do agree with you, however, if I do stand a chance at life once again and they are standing over me with my family saying,...who wants to pull the plug, I hope wisdom would serve as rest restitution on my behalf from one of my loved ones knowing somewhere in the depths of their hearts that I may indeed still have time left. Its getting to easy now to just say...the meter is now expired...but then is the insurance up? see...been there done that...if your not up and moving along by the time the hospitals exhaust your insurance these days, they offer the alternative, a home, or un-plug...thats as far as hospitals go...until the insurance is up...I dont think it was like this years ago. They were merciful and caring, now its about the almighy dollar and whats left to offer of it.
Granted, life goes on...understandable, and again this is only if I actually appear to be able to kick back in...otherwise, yes the inevitable. Heaven sounds great to me...
