Loss

I don't fear death itself or the act of dying.I see it as just another stage of "The Great Plan".Being born implies dying.
It's the stage before death I fear the most.What if I get sick.Cancer.Or what if I loose my mind.Alzheimers disease.What if I'm run down by a car and end up in a never ending coma ?
That's why I am a supporter of euthanasia.I have yet to apply for the necessary documents, but when that time comes, I want to control the moment.I want to be fully aware of my own death.Unlike my mother, withered away in a hospital bed.An almost unrecognizable skeleton.The body ridden with cancer, filled with pain medication : Morphine, Palfium, Dipidolor...Diamethylmorphine.

Nobody, nobody escapes.Some people don't even see it coming.
Death is the great leveller, equal to all.In it, we recognize each other.
