What would be the worst possible way to die?

[Bikini Mod]

I've made excellent decisions.

My EF persona is a bit vile.

My profession is honorable, but I am not.

Aside from who I chose to marry when I was 22 every decision I've made was sound and honorable (that decision wasn't very sound but understandable based on the tools I was furnished - though I accept full responsibility - there was NO dishonor)... even when my decisions were less than sound, they were always about what I thought was best for others often to my own detriment.

Though I've been accused of a gaggle of things, I've NEVER committed an act that would dishonor my name, or the name of the family I belong to.

So I don't understand your original comments.

I have ALWAYS behaved with honor and integrity both online and in real time.

On a side note if I HAD TO choose between a death in dishonor or a death alone, I would choose dishonor. I would commit an act of dishonor in a heartbeat, without any thought to personal consequence if I thought my act would benefit someone who I loved and cared for... hell, according to many I already have so I have walked that walk. But to be utterly alone in the world with no one to love me without condition or care for ME, to leave this life without the notice of even one other human being - I couldn't bear that.

^^^ 100% honesty

Why does everyone seem to fear death? Is it not inevitable?

Not saying that I WANT to die. I DONT... still have a wholelotta things I have to accomplish before I go.

Is it the death that is feared or the percieved pain thereof?

Dying takes a while or not. I want all the sensation I can get no matter how long it takes. But once you are dead that's it. If your name is tarnished it will live on much longer and be impossible to get a "do over". Treat everyone as if they were important to you because as was said. "Treat everyone well on the way up, you never know how many of them you will see agin on the way down"

That is why I don't understand why people are so vile to one another, why they pretend to be something they are not. When I go to sleep at night I know what I have said and done are truthful and honorable. I don't have to worry about how BIG I looked to people on a chat forum or at the office.

Because every untruth that is told to bolster your own ego needs hundreds more just to stay ahead. I just don't get it. But then again I am old.

Anthing involving torture, pain and a length time. Also anything involving watchihg family members get tortured in front of you.

Ask people from the middle ages how horrible torture was. I laugh when fat renn faire idiots idolize torture and torture devices and the middle ages - a time when millions in europe suffered immensely. Let's see them try them out on themselves

Acute Hepatic Toxicity is a pretty miserable way to go.

Mt patient has that tonight, with an EF of 15%; he's only 48 too (alcohol is bad folks). They just tapped his belly and pulled 4500, and he's already distended. he just went into A-fib for me an hour ago and is now dropping his sats. Can't start cardizem gtt due to hypotension. Gotta go, will be talking the resident into intubation

Being eaten by a predator has got to be pretty rough.

I would hate to be trapped in a collasped building with my legs pinned so you could move your arms around but no possible way to dig or other wise get yourself unpinned. Just be stuck there for days until the lack of water kills you.

On the bright side you would always have hope someone might dig you out.

I saw a TV special on this once (don't ask).

Guess what researchers found to be the MOST torturing way to die humanly possible.

Guess.

Losing sight, sound, touch, feel, all senses. But you're still alive and kept alive for years and years but you're conscious. Your mind would literally go insane from screaming 'kill me' over and over again all day. I think a couple movies were made about this.

Intubated on PRVC at 100% and on propofol drip, two rounds of digoxin got him back into sinus rhythm. Still running pressures with mean <60 and SBP <80, and stopped making urine since he has stopped profusing. I see a levophed drip in the future.
