关于生命质量
我本人要的是生命质量,不能享受生活就没有生命质量。
比如老年痴呆晚期长期用呼吸机癌症晚期剧烈痛疼等等,我不会苟且人世。
我和老公儿子同事都说过这个观点,假如哪天突然病倒脑子不行做不了主,我的医疗决定就是DNR。
我公婆生前的遗嘱是:comfort care only,我父母生前也这么说还立过遗嘱(怕糊涂了改口),我哥嫂也这么说,我嫂子更绝,说哪天我哥走了,她也淹死,因为她不想成为子女的负担。
我妈生前则说,假如哪天老爸死了,她会好好的活着:)假如她先走,她会小跑,绝不回头,把老父亲丢的远远的,她真的跑了3年才让老父亲走:)看得出来夫妻感情不怎么样哈。我妈一辈子不麻烦人,大面积心梗过世也没受苦,我爸过世前2个月摔了才不能自理。
很多西人老人都是DNR,医院里不少癌症晚期的病人也是,这个和很多国内人的想法不一样。
遗嘱要趁清醒的时候写,因为老了糊涂了就不记得以前怎么想的,好死不如赖活着是动物的本能,我爸开始糊涂的2年天天吵着要住院,有时自己走到医院去,医生打电话要我哥去接回家.
能享受生活的时候好好享受生活,不枉来人世一趟,记得30多岁的时候,我爸就跟我这么说过。
假如我被诊断晚期癌症转移还不影响出行的话,我会像“bucket list”电影里2位男主角做的那样,出去浪。
喜欢 george carlin 写的:
life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "holy shit, what a ride!"
更喜欢他写的这个:
The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends, I mean, life is tough. it takes up a lot of your time. what do you get at the end of it? A Death! What is that, a bonus?
I think the life cycle is all backwards. you should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. you get kicked out when you are too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. you work forty years until you are young enough to enjoy your retirement. you do drugs, alcohol, you party, you get ready for high school. you go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating......and you finish off as an orgasm!
