How will you die? (Page 2): Having had a double by-pass, and technically expiring on the operating table, I expect that heart problems will cause my demise. Just trying to put it off...

So true.... but what will "cause" your heart to stop? Suffocation? Or by doing something real dumb, like failing to eat right, exercise,
and getting regular health exams? One does not know the date or time of their deaths, one can only live as well as possible.

Having had a double by-pass, and technically expiring on the operating table, I expect that heart problems will cause my demise. Just trying to put it off for a while longer.

Good luck with that... I hope you continue to pester people on OPP for quite some time to come.

Until then, enjoy life...

I could not agree more. I have no fear the hereafter, I have a fear of the moment of death. I have a deep seated aversion to pain. My hope is that it is fast and if G*d is generous, perhaps it will be in my sleep.

That's not nearly as important as what happens to you after you die. And that is decided before you die.

And we want you to push that date as far into the future as you can and G*d provides. You are a favorite friend to many good people on OPP!

I look forward to heaven, but I'm so damned greedy I want to enjoy being here also.

The look in my friend's and family's eyes when they look at me is something I know I won't miss, but can't understand how I won't.

Well, I am not so sure heaven awaits me..... I think that I will spend my entire year in "hell" before I am allowed to go forward. Perhaps I will be one of the many who live on the outskirts of the New Jerusalem... which would be an interesting discussion. To be sure, I do not want to see anyone grieve for me... I just want to move along to my personal hell and get on with reviewing my un-repented sins.

The program is designed based on CDC deaths and the causes. Of course it can not rule out accidents, but if you live a normal life,
doing normal things, then the probability of death can be narrowed. It also does not take into consideration your current health or the longevity of your maternal blood line (mothers pass on genes for many things). This program, based on its narrowed parameters predicts that I have a snowballs chance of seeing 100.

I wonder, since the women on my mother's side of the family who died of natural causes all lived up into their nineties, more so than on my father's side. My own mother died in an accident when she was 60.
My maternal grandmother lived to be 96 and enjoyed extraordinarily good health up into her early nineties. I mean at ninety she was out in her garden, hilling up potatoes and hoeing corn.

There is a long line of many wishing to do me harm.....just not many takers as of yet, except the Wifey of course, only because she know how much life insurance I carry and can buy a newer model with it

Interesting perspective you have.

Mine: Hell isn't a place where we spend time until we're punished enough for our sins. Heaven and Hell are both "All or nothing". Jesus died for every sin you have or will commit. Admission to heaven is really nothing more than acknowledging His sacrifice.

Heaven isn't for the souls of people who lived perfect lives, or Jesus would be quite lonely. Heaven is for people who sinned and begged forgiveness.

I did the same with a triple by pass, but according to my cardiologist, my heart is currently far healthier than it was 15 years ago. Most of my family who died of natural causes, especially the women on my mother's side, lived way up into the high eighties and nineties. Being in my sixties now gives me a bit of pause.

It says cancer or circulatory. Since I've already had one heart attack, I'm guessing it will be circulatory. This is good news since I didn't feel a thing. I simply passed out. It will be an easy way to go. Probably in my sleep.

That's what mine suggested too..
I'm inclined to agree with it cardiovascular wise...
Stay healthy !!!

Not a pleasant way to start the day.... but, let's face it, everything dies. Admittedly this has been on my mind with a recent loss in the family and so I have turned rather morbid, but this too shall pass. Anyway, I found this very strange interactive web site and I am sharing it with you.... just for grins and not a prediction of your end or for that matter, mine. http://flowingdata.com/2016/01/19/how-you-will-die/

Pretty cool, Penny... I see how it factors things so I'd say it is in line with its suggestions...

Dying does not bother me as I know where the I'm going, I just don't want to help it along~~~
