Ain't THAT the truth! LOL!

I would agree, I think DNR is the choice for me (In Oz we say NFR) I'm only 36 and have no desire to leave this life, but I do have a strong faith, and KNOW where I'm going when I leave this body. I have no wish to linger on in a vegetative state, or be chained on a life-support machine. Why pull out all the stops to hold on to a life here when it's time to go home? Death is not the end, its the beginning of the next stage of our existence, where we can be with Abba Father and praise Him all day. I'm not eager to go, but I'm not willing to hang on here for ever, either.

When it's time, let me go.

Otherwise, I have so much to do and achieve here, and I'll give it my best shot, God-willing.

Agreed 100%. First, let me achieve all that I have been placed on earth to do. Let me not leave this earth too early nor too late. I too know who my God is: He is also my Abba Father. Let me also go and praise Him all day, when it is time.
