I have been thinking of some of my patients lately and some of the posts I have been reading here and trying to decide what I would be willing to tolerate were I very ill or at the end of my life. What would each of us be willing to tolerate, knowing what we know?
I know that I could not live as a quad under any circumstances. I also cannot live with dementia. I do not ever want a feeding tube or dialysis. But perhaps I would be wrong, depending on the circumstances. What would you do? How far would you be willing to go to save your life?
