If you were told you have 6 months to live
 

How would you spend those six months?

Firstly, I am not sure I would want to know since actually being aware I am about to die is my big fear around death rather than dying itself. However, if I was told that, I think I would fly whoever in my family is still around to the UK and then travel as much as possible with them around the world with my savings until I couldn't any longer.

How about you?

First, I'd never log on to GFY again.

Second, I'd try to find the best innovative treatment and consult the best doctors worldwide.

If #2 failed, I'd spend time to the close ones, talk to some people, and then I guess I'd try to enjoy every moment.

i always swore i'd go on an assassination rampage and whack all the ppl i deemed to be guilty that the system failed @ getting them (ie OJ before the system got him back), Joran Van Der Sloot etc.

i will be watching weather forecast 24/7

Spend a lot of time with my family and friends :thumbsup

Spending your last 6 months in prison sounds great...unless its just the cock you're after really.

Here is an interesting story that I think is appropriate for this thread. My wife has a friend who's father one day went for a check up at hospital and was told that he had some form of cancer and had to begin quimo therapy immediately, and that his chances of survival were slim. This man, probably 60 years old or more by then, left the doctor's office and never returned. He lived to be more than 80 without ever seeing a doctor again.

That of course is not a resposible thing to do. But it does make you think.

As for the question, I don't know what I'd do. I'm sure I'd be miserable and wouldn't have a good time and I definitely wouldn't be able to enjoy any trips or anything. I would probably go on a vigilante killins spree. I'd target all scammers, corrupt politicians, thiefs, and rapists.... and try to take out as many as I can before I myself get killed. :) Fuck, I'd rather not think about these things.


PS: I was just reminded of that movie Joe versus the Volcano with Tom Hanks. It deals with this same subject and is actually very funny.

i would do all the shit

Obvioulsy I would not be taken alive. If I got a bullet left Im shooting it, and if I don't I'm picking up rocks or something lol

i, too, would not be subscribed to the 'taken alive' plan

Kind of defeats the purpose. lol

Nothin'... No matter how much you eat, travel, get laid and so on you won't remember a single thing when you die.

i replied to this thread....if you dont see me in like 7 hours send out a search party:helpme

Even if told you had 6 months to live, like fuck either of you could put a gun to your head and pull the trigger youve been watching to many films...

First of all, I would ban this thread as it relates to death issues

Not my head...

Hookers and Blow!

Now that sounds like a plan! :)

Yeah, enjoyable as it is I can't say I would like to spend that last days of my life reading 'would you hit it' threads.

Um..how is this a bannable thread?

While it's a great topic that opens the door to answers ranging from sweet to absurd it exposes a greater question as to why people would need a pending death to begin living life to the fullest.

Your life is always on a clock. You have a natural life span spread across four quarters of life. Childhood, young adult, middle age and elderly. You should move forward through life doing the best you can. Many experiences are age appropriate so you try and get as much done as you can before entering the next quarter of life. It's very hard to go backwards and forward is coming fast. Every day counts.

You have an expiration date. Why do you have to know the exact time before living life to the fullest.

hm i thought hey ill watch that but then i saw meg ryan is in it too, so ill pass

I would fly my family to the UK too :upsidedow

Seriously, I already treat it like that so I wouldnt' change a thing... I do what I want, when I want and how I want.

She actually wasn't in her full annoying mode in that film.

I'll stay withe the family and dear ones till the end...I guess,don't know for sure what I would do if that happened

if you had six months to live realistically your health would probably be fucked and you'd spend most of your time dealing with that, not living out some hollywood b-movie scenario.

i would take my last look around, make any amends i need to make, make sure those close to me know i love them and prepare myself for the great leap.

Not really 6 months is a long time, i think this thread is inspired by a celebrity in the UK who has cancer and using cancer as an example you would be more than able of travelling around the world and doing whatever for most of that 6 months.

Yeah indeed...and she is an annoying celeb at that but it has been interesting the conversations her public nature of dealing with her death has started around the country.

That is why I said I would do that until I couldn't any longer. I know you should live everyday like it is the last but the practical nature of having to save money to pay for your old age,etc keeps that from always being possible. If you know you aren't going to have that to save for I would find it easier to just spend.

I'll spend the days with my family and try to do unforgettable things with them. I'll do everything to cheer them up so when I reach the end of my day, they won't cry. I'll leave a smile to their faces instead of lonely hearts and sadness.

Spend as much time with my family and if healthy enough for it travel. I would also do my best to write down as much family history and stories so my kids would have it for the future.

I also would continue to fight, you never know when a miracle can happen

honestly i would not want to know. just take each day as it comes

I would spend one month at home with family & friends. And then I'd travel the world with them for the rest of my time.

You would be totally free of concern...what consequences would you be worried about if you had six months to live? The chaos and confusion I would cause would be absolutely legendary :winkwink:

1. I would fly over to the Uk.
2. Suck and fuck Sarah_MaxCash's toes.
3. Salad tossing would be on the menu as well.

:2 cents:

Hey, if you are willing to take the beating from the hubby enjoy.

If you were told you could die at any minute and probably sooner rather than later what would you do? Oh and if during that time there was the possiblity of extending your life with various medical procedures but only within a few minutes of an 'medical event' and you never know when a pain/sensation is a medical event or just normal body... what would you do?
Yea welcome to reality and not theory.

i'd just start walking

Will he be a piece of bread in the Sarah_MaxCash sandwich?
:glugglug

I would take all the hard drugs out there and have a happy 6 months

spend time with friends and family and run up all the credit cards lol

It wouldn't be my way but I can see why it might be the way others go.

I would sit in a room with no furniture, light, and NOTHING to do for the entire six months. People would have to bring me food and I would shit and piss all over myself

I'd do a few things I always wanted to. I'd make sure I had all my affairs in order so that my loved ones had nothing to do once I was gone.

Something I hate thinking about tho. Is this fuelled by the Jade Goody thing going on in the UK? She's an annoying bitch but entertaining at times. Such a shame for her two young kids who are about to lose their mum.

Firesale of my company, draft up a will and try to enjoy life to its fullest.
WG

I must have missed the part where she was entertaining. I'll agree about the annoying bitch part though...

I can not stand Jade and I hope that she isn't turned into some sort of icon when she dies. However, that said, the women I know that have suddenly booked in for smears since she went public can't be all a bad thing.

i'd spend it with the man i love, and do the things with him i've always wanted to do.

drink drug and hump avoid sleeping

I would spend all but the last day or two with my family. Then the last day or two you would all see on CNN.

50 Hookers and Blow!
