50 here. The thought of dying has become a frequent visitor lately. My parents are nearing their ends and I recently lost a friend to a sudden heart attack so I have been preoccupied with it.
I don't think it the idea of being dead that has me concerned but more to do with the process of dying. My dad is in early Alzheimers and has shown so much class and dignity throughout his life and this has carried through to his impending death.
The thought of stroking out and being incapacitated for years or being demented is very disturbing.
My wife and I had a late life surprise baby so my goal is to see her through to 40. A poster above estimated that he had 25 summers left, when you put numbers on it in that manner it is pretty sobering.
Get out and get living indeed.
