You sometimes work out if you will still be here long enough to have grandchildren and great-grandchildren. If you will live long enough to see them happily settled when they are older. Well, I do anyway.

Death doesn't worry me in the slightest, I feel it's part of the cycle of life and No different to any other living thing I will simply cease to be. As they say in the song. 'the corn doesnt fear the reaper'. All I can do is try to live the best, kindest life I can and hope that for a while people will laugh about the memories we created together
I am now 83, and I do think of the act of dying, which worries me somewhat. My wife and I have no near relatives, no younger people, who could 'see to things' after the last of us dies. The act of dying does not worry me at all. What will be, will be, but, as I say, I worry about how our affairs will be tidied after the event.
I don’t feel afraid of being dead. It will just be as it was before I was born, for all those billions of years. No, that’s fine. It’s the years leading up to that that I’m worried about.
Although I’m not that too bothered about that, really. I’m planning on going for a long swim in the cold sea with a bottle of vodka. Bliss!

I think any sensible person would worry about the process. I do. I hope it will be quiet, calm and not painful or lingering.
I've had a year which has made me think a lot and makes me realise that I shall be fortunate to continue for 7 years. There's a lot I still want to do. I need to change tack and do it.
Apart from that I must, simply must, outlive Mr.J2. He's older than I and depends on me for a decent standard of life and apart from that he was widowed 30 years ago and I can't put him through that again.
I've done the legal stuff for the kids, but I would want to interfere/guide my grandchildren and help my daughter. I'll be frustrated if I can't and of course I won't be able to.
As a Christian, I expect my soul/being to continue - but not in a form which can relate to/influence life as it is on earth.
So, I have a lot to do and I don't want to die just yet, but accept it.
I can't see how this helps in any way, but it is offered. :)

Yes I do all the time and it is spoiling my life . There are things I want to do and places I want to go but frightened of dying when I am travelling or when I am away on holiday. I am scared the anxiety will cause heart problems worse but its absolutely ridiculous as I'm type 2 diabetic quite chubby eat loads of sugar but know that I'm risking my life that way but dont worry. I have made a lot of mistakes in my life and I maybe am scared that the afterlife will be bad. That is the one reason I dont kill myself. I often think about it but I might not be forgiven in the hereafter so I've just go to live a life with limits taking various pills to keep me alive and on the edge of sanity and travel within boundaries where I feel safe and when I feel safe 60 miles in the dark only.
Having a near death experience very recently and being asked if I would want to be resuscitated if I died I can honestly say I was totally calm at the thought of death. I said no. There was a strange peace which I can't explain. Just upset for my husband who was with me. I am much more worried now about having a long drawn out illness. I don't want to suffer. I don't want to go in a care home. I have never had a fear of dying. I don't have any religious beliefs. I was with both parents at their death and they both looked peaceful when the went.
Anyway husband has to put with me for a bit longer,poor man.
