We see it over and over again when a famous person dies usually. The TV news and talk shows and even some of the radio talk shows will trot out the experts that list all of the reasons that led up to the death. Why can't it simply be that it was the person's time to die? I believe that when it's your time no amount of effort and life-saving applications will prevent it. Do you believe this to be true? I know that in the case of accidents life-saving techniques can be very helpful, but this is different. That is why I also feel strongly that many of the tests we are urged to undergo are just a waste of time. Most of you have probably heard the one about the person who has just walked out of the doctor's office with a clean bill of health only to drop dead of a heart attack. What is your opinion?

Yes. I believe this to be true also. A person cannot choose when it is time to go. When the lord calls us home, it is the time for us. A little baby had a clean bill of health from their doctor also and five minutes later, when it got home with its mother, it stopped breathing and died. It was one of my sisters friends baby. I think alot of people think they feel good and in a second they are gone. My dad had no clue either. We went to bed and he had a massive coronary heart attack while watching tv right after that and died instantly.

No matter how we try, we cannot predict what is going on inside our body. We are fearfully and wonderfully made.

I share your feelings, stephcjh, and only wish they would stop trying to rationalize each and every sudden death that happens to a famous person. These deaths occur all the time to ordinary people and are considered just a fact of life.

I find some tests helpful, and have gotten some of them free in the last two years. Bone density, cholesterol,triglycerides, blood sugars. I have a blood pressure monitor that I can use at home. Yes, there are some unforseen cases, and unforseen deaths. I have no intention of trying so hard to save my life that I lose the quality of life. I want to do what I can to be healthy, though. There have been some tests I have refused.

That's interesting, GG, and I would like to know which tests you have refused. I firmly believe that in some instances no amount of testing and life-saving techniques in the world are of any help.

Hello Friend,
Its my opinion that no matter where you are (even a hospital), and no matter what you are doing, no matter how well you are living, when its your time to go, nobody and nothing can stop it....well nothing short of a miracle that is.


myLot reputation of 97/100. worldwise1 (5360)   ranked 13 out of 11,719 in questions & answers  7 months ago

I couldn't agree with you more, jer!

I think they should just let them be. It is an invasion of their privacy. Let them rest in peace.


myLot reputation of 97/100. worldwise1 (5360)   ranked 13 out of 11,719 in questions & answers  7 months ago

They have very little regard for the family in these situations, Thoroughrob, only seeking to boost their ratings.

a normal person don't want to die, and if he does, his family won't. that's one of the reasons why doctors get paid with high amount and really go richer each day. no matter how poor a person is, if he got sick, he would always find money for his medication. it is a person's instinct to fight for his life and not even illness could stop him from doing so. people with serious sickness like cancer, though hopeless, will try to find way to just lengthen his life if there's no way to stop death from coming, at least he's delaying it.
