Hi all,
I apologize for the shortness of this diary, perhaps the other longer ones I've written in the past can 'be applied' to this one.
This is not really a place/time for me to do anything other then to learn from all of you -- from your wisdom and experiences.
I am not asking for anything other then what you would do, or have done, or are doing.
If you were to be diagnosed with a condition that would not improve, that over time will destroy who you are at your core -- your brain, your cognition, your essence (whatever work you want to use).
You were then placed on a treatment, the actual treatment itself does not really matter, just assume for sake of discussion, that you were given some form of treatment. It stopped the progression and is now giving you clarity and energy. you know that the treatment is no cure, that eventually it will stop being enough and the downward journey will begin again.
If you were, in a way, living
So I ask, what you would do? Flowers for Algernon?
v2 Thanks everyone. I guess what I am trying to see is not just the end of death, but of cognitive 'nothingness' or whatever the best word would be, above and beyond death itself.
