I’m with Tom 100% on this. I am terrified of dying in my sleep. I want to know I’m dying so I can process and accept it. I want to say goodbye to my kids, not have them find my corpse.

Years ago, my mom's best friend's husband learned he had inoperable brain cancer. They said he had about a year to live. Their kids at the time were middle/high school age. They pulled the kids out of school for a year, and went on a lot of memory-making trips. I specifically remember they went to Hawaii for a couple weeks. I'm sure that experience helped them all, and those memories live with the kids for the rest of their lives.

As for me, I just hope I'm conscious when it's my time to go. I'm appreciative of everything human, and that includes death. I don't want it to happen for decades yet, of course, but when it comes, I want to be aware as it's happening.

I was really conflicted on this. On the one hand, there was the message of not caring what people think and doing what you want to do and having all of these incredible experiences while you still can and not letting work get in the way. But on the other hand, most people have to work and plan with the expectation that they're going to live the full 80, 90, 100 years -- it's not feasible to blow all one's money in a few short years. Also, it's not feasible for the world's economy for everyone to do this; to be able to have an amazing trip to that amazing place, some poor schmuck has to be the one driving the taxi and manning the front desk at the hotel and what not. In a way, I see what that person meant when they said that a terminal diagnosis is, in its way, a bit of a blessing in that it focuses priorities into a small window. But yeah, otherwise...weird system we've made for ourselves here. (Edit: The guys touched on the same idea later in the episode.)
