Where would you choose to take your last breath ?

I would like to be sunbathing on a beach, totally relaxed, the heat of the sun on my back, the last thing I heard would be the waves lapping .....

Where would you chose to take your last breath ?
 

In my bed, I would like to drift off to sleep after a quiet evening enjoying good conversation, a nice meal and a few drinks with an old friend.

"And surely ye’ll be your pint’ stoup,
And surely I’ll be mine.
And we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet
For auld lang syne!"
 
I plan on getting shot in the back, while in a prone position, by a jealous husband :cool:


jk, of course.
 

In bed surrounded by family....drugged enough to not feel pain or fear but not totally out of it either.

I wonder if there is that perfect combination of drugs. :)

All I know is that I don’t want to be in pain, fear, or sad.
 
Davy Jones' Locker would be nice, since I love the ocean so much. But in a shocking twist of fate, I shall not drown, instead I will sprout gills, and swim off into the deep dreamy blue depths with mermaid Daryl Hannah.
 
Some folks have said that they'd like to die surrounded by family or with their husband or wife by their side, not me......I'd much rather be sitting in a 'waiting room' and have the doctor come out and say, "she just passed peacefully".

I've actually been beside two men as they took their last breath and it's something that I'll never forget as long as I live and they weren't even that close to me.....now multiply that feeling by 1000% and I know that it would be extremely hard / gut wrenching for me to sit beside mama and actually watch her take her last breath of air as I'm sure it would be for her also.

Now excuse me while I get up and go pour another cup of coffee and clear my head, just sitting here thinking about it puts a lump in my throat.

Youre right! I watched my husband die and it was gut wrenching. Don’t want that for me kids. So I just want to die in my sleep or if I have cancer etc...then drugged up.
 
I saw my grandfather, my grandmother, and my dad dying. It's horrible. There is no place I want to draw my last breath. I'd rather be taken by surprise like I was last year when I nearly choked to death on a vitamin pill. Wouldn't that have been ironic? It's not where you die or how, it's what you leave behind.... I just find no peace on the subject of death. Nothing makes it palatable.
 
I want to go with a quickness but if it drags I want to be in the arms of my man. I'm not sure I could handle the rest of the family, only because I couldn't stand the pain they were feeling. My man and me we know how much better off we will be once we're gone.
 
On second thoughts, do you recall the end of the film "Dr. Strangelove"? The pilot, on trying to release the atomic bomb, ended up riding it down to his, and the world's end. Now, that's a way to go. I can think of a few people I'd like to drop a bomb on.
 
I had a think about this...and I'll be sat on the beach,playing my guitar in the peaceful surroundings of sun,sea & quacking ducks.
Just getting to the good bit,with the chord-changes and...my head flops forward and I wake up in Heaven alongside Buddy Holly,Jimi Hendrix & Buddy Holly.
As it's Heaven,we ALL have our guitars to hand,plugged into large stacks-and we just get rockin'!
