I've thought about it a lot. I want to die while I'm still enjoying life. So I can say goodbye to family and have them remember the person I was, not the shadow I became.

Guessing that ship has probably sailed.

Let's hope you don't get the diagnosis in the afternoon then - the goodbyes might be a bit rushed otherwise

Yeah same day might be a bit excessive, come to think of it. Probably give it a week or so to set up a get together. Like a "living funeral" or something.

And on it goes. Nephew really wants to say goodbye but has to finish studying for finals so a week turns into a month. For those who enjoy life, these decisions are easy in theory just like losing weight. And much harder than imagined when attempted to carry out.
