Re: Terry Pratchett: Choosing To Die
I once watched a programme about human longevity.
All the people were at least centenarians.
One lady was a 110.
She was smart, looked as fit as a flea, and still went out everyday by herself to her favourite restaurant in Brighton.
She said she'd 'lived too long', and everyone she had loved had gone.
It was really shocking, and hard to hear.
Most would have labelled her as being lucky.
I suppose life's quality isn't always down to the purely physical.
