A quotation from Bertrand Russell
A man may feel so completely thwarted that he seeks no form of satisfaction, but only distraction and oblivion. He then becomes a devotee of “pleasure.” That is to say, he seeks to make life bearable by becoming less alive. Drunkenness, for example, is temporary suicide: the happiness that it brings is merely negative, a momentary cessation of unhappiness.Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher
Conquest of Happiness, Part 1, ch. 1 “What Makes People Unhappy?” (1930)

Leur cancer a une mutation génétique bien plus grave que celui des vieux comme le mien, le leur est incurable, c'est #chimio #palliative directe et mort en 6 mois à 1 an.
With #aging, we begin to think about things that seemed far-off and even improbable earlier in life. We get flooded with advice for retirement planning, how to sign up for Medicare and Social Security, and perhaps proper estate planning. We hear a lot less about preparing for end-of-life decisions and #palliative care, including #hospice and much more. Wise & Well's newest writer, a Mayo doctor, has you covered. https://medium.com/wise-well/when-your-time-comes-lessons-from-jimmy-carters-hospice-decision-ed5f4882f8a1 #health #life and #death
