Is This My Last Ferry Trip?

Is this the last time I’ll admire the guys in their neon-yellow slickers, guiding us to our parking spots before we head up two flights to the passenger deck, to the cafeteria where a man in a black derby and black suspenders nods and smiles as he nibbles popcorn?

You can’t be an instant professional at living with MS

Getting used to living with MS is like trying to cook in a kitchen that's unfamiliar, columnist Ben Hofmeister writes.

Now that the Assisted Dying Bill here in the UK has passed the first hurdle in the line to becoming legal, I have to say I think it's being rushed, and there needs to be a firm legal and medical framework put in place before assisted dying becomes law. Certainly our National Health Service as of now, is not equipped for a change as big as this. There also needs to be 100% watertight legal protection for vulnerable people who could be coerced into euthanasia. It needs more thought, though I absolutely do agree with the principle.

Assisted dying bill passes after vote, paving the way for historic change

The most significant Commons vote on social policy since abortion was legalised in the 1960s has seen MPs agree to the principle of the state assisting in people’s deaths for the first time

I'd encourage everyone to assemble a spreadsheet of accounts, insurance policies, subscriptions, etc., and get wills and power of attorney sorted out (these take months). Put together an In Case of Emergency envelope with passwords and phone login, for use by a loved one in case you're out of commission. This makes picking up the pieces much easier.

Pondering #EndOfLife matters #death #dying #cancer #TerminalIllness and how some folk are massively organised and some really never think about things until it's too late. A friend had major surgery yesterday and biopsy and other tests may or may not prove she has something especially grim. She has spent the last few weeks sorting her finances and whilst she hopes none of this is needed for a while, was relieved to get her affairs in order for partner and daughter. Another friend died last week and he went downhill very fast. He was not scared of dying, had no family, lived a very simple life and died in a nursing home. I tried to get him to think about all this sort of thing but he was too ill. So.. I spent an odd lunchtime with a woman from social services starting to go through his meagre possessions. Felt oddly intrusive but also profoundly moving to see what he valued.

"Thank you to those who have donated.

Sadly, I have been told that I must go to hospice. My heart efficiency has crashed and the tests show that fixing the issues are not feasible. I have accepted my fate and I am just going to try to enjoy my time that I have left.

Thanks to a nonprofit and Medicaid the majority of my hospice bill has been paid. However, I am responsible for a $2000 copay. I haven’t been able to work for the past month and so I don’t have the money to pay it, so any amount you can help me with will be appreciated. If there is any extra, it will go towards funeral expenses. Thank you for everything. Don’t be sad, it’s just the start of a new journey"

Any bit helps! I want him to be able to have peace and for his children to also have peace of mind in his past days.

Thank you so much for the shares and donations 💜🌻
