Hello.
I have had CFS for along time which was mild at first and now pretty bad that i am in bed for most of the day.
One thing that has been bothering me, is thoughts of the future. I see healthy happy people come down with cancer, heart attacks etc. I am chronically ill, so the chances are that this will happen to me in the future.
I am terrified of losing my dignity, and ending up pinned to a hospital bed as a nurse wipes my backside.
If only if the government permitted an exit button for the worst case scenario. For example you have a stroke and end up severely disabled with 0% quality of life. If such a button was real i could live everyday to the best of my ability with no anxiety or fear.
Does anyone else have this fear? I do not want to suffer unbearably for months/years followed by a slow gruesome death. Right now i am OK and feel stable, but i can only imagine that it will get worse over time. Especially since healthy people suddenly get MS etc. I have brainfog 24/7 so the odds are against me.
Thanks
