Life Support or Pull the Plug

So what would it be for you?

Would you want to be on life support, or would you rather they pull the plug?

 

If you knock and no one answers, then no one's home...and you can then burn the fucker down...or something like that

 

fukkin yank the plug,,, dont even bother pluggin it in to begin with,,,, i dont believe in that sorta life prolonging bullshit... not for children either,,, may seem harsh in some pples world but personally i dont feel that is what we were intended to do and is alot of what contributes to the downward spiral to this world we live in

 

whats the point of being on life support if you cant do anything and thats the way youll live the rest of your short life? pull the god damn plug.

 

pull the dam plug

i hope i die before i get old anyways....not looking forward to days where you wait around for death. so give it to me while the party's still good

 

"hope i die before i get old...talkin bout my generation... "

 

If there's no chance of recovery (permanently brain damaged, etc), then pull it. If, however, there's a chance of recovery (coma, but not like a three year long coma), then... wait until the chances are like, under 20% or so, of having a normal life.

 

I have to agree with ihmurria (cute pic, BTW). IF there's no chance of recovery and the person is braindead, then of course pull the plug. But if there's any chance of recovery, then that person should be given that chance.

 

Pull the plug.

While I love life and living, I do not want quantity without quality.

 

pull it....

 

How long we talkin here? If I've been in a coma for an afternoon, hell yes I wanna be on life support.

But if I'm just wasting away for months and months, then I suppose it'd be for the best.

 

Well heres a thought.

Don't you just fucking hate it when someone wakes you from a pleasant dream? What if all you had left in 'life' was a few months of dreams? Would you want a relative to pull the plug because you can't socialise with them?

 

most likely, i would say pull the plug. but if theres a possibility that i will be able to function again, then i'd wanna say not to pull the plug. but then theres always a cut off point and depending on the injury...so i say not to pull the plug under 1 year and no more than 5 years on life support.

 

pull the plug, that way i can be re-encarnated as something else..............

 

Anything in particular in mind?

 

i voted dont pull the plug.. cause at my age i wouldnt want it pulled. of course there is a limit too but there are only two choices.

 

I've been in that situation with a loved one where we kept her on life support a little while...In my opinion, it was a mistake. She was in a coma, completely unresponsive. So if the same happens to me, I don't wanna lie there in a coma indefinitely. It's harder on the family too.

 

What if a person has a stroke and has their mind left, but but no body? I would not want to be trapped in my head for however many years I might live on life support. Knowing everything, but unable to speak or communicate in any way.

 

I would say wait a week to see if a miracle would happen and then pull it. If I'm not showing any brain activity or I'm going to be a vegatable, spare me the pain.

 

definitely pull the plug
