For anyone over 70, sudden death is the best way to go.
I have a neighbor who is 76 years old. Before he turned 70, he suffered from hypertension and hyperlipidemia, and had been taking antihypertensive drugs for more than 20 years.
After he turned 70, he suddenly stopped taking the antihypertensive drugs and even increased his physical activity. He progressed from brisk walking to jogging, and kept it up for an hour every day.
He would tell everyone he met that once you pass 70, you should push yourself a bit when exercising. Sudden death during exercise is a good thing—at least you don’t suffer, and you don’t become a burden to your family. That’s why he jogged for an hour every day; he said he would rather drop dead on the track than end up bedridden and paralyzed.
Sure enough, a month ago, this friend went out running alone. He suddenly had a myocardial infarction and died suddenly on the track.
It always seems like this kind of thing is a stroke of luck that you can’t seek out deliberately. Everyone wishes they could leave this world as cleanly and neatly as that.
For the elderly, sudden death is the best possible end to life. When you pass away this way, you don’t feel any pain or discomfort, you don’t suffer, and you don’t cause any trouble or financial burden to your family.
It seems that when you reach your seventies, you should eat heartily, live it up, exercise vigorously, take fewer medicines and seek less medical treatment. Just go with the flow, and accept whatever way life ends.
What do you all think—isn’t this a pretty good way to be?
