I got to see what it was like at the end for my grampa today. While I like the idea of “going out on your own terms”, this was something else. Everything was filthy. Evidence of rodents was everywhere. The conditions that the strongest man I’ve ever known was living in made me sick to look at. I’m aware that he wasn’t a perfect person, but I as his grandchild, only ever knew kindness from him. It’s to late now, and the end comes to us all eventually. Everything we build will be reclaimed by nature. Grampa was a union worker, and his union pension would have allowed him and my grandma to live a healthy lifestyle right up to the end. There was more than enough money for someone to have been cleaning weekly, and yet that wasn’t happening. There was more than enough money to have someone coming to check on him daily to see if he was ok and to clean up. I’m fond of the notion of karma. Some people have a lot of bad karma coming for them.
