So we've just had another break and we were talking about what your preferences are for care when you need more looking after.
Palliative care.
Yes, more palliative care. Whether you would like to stay at home or go into hospital or some other place?
Home. Home's... I think home is the best place. You know, it's where you know. It's where you belong and at the end of the day, it's home, isn't it?
You were saying it would be easier for people to visit you.
Oh yeah. It's like, I don't like homes and hospitals, they are restricted. You can only go in at this day and you can only go in at that time, and you can only do this or that. People are then restricted how they get in and get out whereas here, at home, they can stay, they can park out the front, it doesn't matter what they do. You know? And it makes life so much easier for them and I want my friends and family round me. I don't want to be dying in a hospital or in a home where nobody can see me because at the end of the day it's what I want, I hope, you know. Hopefully it's not going to be much of a burden on somebody, me being at home dying you know.
Have you got any idea how the end bit might be, you said that it would be just like, almost like a turning the light off?
Yes, from what I understand it will just be like switching the lights off. I won't know nothing about it. I probably won't even get that much weaker, I might get weak but I don't know how far weak I'll get but it will be a case of just like shutting, shutting my eyes and that's it, I'm gone you know. |
