Death - what a relief!

Now don't get me wrong. I'm not suicidal or anything. I'm merely examining a perspective.

Ed and I just watched a special on the 1918 influenza pandemic and something occurred to me. When I was SO sick, it would have been quite easy and probably painless to die.

Think about it. Most of us have been sick.... very sick.... at some point in our lives. We've been sick enough to have lost track of time... to have slept for hours. To wander in and out of consciousness.

I know for a fact that I've been unconscious immediately after motorcycle accidents....

So the question is: If you're already unconscious, is it so hard to die? It's just a question.
