| Live or die naturally For whatever reason you are living in constant nagging pain that will never go away, most likely will only get worse as time goes on. Add to that a slight disability that keeps you from doing many of the things that others do for enjoyment. To sum it up, you are essentially going through the motions but in the end nothing will change or get better. now you find out that you have yet another issue that has surfaced, and either Surgery and/or lifetime medications will be needed or you can pretty much forget making it another year. what do you do.

| This is hard to answer. I would say it's dependent on the person's age and self-perceived quality of life.

| After witnessing the miracle of new technology in regards to surgery, I'd say go for it.

| Don't know which one to pick. I would go with meds first and see where that goes. If the meds don't cut it on their own and surgery is needed, cut me Mack. Then again, if it's time, it's time. I would like to see as many more days as possible though. I think we are all greedy when it comes to that.
