[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My FIL has advanced Parkinson’s. We do what we can to make sure his home is safe. He and my MIL live 2 miles from us and will not give up their home. FIL is very, very unsteady on his feet. Has difficult speaking and swallowing. And also has a serious heart condition plus leukemia. He plays 18 holes of golf three times a week. [b]We have just accepted that he’ll die on the golf course doing what he loves.[/b] There are worse ways to go. [/quote] I have a friend that died on the golf course and I consider that to be the BEST way to go.[/quote] My SIl’s retired 80 yr uncle went down to Florida with his buddies, played 18 rounds of golf and then went out to lunch, great food, wine w/friends. Got hit by a car crossing the street after lunch. Dead instantly. I always thought THAT’s the way to go:). The 88 yr old who died skiing is pretty cool too. [/quote]
