Besides, I am extremely superstitious, sufficiently so to respect medicine, anyway (I am well-educated enough not to be superstitious, but I am superstitious). No, I refuse to consult a doctor from spite. That you probably will not understand. Well, I understand it, though. Of course, I can't explain who it is precisely that I am mortifying in this case by my spite: I am perfectly well aware that I cannot "pay out" the doctors by not consulting them; I know better than anyone that by all this I am only injuring myself and no one else. But still, if I don't consult a doctor it is from spite. My liver is bad, well--let it get worse!
How are you? π

The post that was quoted here has been removedThat's debatable pending subject. But liver failure is the most distressing self inflicted measure of death I have experienced. The patient may have assumed petrol consumption with a match in their stomach (it would have been better and quicker with that implosion!). But it lasts longer than that possible pain. It is bleeding from every orrafice and organ failure after organ failure in order, until the brain cuts out and fails.. but fights and endures the pain until we just overdose the patient with morphine..... which mixes internally and causes more burning...hence complete shutdown. Worst possible death is liver failure, I'd sooner burn to death or drown..... no pain!
