.. call a turn on a man

I've no idea what that's supposed to mean.
My comment was generic in re the thread title.

And I doubt that what's left of my mind is any lighter or darker than most.

Regardless, no offense intended . . .

"you won’t live through it anyway"

Seems pretty clear to me.

Maybe I will maybe I won't live through it, but I'm not ready to give up nor call the turn on myself or anyone else on if they will or will not make it. Chance favors the prepared mind and so I prepare.
