To: Hildy
You don't know what you're talking about. Have you ever watched someone die?

That's priceless, Hildy! I don't know what I'm talking about?! Are you coming unglued or something?

Before I answer your question, I would like to inform you that I've seen you ask posters on other threads really bizarre personal questions, like whether they are single or married, if they have ever had any experience with something or another. You insinuate that the other poster is daft, because their experience is different from your own. Here's news for you, Hildy. Everyone has different life experiences that shape who they are as a person and the choices they make. We are each different, and to think that one form of experience is *better* than another is untrue. The experiences are simply different.

So here's the answer to your very inappropriate personal question of me: YES! YES! Yes, I have watched people die! More than once. They are very private personal matters to me, as I'm sure they are to anybody who witnesses the death process.

Hey, just to float your boat, I've also witnessed animals in the throes of the death process, too. Whether it is a person dying or an animal dying, it is a heart-wrenching experience, where I wanted to do everything I could to comfort the person/animal I was with. Giving comfort to the dying is something any compassionate person would do.

So inquiring minds want to know, Hildy. WTH do my life experiences have to do with this? I don't know if all cases of people dying are the same, I would expect not. The people that I watched die, that I was with, and cared for, for days as they died, YES, those people thirsted for water, ached for pain relief, begged for comfort, and yearned for love. And they got it, whenever they wanted it, from me or those who were with me attending to their needs.

Are you satisfied with what I know, Hildy? Try telling me again that I don't know what I'm talking about! I would love to have a simple apology from you on this point alone, Hildy. I promise not to taunt you with it if you ever can say you were wrong this time. And since you questioned me publicly, a private apology will not do.

Poor Hildy. It may be best for everyone to ignore her. Her comments make no sense and she supports euthanasia.
