One week to live.
You're told you have one week to live, you're fine otherwise, capable of functioning normally. What do you do?
Do you tell anyone? Do you try to knock things off your bucket list? Discuss. |
I would probably be thrown into a crazed downward spiral of denial.
I'd say goodbye to my family in a kind of -I'm going away on holiday, i'll see you soon but if something happens just know I love you loads- way and skulk off somewhere to die in peace. |
I would start committing crimes of all kinds.
Really. I'd probably also kill people. Because I wouldn't have to worry about the future anymore. It wouldn't matter what I did, so I might as well do something I've always wanted to do. XD |
If I had a week to live, yeah I'd do everything I possibly can. I mean at first I'd be in some crazy denial and a bit of depression, but that would probably only last 2-5 hours.
I'd travel everywhere (if I could afford it). I'd try new foods, I'd have new experiences, I'd try things I was to terrified of before to do (I'm ganna die in a week so whats the worst that can happen). I'd make sure everyone knew how I felt about them, and I'd write a will, and make sure that all my affairs would be taken care of. |
I would take out loans and credit cards and take my family out and travel and do all sorts of fun things that made my daughter and husband happy. Maybe... I don't know if they would have that debt passed onto them afterwards. If so, then I would definitely NOT do those things lol I would certainly though, no matter what I could afford to do, spend every second of it with my beautiful daughter. I would probably cry a lot, throughout the entire week. And I would tell my husband and mother only, most likely.

Clearly a better idea. Add that to the end of my saying goodbye stuff. I'd go on some huge rampage! |
I would tick as many of these bad boys off as I could. :3

@Cassette: Think i've done a whole five of the things in that list, go me. |
@Cassette:
I've done 14 things on your list -.-' wow am I ever a dork |
I've done none of them yet. ;O; I want to start it soon though! A guy I knew that was only a few years older than me died the other day, which was a bit of a shock. So I want to get started. xD
|
I'd worry about others having to pay my bills and any debts, and clear out my flat. I'd probably spend the week emptying my flat so my family didn't have to ><
|
I would likely be torn between telling my loved ones or hiding it from them. I mean, in one way they would know so it won't be a big shock... But if they know, then they're going to be sad (I hope!) and I would want everyone to be happy. Bills and the expense of my death would be another top concern of mine. I don't want to leave my family in any form of debt over me. :( But overall, I would spend more time with my family.
|
I would be spending more time with my family and the people I love, and then probably go on an airplane the day of my death, because I've always wanted to die in the sky. :D
Cassette: Wow...O_O I've done 39 things on that huge list of yours :XD |
Spend a day or two with my family. Fly overseas to my husband. Just live those last moments with him and that's it.
I'd tell them. |
I would go see my friends. And I would try to express my love for them.
|
I would probably spend some time with my friends and family. But I would also draw a lot, to make time go fast.

I would eat lots of really good food then spend a lot of time with family, my friends, and just try to make everything as stress free as possible.
|
I wouldn't say a thing to anyone.
Continue as things are and write my will-leaving nothing worth value to my mother probably. Let her have my clothes and shoes since she steals them anyway. |
I definitely wouldn't tell anyone. Because if you did your last week on earth would be spent surrounded by weeping and wailing and misery and it would be horrible. Far better to have some fun times instead and give your friends and family a new happy memory to remember you by. Once you'd gone they'd appreciate that far more. Especially if you left "to be read after my death" stuff that explained that to them.
|
Nothing, nothing at all. There is not one thing that I want to do that I could possibly do in a under a week or less, everything I want to do will take much longer then that. Very much longer. So, yea, there's no reason to get started on a list that most likely won't see anything scratched off.
I also wouldn't tell anyone either. I much rather go in peace without anyone knowing that I HAD a week left because I know there would be certain people that would try to get me to find a way to live longer then a week. Even if that WERE possible, the last thing I would want to do with my remaining week on this planet is spend it in doctors offices and under a microscope. |
I can imagine me being the one doing a lot of crazy stunts I'd never been able to do before (save the most dangerous for last days).
If I didn't have a budget to stick to, I can imagine lots of things though, I'd wanna do. =D + Bungee jump, parachute, travel (as much as I could in a week), confess my love to someone (anyone), spend time with family, and try SEX! Don't particularily wanna stay a virgin for all of eternity. Y'know? Might as well get it done with while I'm alive and still can LOL ; D And despite everything, and knowing people would treat me differently had they known I was dying.. I would tell everyone I could. I wouldn't want them to be surprised, and half my family wouldn't be able to spend any time with me otherwise. So yeah. That's just me. |
i will ride many more roller coasters, and hope that at the time of my death, im on one, and that i die smiling :D
|
I'll meet my crush. >>
