Sommige mense suffer in silence, ander glad nie. Sommiges rumoer en brand en gooi klippe.

Dan is daar die wat die opstand liggies wys. Skerp en sarkasties, maar liggies …

gatvol

Menz is een van daai …

Imagine:

jy en jou vrou gaan op ‘n 18 dag 5 lande toer. En op dag 14 word sy siek. Nie sommer enige siekte nie, Central nervous system vasculitis.

“Dit is ‘n inflammasie van die brein wat al die klein aartjies in die brein toedruk . Die groot are is oop. Dit het vinnig versprei en reeds die grootste deel van haar brein aangetas. Dit kan net met groot hoeveelhede kortisoon en ander anti-inflamatoriese middels beveg word. Hulle dit doen nou, maar die prognose is nie goed nie. Haar lewe hang aan ‘n draadjie en die kans op ‘n sinvolle lewe aan nog ‘n dunner draadjie.”

En vier dae later moet jy vra:

einde

Want daar is nie meer hoop nie. Daar is nie meer kans om herstel nie. Dis oor, dis nog net die slottoneel wat moet afspeel. En jy moet vra vir krag en die einde tegelykertyd. Want om die lyding verlig te sien en afskeid te neem, is veel makliker as om jou geliefde te sien ly.

Want so is die liefde.

Hopelik hoef niemand van ons hierdie lyding deur te struggle nie. Hopelik hoef niemand van ons te sit en wag by ‘n bed dag na nag na dag na nag nie.

Hopelik kom die einde gou, is al wat ek kan dink. Vir hom en haar. Want die dood is nie finaal nie, dis net vir nou. Maar die seer bly tot jou dood. En die seer is fokken baie pyn. BAIE.

Shit.

Menz het nie geweet wie Karel Schoeman was nie. Menz het al sy naam gehoor, maar dis ook maar al. Sy selfgemaakte-exit uit hierdie wêreld uit is tans groot nuus. En die debatte en meningsverskille daarom amper nog groter.

““’n Poging op 75 is deur omstandighede gefnuik, en intussen het ek 77 geword. Dit is dus nodig om die saak nou doelgerig aan te pak terwyl ek nog oor voldoende beweeglikheid, fisieke vryheid en geestelike helderheid beskik om ’n sinvolle besluit in dié verband te neem en dit doeltreffend uit te voer,” skryf hy.” Lees hier meer.

Dit is wat Terry Pratchett ook beplan het toe sy Alzheimer’s erger begin word het. Hy het egter die stryd verloor voor die tyd. Hy het beplan om Dignitas in Switzerland te besoek vir sy einde.

Dit vat staalballas om so ‘n besluit te neem en deur te voer. Menzself wil nie so oud word dat menz ‘n las vir die mense om menz word nie. Al is die las net op die ouetehuispersoneel – synde dat menz nie kind of kraai het nie. Menz beplan om self die exit te maak as daar nie uitkoms voor die tyd kom nie.

Give that man a Bells!! Sommer ‘n dubbele!
