My greatest fear is to be unable to care for myself, to enjoy life. I prefer death.
What if physical and mental degeneration was eliminated? If you could retain the state and appearance of a healthy, vigorous 25yo indefinitely?
Well there is no 'death gene' (I think )and I'm sure scientists are trying ever so hard. As joedad has mentioned. Quite a few people do worry... about their dignity or the burdening to others being looked after. People having lived a good fair amount of years have said they have seen it all are tired now and are ready to go.
Living several hundred years would give them a different view of course if they were physically ever youthful.
