  If you get rabies, you might as well elect to not be hospitalized. What’s the point of trying to stretch out your life for 2 or 3 more days of agony?

  Seriously, a couple years ago I asked an ER doctor to just let me die. I have insurance but the issue was air medevacc.

  It’s bankruptcy expensive.

  Don’t be silly, you can’t afford to die there either.
