Winding Down

It is with the greatest of joy, that I now know my time is statistically short!
Yes, the last Plattner male still has whatever time God has given me.
But, my body's failure is already written on the sands.

I have been undergoing some pretty harsh testing this past summer:
My kidneys have nothing left of them :(


Yup superior German genes - NOT!

I doubt this will go well, nothing else in my life ever has.
Sigh .....

So, coming to terms with this in my mind.
Knowing my end is spelled POTASSIUM poisoning.
Or the more vulgar - massive heart attack.
Maybe a coma first would be nice .....

I was told today it could be as quick as 10 days or as long as years.
There is just no way to actually predict.
They just see from the blood numbers that my kidneys are barely functional.

Personally I will opt for as long as possible.
But, not for me - for my grandkids and kids that still have not figured out life yet!

There is much one could say,
But why bother
No one ever listens in the end in this culture ....

So when my health unwinds, I will be in a coma for up to a week I am told.
No warning
Just a fade away.

Next week I start my planning in preparation.
Arrange and pay for a cremation.
Do a new will.
And sell off as much as possible .....
Get crazy mother to understand she needs to move closer to my sister.
sigh ....
