I am totally replaceable. I do things but others could do them if I were not around. If (or it is more a case of when) I need expensive medical care (eg hip replacement) assuming it will still be available on the NHS, I would ask myself, does my existence justify this? And the answer would probably be no, but then would I want to continue to exist without it being done? Again no. At the same time, what about the existence of those that are much younger, grossly overweight couch potatos on Warfarin for DVT bringing up children on a diet of pizza, burgers and chips to follow in their own footsteps? ( I have seen these on the bus and at Warfarin clinic). Should I give up my hip replacement to give them a stomach bypass, or to give a 15 year old a designer vagina?
Seriously, I feel a need to volunteer for something more useful than the U3A I help to run. There is more to life than just socialising and hobbies.
