It appears to me unnecessary to say much about the terrors of death. The subject has been sufficiently enlarged upon by various writers; besides, every one knows and feels for himself that life is sweet and death is bitter. However old a man may be, however broken in health, however miserable his circumstances, the thought of death is an unwelcome one. There are three principal reasons why all sensible people fear death so much:

First, because the love of life, the dread of death is inherent in human nature. Secondly, because every rational being is well aware that death is bitter, and the separation of soul and body cannot take place without inexpressible suffering. Thirdly, because no one knows whither he will go after death

I have read that studies consistently find there are states of ill-health sufficiently unpleasant that patients generally and consistently report they would genuinely prefer to be dead.

We also recover from many things so being sick once more is something we might recover from. Some know it's a there time and other really could have years so hope plays a part too

Have you considered who you would be without your fear?

What if you had nothing to fear and nothing to doubt?
