Thanks all. I guess mortality is something we'll all have to come to terms with. It really got me thinking about what'll happen if I'm ever like that and that extension of life doesn't equal quality of life.

One thing I did come to appreciate was our amazing healthcare system. For all its flaws I still think we have one of the best health care systems in the world. Also the NDIS. Although we never ended up using it cause he passed before we could. To know it's there as a safety net for helpers, equipment etc. It's an amazing scheme.

It's why I'm happy to pay a lot of money for my private health insurance. Anything to take burden off our public health system I'll do. Again huge respect to health care workers. It's not a easy job.
