Susiedq, I don't think anyone means to cause any offence. The reality is that if told that one had six months to live, you would probably stick close to home. Glad that you are a survivor. Cathie

bahamas? greek isles?

First I'd go to Africa for a safari to enjoy the animals, then I'd go to the Greek island of Santorini to spend the rest of my days in Oia until the last sunset.........

Italy, but I would want to make sure I got the heck out of there before I was hospitalized as thanks to the Catholic Church ruling how dying patients are left to suffer day after day that is not where I would want to spend my last month.

I too would make sure I was safely back in the Netherlands before things got to be really bad. At least here I can smile at my doctor and ask him to end it for me.

susiedq, sorry you are offended by this thread. I have seen with dear friends what they do with 6 months to live - one had brain cancer following breast cancer - she went back to Hong Kong for a couple of weeks, then to South Africa, before going home to get married. She died two weeks later, in far less than the 6 months they gave her but she lived for those months - her wedding was one of the biggest most joyous events I have ever attended.
I know in reality I would probably creep into my shell and do nothing, but my friend always was and always will be an inspiration to me.
I am glad you are a survivor.

If money was no object, one assumes ..?

Then would I want to reconnect with memories or seek new experiences? This question may arise.

They say you should never go back - so I'd skip a final journey to East Africa - Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Malawi - and forgo one more soul renewing visit to Venice or Istanbul.

If people don't count then I would go to Antarctica. If they do, and they do, then I'd want to gather all the people I love, and who've shared, often at a distance, a mutual journey from being young idealists to wherever it is we are now. Where? Funnily enough, it probably would be somewhere in England.

Tuva - or Bali H'ai - or Shangri-La.
