According to Jiangsu News, in order to make death more dignified, Jiangsu Geriatric Hospital allows patients to sign a "pre-life will" first. In the ward of Jiangsu Geriatric Hospital, Yin Huiming, a 70-year-old retired teacher, signed a pre-life directive: when life support can only prolong the death process, give up cardiopulmonary resuscitation, give up using ventilators, give up feeding tubes, give up blood transfusions, and give up expensive antibiotics.

There is dignity in living, and there must be dignity in walking at the last moment.

Most people are afraid to talk about death and are afraid to face the departure of their loved ones. Therefore, when you are terminally ill, or for your terminally ill relatives, no matter how much you pay, you hope to do everything possible to rescue them so that they can prolong their survival time.

But in fact, most rescues cause trauma, patients may have to endure great pain before dying, and the quality of life is not high. Therefore, now "death with dignity" and "pre-life wills" are gradually being understood and accepted by more and more people.

Fu Daren, a famous Taiwanese program host, performed euthanasia in Switzerland, and his family released the last picture of his life. Fu Daren seemed very calm about the impending death, and he said a large farewell speech, and the last sentence was "goodbye".

He took four sips in succession, and the last one was drunk one after the other. His son cried silently and said to his father: Daddy, we love you, well, it doesn't hurt.

Finally, the doctor handed Fu Daren a glass of water, and he drank it happily. Seeing Fu Daren take the last sip, his family felt relieved, and his lover applauded him and praised him for being awesome. The whole process lasted 2 hours and 13 minutes, and Fu Daren officially ended his life at 18:58 at the age of 85. Finally, he fell into his son's arms and slowly fell asleep.

When Fu Daren was young, he went to the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, and interacted with Song Shixiong, and at one time, on the Chinese TV screen, there was "Fu Daren in the south and Song Shixiong in the north". But in his later years, he can be said to have experienced a lot of pain and suffering, and different lesions have occurred in various parts and organs of the body, especially the vision of the eyes has decreased, and it is serious that it is basically impossible to see clearly. Nearly half of his stomach was removed, his gallbladder had problems, and he needed to undergo re-surgery every six months to replace it with a new gallbladder.

In such a situation of mental and physical torture, Fu Daren chose to ask his family for euthanasia, hoping to make himself a quieter death by facing death. In the face of Fu Daren, who was tormented by illness and increasingly suffering, the attitude of his family also changed from resolute opposition to understanding and respect, so there was the scene above this article.

Paul Sartre once said that the tragedy of life lies in its eternal diminishing condition.

David Thoreau also said that death is the real philosophical thing, and the problem of death is the ultimate problem of mankind.

It can be seen that death education is both necessary and important for life, it is one of the meanings of life education, and it needs to be carried out all the time. Only in this way can our life education be more complete and human nature more abundant. After all, for life, not only emotion, but also reason; just as for death, it takes not only courage, but also wisdom.
