Oddly I was having a very similar conversation with a chap I know who is a nurse this afternoon. He has put his back out hoisting a sixteen stone fella in his fifties out of bed who can do little more than say ‘fag’ and ‘toilet’. Can’t walk, can’t dress himself, can’t wipe himself.
At that point I just hope I have enough left to ask someone to get my shotgun.
It is heartbreaking.

Best friend has dementia, since his mid fifties.
It is horrible. He won’t last long.
I told my gf if I get to that point just give me a shot of morphine.
