    Last I checked death still comes one to a customer, and comes in millions of forms. So what’s the point in worrying about the how?

      Because you don’t just have a set date where you die and it’s just a matter of how.

      High blood pressure shortens your life and reduces your number of healthy and mobile years.

      If we know what is participating in that decline, we can push it back. Anything else is just letting corpos decide what’s profitable, not what’s best.

        Yeah but the end is the worst part regardless of any efforts to mitigate it. Your body starts breaking down, things stop working the way they’re supposed to, your mind starts to go - it sucks. I’d rather get it over work sooner than later.
