I think goodbye threads are good but I don't think they provide enough emotional/mental support through the CTB process. I've specifically referring to like SN type of exits. I believe we should have almost like chats or something devoted to when that individual is passing. I've been in the chat before with @rem2024 (I'm pretty sure that's the username) when they CTB and aside from basically saying good luck and goodbye etc...safe travels etc...there was really no moral/morale support. Chat returned or continued with it's normal conversation as if nothing had occurred.
I found this gravely insensitive and I feel like goodbye threads aren't enough support either. We need people there in the present tense to see these people and be with them to hold there hands until the final moment of them loosing consciousness so they know they don't have to die alone. They can be chatting with us during the whole process and we can be giving them our full undivided attention. That is how I would want my CTB to be and given the right meds (propanol? Meto, etc...) I think perhaps I could CTB with this type of support network.
Anyone else agree or understand where I'm coming from with this? I've gotta head to work but I was thinking about what would make it easier for me to CTB and this is what came to mind.
Thoughts? We could even have a scheduled chatroom open even just to see that person off on there departure, being totally devoted to there passing. Almost like a funeral kinda, in the sense that it's a gathering, but that individual doesn't pass away alone.
I remember in Donnie Darko this woman says "Every living thing dies alone." I don't think it has to be that way at all and I think we can use technology as a means to change that. We can provide support and get these people through these final excruciating moments. Myself included.
Thoughts?
