Taking into account your family history, your lifetyle, past illnesses, demographic trends etc. what do you think you are most likely to die of?

My best bets are on testicular cancer, heart disease, or an outside chance of skin cancer!


Hmm not sure. Perhaps old age or maybe cancer although I hope its not cancer lol. We shall see. When I find out I'll let you know :biggrin:

Not sure why, but I think RTA.

If not, probably cancer - most people go that way and it would be ironic!

DEATH be not proud, though some have called thee
Mighty and dreadfull, for, thou art not so,
For, those, whom thou think'st, thou dost overthrow,
Die not, poore death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
From rest and sleepe, which but thy pictures bee,
Much pleasure, then from thee, much more must flow,
And soonest our best men with thee doe goe,
Rest of their bones, and soules deliverie.
Thou art slave to Fate, Chance, kings, and desperate men,
And dost with poyson, warre, and sicknesse dwell,
And poppie, or charmes can make us sleepe as well,
And better then thy stroake; why swell'st thou then;
One short sleepe past, wee wake eternally,
And death shall be no more; death, thou shalt die.

I was once talking to someone on AIM about this, and I hit return too early and sent a message saying 'I'll probably die' :biggrin:

according to family history, i have a highest chance of my brain exploding, followed closely by multiple loss of limbs syndrome
Cancer. Two of my grandparents died of it.


...or alcoholism.

Most of the deaths in my family that I can think of were smoking or alcohol related.

Quite a lot of cancer in my family, especially multiple miloma [sp?]. My mum has had cancer once already [skin cancer..caught very very early 2 years ago and hasn't yet returned]. Several people have recently had/currently have cancer in my family. So I think cancer is likely for me in the future.

unless you have testicular cancer odds are you won't die of it. incidence is pretty darned low, and fatalities lower even still.

Personally my family history and own lifestyleleaves it quite open, but i should imagine it will be heart disease or stroke.
failing that simply old age or traumatic...

myeloma - cancer of the B cells you mean?

Good spot for your mum. Skin cancer if great if caught early, awful if not.
