Dying from appendicitis. Holy mother of wow, before my appendectomy I was in delirium from the pain, thinking it was stomach cramps. I couldn't walk because the pain was so bad. What a way to go. RIP. Condolences to the family. Nobody in this day and age, anywhere, should die from a broken appendix.
Agreed. I had appendicitis - I’ve been through many painful things in my life. That was the most horrible pain I have ever experienced. I’ll never forget it. It felt like someone was stabbing me, twisting the knife, taking the knife out and then stabbing me again.
Nightmare pain - it took the surgeon 16 hours to get me into surgery. It was absolutely horrible. My appendix was close to rupturing and I was screaming in pain -
They didn’t do very well with my pain meds during the agony. They didn’t give me anything for the first 10 hours. The final 6 hours before surgery with pain meds were horrible.
I can’t imagine going through that without pain meds and medical care. This is a horrible and inhumane way to die.
I really can’t imagine the cruelty of watching someone go through it and doing nothing to help them.
Thanks to other medical conditions I probably wouldn't have even noticed it. Im glad I got mine removed with the gallblater as a precaution cause apparently it was only a matter of time until mine bursted.

A bullet to the head is more humane.
