    If somebody wanted tell you if you wanted to know the exact date of your death, would you want to or no.

    I would want to, I would think it would be liberating, knowing how much time you had left to work with.

    I wouldn't. I know the whole "living everyday as if it were your last" thing isn't feasible, but why not try to positive? Knowing the general time frame can be nice, as in like being told you have months/weeks etc. but a specific date is too much for me because it becomes a countdown, when it should be like a last hurrah, a kind of going out with a b---.

    Btw @Stephen a given date isnt always a for sure thing, like my grandpa was given 4 weeks (roughly), and its been almost 3 months now

    Edit: and he actually got better, same thing could happen with you if you keep up a healthy lifestyle and positive attitude

    It depends.. If they told me the date, and if there was a way to prevent it... then maybe.

    Depends if it's of natural causes or something that can be avoided
