I prefer the hospital, because they are more equipped.

I prefer the hospital, because they are more equipped.

More equipped for what? To simply 'pass away" I'd say anywhere would be properly equipped.

To answer your original question, it's going to depend greatly on why exactly I am passing away. If it's from cancer or some other long term disease, depending of course upon which stage of said disease I am in, then i may prefer to go in my own bed.

However, if it's an injury, like say I forgot the rules and ran with scissors, tripped, and plunged them into my chest. In this case, I much rather pass away at the hospital, where they are attempting to save my life rather than bleed out at home.

Don't think it would really matter...I guess a hospital would make things more convenient for the fam.  I know some places where I WOULDN'T want to pass away at: in a plane crash, at the hands of a psychopath, etc.

Where ever it is, I hope it is quick and painless.  I am much rather looking for the Lord to come back first!
Have a wonderful day!

It all depends of what I am dying of.  If a long term illness, then I would like to be at home where my family and friends would be.

I'd prefer to go at home.  I don't want to waste away in a hospital racking up hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills and leave a burden for my family to pay.

yes i would also say the hospital because of there equiptment as in say if i am in pain they can give me some painkillers or if im suffering they can ease me into a sleep. less painful for me and my family.
