I'd call the police and tell them someone was making threats against my life. No doctor ever knows that a person has exactly 24 hours to live unless that doctor plans to wait 24 hours and then kill the person. They might be able to say that you have 6 months to live, but they could be wrong. You might die the next day or you might survive for 8 months or a year or more. I mean are we talking about a doctor or a psychic? When a doctor knows that a person will probably live for less than a day, that person is probably already in a coma. In that circumstance, I would try to have the most pleasant dreams I could so that I could die peacefully.
The scenario, I'm saying, would never actually happen. In no case would a person be active and alert and know that he or she would live for 24 hours- no more and no less- unless the person was going to die through an act of planned violence.
But as implausable as it is, I'll still project my imagination into the scenario. I would have to talk to some people- family, friends and so on. No, I could forget the so-on's, but I'd have to talk to my family and my friends and make sure they all know what to do with my stuff, that I don't want to be embalmed, that I want to be buried as naturally as possible and that if they want to look at me after I'm dead, they'd better come quickly. I'd have someone plan a get-together. Once that business was taken care of, I'd have the nicest meal I could and I'd head outside. Depending on the time of year, I might just go for a long walk or if there was snow I'd do some boarding. I would talk to everyone I saw as I continued to enjoy the outdoors. Once I knew I was down to about 8 hours or so, I would go to my woman and we would make love. I would prefer that I could die at home, but I would want to plan to have my body dealt with in the least troublesome way, so I suppose I would have previously arranged to have someone take me to the funeral home- a gurney at the ready and so forth. I'd be buried in my white peasant clothes which are clean and folded on the shelf right now. I suppose my last act would be to take a shower, dress in my whites and lay on the gurney.

Try to convince all the people I could to accept God and Jesus and quietly pray....I would make a video of my life to be played at my funeral...a really funny one that gave everyone hope to know that they would see me again some day...and to be sure that it is okay to laugh in my name when I am gone.
