No I would not like to be on life support if I had no chance of recovery. I would like to be made comfortable and let go. My brother-in-law was in a bad accident and was on life support for a couple of weeks. It was the hardest decision his family had to make to take him off of it. He had left so instructions as to his wishes. Whatever your wishes are, please make sure that someone knows and/or put it in writing.

If I had a chance of recovery, of course. But if there were very little chance of living a normal life after life support, I would not want to live like that. I could handle loosing my legs or arms or even some of my insides, living in a wheelchair or something like that, but if my brain was whacked out and I couldn't communicate, pull the plug man.
Life is for living...and laying around in a bed being fed thru a tube is not my idea of a life.

No- I would only want people surrounding me chanting the Maha Mantra so I could transcend this material world. I'm just done with birth, death, old, age and disease life after life. This place is a bad bargain (Maya, Illusion) I want to go Home to the Blissful eternal spiritual abode. This world is Temporary and full of misery. The best way to get out of illusion is to chant the maha mantra (the great mantra for deliverance from illusion, misery and the repeated cycle of birth and death.) go to krishnaculture. for details and read Bhagavad Gita As it is By Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada. Tells one the prupose of human life and how to make the best use of a bad bargain.

Depends. My back-up career is poker, so as long as I have the use of my brain, eyes and right arm, I think I'll be fine. But if I've lost all that, yeah, pump me full of morphine and let me die smiling.

No!
If I'm in such bad condition that I need life support to live, I would prefer to die.

No, that's why I have a will that states what to do in that circumstance.
