I am kind of afraid to die because I don't like the feeling but I have to be brave about it

I am not only a dialysis patient but with two liver virus in my body, both of which is wrecking havoc on my liver's cells and I am not sure if when poor liver will conk-out on me. I had seen a patient with the same liver condition at the dialysis clinic and he experienced weightloss, fever, and passing blood on his stools which means his poop had blood in it.

However this said patient is drinking alcohol and it was one reason that his liver failed considering that he is already a dialysis patient. He could had gotten a liver transplant if not for that Hepatitis virus and his liver kind of failed fast unlike to one of my friends here in my Barrio but him developing a big tummy for years, about ten years or so until he developed a fever and then died.

As for my case I haven't had any test yet for my liver function and I am scared to what will happen next because of two liver viruses in my body, I am both positive for hepatitis B and C and with the latter as hospital-acquired but regardless I am prone to getting all the letters of the viral Hepatitis because I am already positive for the B virus.

That is why I am like a candle now, being consumed every passing year with my liver as the main concern because I do not know how to deal with it and it is really scary because I do not want to exit this world, not just yet. But who am I to control my life if I am faced with all odds? So I will just trust God and let me live for as far as I can because either way if I will live longer I will still face hardships and if I will live shorter, the only thing that will happen is that I will left things undone because I have a long-term plan in my life.

But for me, it is better to die first than to see the ones that love and care for me to go one by one. It is because of my disabilities and considering that I have an issue with my appearance as well, there will be lots of people that will just set me aside if I were to deal wit them for one thing or another and that is also my concern. So I better die first than to see myself helpless in times of emergencies for example because of the limited people that I have to contact plus I do not want to bother.

What I am actually afraid of is the feeling of being gravely ill, the pain, the additional discomfort, and anything in between. So I just want to die while being asleep but the thing is that I do not sleep that too long like normal people do. Now what I am doing is to take Vitamin C and at least have a sense of hope that maybe with some miracle from God, these viruses in my body will not be as damaging considering that I am doing a rather self-medication but with only vitamin C in a relatively megadose amount. So we will see if what Vitamin C does, if it works then thanks a million to God, but if it doesn't, I am so effed-up in my life anyway.

Sometimes it's not death we fear the most, but the suffering of our lives until that point...

I wonder if your Vitamin D level has been checked. You speak of your use of Vitamin C, which is quite a powerful antioxidant, but are you aware how important Vitamin D is to our health? If you don't spend at least 20 minutes in the direct sunlight every day, you are probably deficient, because we only get small amounts in our diet. Some people take 200,000 IU per day, and more, to get their blood level up to the proper amount. Do you know your current level? People with chronic illness (including infections) usually need a LOT more Vitamin D than healthy people, so if you're not supplementing, you probably should be. Some people get resolution of their health problems with nothing other than proper Vitamin D use. I am currently taking about 10,000 IU per day.

I've used 5,000 IU of vitamin D per day but now I am just taking it with my Calcium tablets which includes Vitamin D3, but I take at least two tablets of Calcium so my total intake is about 800 IU of Vitamin D3 which is 100% of recommended daily intake aside from what Moringa powder contains.

I haven't had any lab tests about my vitamin D levels nor I know if they had the test from the diagnostic centers here in my place but maybe I will consider to get tested. What is bad about a failed set of Kidneys is that the active form that the body produces comes from working Kidneys so I had a lot of years of having lack of it until I started supplementing on calcium with vitamin D many years later up until now because I needed both to support my bones.

As for vitamin C I take 1,000 mg a day and i just hope that it is working for my current viruses in my body which I hope not to get ill from because its the final nail of my coffin after suffering a bit like what I saw in one of my co-patients although he drinks while I myself is trying to fight it off with rather peculiar ways and means.

Vitamic C absorption will be effective when it will be taken along with vitamin D, and again just the 2 of them will not improve the bone health and for that you also need vitamin K2. The 3 of them work together. K2 will help funnel the calcium into the bones and remove all dangerous calcification happening in the arteries, while vitamin D will absorb dietary calcium from the gut. If you are only taking Vitamin D and not calcium still D and K2 is a good balance. If the bones are too weak then even magnesium needs to be added to this dose.
For liver health you need to add B12 and E for benefits.
I am saying this because my son is a functional medicine practitioner and I learn it from him.
People take vitamins randomly which should not be the case, vitamins go hand in hand with one another for benefits to be seen. It is always best to go with expert advice before taking any vitamin supplements because excess can also create problems.

Yes these ways of taking the said vitamins is correct particularly the combination of Vitamin K2 MK-7 with Magnesium, Calcium, and vitamin D for it to work which is why I had been experiencing improvements with my bones and the considerable improvements with pain as well as the overgrowth of my face particularly inside my mouth. Ma'am @nainaztengra 😀

As for my other vitamin needs, I just use Moringa powder everyday because I might get overdosed with vitamins if I will take them in a tablet or pill form supplements. Now with the addition of Ketoanalogues which makes me strong and I should had taken it a long time ago but my Nephrologist never prescribed it to me.

I am happy with the improvements and I just pray to God that this will continue because it is very hard to endure pain and immobility.

The fear of death is natural. I think it's one of those things inherent for animals who have developed frontal lobes and can ponder internally about our existence. Wouldn't it be nice to just exist without the concern?

Our brains can also torture us through our normal thoughts which is why I just try not to overthink the things that I am powerless to do something about because there will be such things such as what I fear in this life which is to suffer considering that I know that I will go to that route because of the clusterfuck of complications in my body but I am still choosing to fight because I am still alive and maybe miracles will still happen. @esecholo
