Watched my dad deal with chronic pain for years—he'd probably say this is a trick question because both options kinda suck lol

Life isn't just about the number of breaths you take. It's about how many moments take your breath away. Choose B.

Honestly I think this depends on the type of pain and your support system.

This is such a personal choice. For some people, time is everything. For others, it's about living without suffering. Both valid.

Pain can be managed with meds and therapy though. Don't be so quick to throw away decades.

Quality over quantity, always. I'd rather have 60 good years than 90 years stuck in misery.
