You’re Invited To My Deathday Party

Dear Suze, A FB buddy is dying of cancer and sent me an evite for next week with a video communication link. He’s going to be with his wife and kids, and we’re all to have alcohol and snacks for an hour as people give eulogies while he’s alive. Then he’s going to give a short speech, toast us all with his doctor-approved lethal cocktail, and disconnect the call when he gets sleepy. Is this creepy or sacred? 

Dear Invitee, While we can’t always choose what happens (cancer), we can choose how we interpret what happens (celebration or mourning). -SQ
