| If you died today....
Posted: 11/26/2008 3:37:14 PM | I'd be noticed immediately. I have two roommates and when something dies it releases its bowels That would be my last act of malice towards those around me. I had an untimely death so you have to deal with the stains on the floor........  OH YEA! SOMEBODY HIT ME | |

Posted: 11/26/2008 3:55:32 PM | Since I live alone with so many dang cats I would be more worried about how someone found me if I died rather than when.
What the heck do ya think those lovable, furry carnivorous ones are going to eat if I keel over?!?!
ewwwwwwww!!! *gulp*

Probably six hours. If mom couldn't get in touch with me she would go nuts and work would be calling or sending someone around. | |

Posted: 11/26/2008 5:54:15 PM | It would maybe take two hours tops.
I'm never late for work.
They'd send out a search party......
*wonders if it could be that I hold the company's checkbook and combination to the safe?* | |

Posted: 11/26/2008 6:01:07 PM | Depends how and where I died. At work they'd notice within 30 minutes or so that I wasn't taking calls. At home, my son would find me within a few hours.
A few years ago, when I paid the bills driving a taxi, another taxi driver apparently suffered a fatal heart attack on the road. She apparently had sense enough to pull to the side, stop the car, and put on her hazard flashers. The fountain soda she had bought just moments before was still cold when the paramedics found her.
I think I'm more concerned about what my last thoughts would be, and how my passing would affect others, than the how and where of my death. | |

Posted: 11/26/2008 7:13:05 PM | Well, let's see......probably less than 5 minutes....or until the next commercial came on during Sponge Bob and my grandson came to nag me for another snack!
You can be sure however, that no matter how quickly I was found; my mother would still call me giving me grief for NOT notifying her first and getting permission. LOL! I am afterall....ONLY 56 yrs old....Gawd forbid I should do ANYTHING without informing her first! LOL! | |

Posted: 11/27/2008 4:44:27 AM | [If I died today at home, it would be three days before someone found me. If I died in my car driving to work, it would be less than a minute. If I died while at work and it was during a meeting, who could tell?]
Very good Koople!  | |

Posted: 11/27/2008 4:47:46 AM | | It would take about 3.4 seconds for someone to find me and about 45 seconds after that to get on the phone to the insurance company...hehehe | |

Posted: 11/27/2008 1:40:06 PM | One of my roommates would notice when I start to stink. Tomorrow night sometime I figure.  | |

Posted: 11/27/2008 8:21:19 PM | Unfortunately, I'd be discovered within hours. It's kinda wacky, but I really wouldn't want to be discovered for a good month or so (see the "silly fears" thread if curious why).
Sans ... that's just nasty ... the thought of your hungry 82 cats. ewwww. lol | |

Posted: 11/27/2008 8:30:37 PM | | if you are worried about not being found in the event of an emergency, wear a life alert. in case you think i am being facetious, i am not kidding. i've thought about it for my future, but right now there are enough people and pets in my life to find me pretty quickly. it is a very sad feeling to feel alone. i feel it often, but not all the time. it is not the same as being alone, to feel alone. i don't mind being alone, as long as it's mixed with times to be "with" others. i'd much rather be in a relationship that is a good one, but this is certainly better than a bad one. | |

Posted: 11/27/2008 8:37:26 PM | | They would find we in about 4-7 days.Funny thing is(well kinda funny)I'm a building superintendent and the guy that did this job before me did it for 11 years and has found 8 people dead in thier apartments.The last guy he found was sitting on his couch in his underwear with the tv on and the remote in his hand.He told me this my first day on the job and said with a laff,"dont worry,you'll find one dead soon enuff". | |

Posted: 11/30/2008 6:50:40 PM | | I think this is one of those things you have to actually have to do in order to find out. Hold on............................. | |
|
| If you died today....
Posted: 12/2/2008 6:33:23 PM | I've thought about this before.
They would probably miss me at work tomorrow. If they couldn't contact me by 5 pm, I think someone would probably come knocking. | |

Posted: 12/3/2008 1:20:09 PM | I live in a private apartment and keep pretty much to myself, I dont have a family or a "next of kin"
It'd be a while before my remains were discovered and I take a strange kind of comfort in that because I have nothing to live for and could choose to die whenever I wanted and hurt absolutely no one in the process.
In the scheme of things, I'm utterly irrelevant. I wouldn't be remembered and wouldn't want to be remembered either.
I wager my corpse would be found during the black putrefaction stage of human decomposition so my remains would be infested with interesting insects.
It wouldn't be a very appealing sight at all and the smell would no doubt be ghastly.
It would be the smell which attracted attention and only then, would I be found dead.

Posted: 12/3/2008 1:29:26 PM | eventually my work would call to find out why in the HE double LL I wasn't coming to work.... I'm figuring about 3 days.... that would give my dogs time to devour a good deal of my dead, rotting carcass. Then they'd have to call in CSI to identify cause of death, I'll be on TV.....
Time to get out and make some friends..... or make a deal with another single person to call and check on each other every couple of days, just so the dogs don't get a belly full. | |

Posted: 12/3/2008 1:37:10 PM | | I don't know if it would BE a matter of time before being found...more like a matter of time before anyone NOTICED I was dead.... | |

Posted: 1/25/2009 8:58:27 PM | I suppose over time my answer has changed a bit, so here's an update..
If I died at work, it would depend on which part of the building I was in, but would most likely be found almost immediately, and carted into the ER... I work in a hospital.
If I died at home, It would probably be less than 3 days, mainly due to someone at work missing me, I always call in if I'm missing work or late.
