dying from cancer at home in Thailand
Not at home they didn't. You don't have to believe me. Wait for Sheryl to check in. The locals here who die of cancer and are in extreme pain will be send from our Amphur hospital to a provincial government hospital, in this case Lamphun Government Hospital were they'll be administered enough morphine to keep them out of extreme agony - but not to keep them comfortable. I've seen the conditions average Thais die in here in Thailand and it's not pretty or dignified.

I wonder how many of the suckers will fall for it again when their politicians campaign on giving all Thai citizens 10K each. Hell, it worked once, it should work again. "No, really. We really mean it this time. See, you put the other people into office and they lied to you. We're telling you the truth. Put us into office and you'll all get 10K THB. Honest!"- Overpopulation — Just a thought

Sure - if their families live in London or New York. However, I imagine that the really wealthy and connected can get morphine and other pain killers that the "little people" and commoners will never have access to. If your name is ends in Shin, I'm sure you'd be taken care of. If your name if Bob Smith or Somchai Satang, you're going to be left to die in agony for lack of adequate palliative care. Remember? It's your karma and we can't have the hospitals creating morphine addicts now can we! And fentanyl patches. Heaven's forbid. Look at America. Fentanyl is bad. Very bad. Can't allow anyone to have that. If you're given fentanyl, you might die!!!- dying from cancer at home in Thailand
Nope. Nor are there any hospices. They don't exist here. And palliative care in hospitals is in the stone-ages, or non-existent. They'll hand you a bottle of Tylenol and wish you good luck. And the palliative care you can obtain will probably be inadequate if you can get it as Thai doctors have two problems. 1) They feel that the pain you experience is your karma and your own fault, and 2) they feel that if they give you adequate amounts of painkillers you'll become an "addict" (heaven forbid). And they aren't going to give you morphine to take home. It's extremely difficult to obtain except in hospitals and then only under certain conditions. And don't plan to be put on a machine to self-administer morphine based on your pain levels. They'll ration morphine and they won't care how much pain you are experiencing. They use to have fentanyl patches, but I'm pretty sure those were discontinued. See reasons 1 and 2 above. You're better off staying in your home country. This is no place to die if you're in pain. Where do you think wealthy Thais go to die if they have cancer? They don't stay here. Check Soapy Massage tycoon and politician Chuwit Kamolvisit. He left to go die in the UK. You can't get adequate palliative care here, and you won't get it at all for home use. Wishing you the best. 🙏- Blinken Urges Europe to Prove Its Strength as Trump Returns to Power

Queue the finger-pointing.- Unpacking Thailand’s Beauty Ideals: A Call for Diversity and Inclusion
I don't want to move toward diversity and inclusivity. You're either beautiful or you're not. If you're not beautiful, tough. Too bad - get over it. You weren't dealt that hand of cards. Not everyone is - most people aren't. Then you can just be like the rest of us average people. If you are beautiful, then that illusion will dispel withing two or three decades and new "beautiful" people will take your place. If you actually were fooled into believing in your own inherent beauty, you'll probably end your life miserable and extremely unhappy, and no doubt will cosmetically butcher yourself in the process - then you WILL be truly ugly. Join the majority. That's karma in a nutshell. And in reality, many of those who actually, in my own opinion, are truly physically beautiful spend most of their lives looking into a mirror and seeing someone who can't live up to their own expectations of beauty. Too bad they didn't have well-grounded parents. Personally I'm more interested in what is beneath that superficial layer of illusion society labels as "beauty." Because the superficial layer is only temporary, and it will change over time, and not for the better. And really - anyone who want's the majority to collectively accept ugly people as beautiful are actually more interesting in changing people's attitudes by force. Like forcing people to say men are women at the end of a gun. It won't work, nor should it. I get the distinct feeling the Op wants society to be forced to accept the beast as beautiful. Why? That too is indulging in illusion. And nothing the OP spewed here is unique to Thailand - it's universal. Wanna know what really is healthy? Having a positive self imagine regardless of how society defines beauty and accepting yourself as you are. Beauty? "Pfft!" Some of the most f'ed up people I've met in life have been externally "beautiful" but internally a train-wreak. And some of the most beautiful people I've know weren't much to look at. Now dwell on that.- Thailand Sets Sights on Growing Sustainable Protein Market
