Would you rather know?

[Unknown Entity]

How could you know how long you had left without being told you were terminally ill in the first place?

I wouldn't want to know what was wrong with me, because it would upset and scare me. I'd just want the doctor to tell me how long I had left.

EDIT:

Thought about it and I've changed my opinion. I'd want to be told what was wrong with me, but I wouldn't want anyone else to find out.
