Part 10/11:
As Gödel aged, his paranoia and health anxieties intensified. He rigorously monitored symptoms and refused necessary medical treatment, fearing malice from health professionals. Tragically, these fears culminated in a fatal descent into self-neglect following Adele's illness. Gödel’s refusal to nourish himself ultimately led to his demise on January 14, 1978, when he weighed a mere 65 pounds.
The complexities of Gödel’s life encapsulate a message beyond mathematics: even the most sophisticated systems, in mathematics and life, bear limitations. His legacy lives on as a testament to the profound yet often inaccessible truths that characterize our existence.
