Neither but if it's a choice I would rather not be aware of what's going on if my body goes completely kaput.
It would bother me to be like dad, who lost most of his physical abilities and was acutely aware of it.
I can get over losing control of my body. If I don't have control of my mind, I'm truly lost.
I’d like to lose both at the same time. That way, I could get a pass for voiding my bowels in public:

I'm going to pretend I lost the one long before I lose the other (or the one - and fwiw, uc and crohns runs in the family, so I don't even worry about shitting myself, I assume it's going to happen). The Wife's family tells a story about their lifelong super decent pater familias losing his mind and ending up getting snatched by the cops propositioning hookers on main from his riding lawnmower. I like to think he did that for fun before he lost his mind - but after he could play the fool in court. Man got put in the ground with 17 girlfirends sobbing over his grave.
Epic...fucking...win.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
Hopefully both at the same time as metabolic functions stops.
I don't care which goes first so long as I'm reasonably content.
It's hard to imagine being content while shitting/pissing myself, especially considering all of the other skin disorders and pain associated with it.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
If I lose my metal facilities I could be a burden or danger to others whereas I grew up on a farm and know how to deal with waste.
