Dignity & The Bitter End

Not quite sure those are the only options!


The artificial life support, for instance, is not mandatory in most places.


And I might be lucky enough to drop dead doing something I love, or die peacefully in my sleep, or relatively peacefully with medical support to keep me comfortable.


I hope I'd have the guts to kill myself if I have a terminal illness with intractable pain and/or extreme loss of quality of life.


But...I'm hoping assisted suicide might be an option by then.



I do hope yopu are all right Chumly?

I'm fine, except I have this ultra drear cold...sniffle....snort....hack.

I understand other variables can take place, and that happenstance may play a big part in one's demise. I narrowed it down to those two because it's what you might place in your will and/or have some choice over.

It is not illegal to commit suicide in Canada, but it is against the law to have someone else help.
