if i had any kind of terminal cancer i would off myself long before it killed me. actually i think it would be kind of cool to jump off something really high and die that way. cooler than dieing of cancer anyway.

I'm pretty sure my prolonged disturbance in mental status has qualified as some kind of cancer by now and equally irritated that I can't just end myself peacefully.

Figuratively vs. Literally.

Geez... This woman is my age... It's not really my place to judge whether or not its a good thing as ive never been in that position, but hopefully this will bring peace to families who need it.

Perhaps I'm overstepping my own experience here but... Seeing as how any healthy person can jump off a building at any time to end emotional pain, I see no reason why the helpless who are suffering have to be trapped here. I guess there's no such thing as "fair" in this situation :-/
