my dad died of cancer. before he even went to hospice he said to me "i'm ready to die" kinda guilty and i said "i don't blame you." at that point his life basically revolved around his illness and there was really no point to it. we understood each other and i would have killed him if it was legal but unfortunately he had to sweat it out. tbh this is one of those issues where i get confused why there's even another side.

I'm sorry for your loss. It breaks my heart that your state/province/locale doesn't have this law/didn't have it at the time of your father's passing. I'm sorry you had to watch the process of death in someone you love so much.

We all know why there's another side. Same reason half of America believes in Creationism.
