Having the choice at the end of my life has become incredibly important. It has given me a sense of peace during a time that otherwise would be dominated by fear, uncertainty and pain.

We all just realized that I am terminally ill and I'm dying and I would just prefer to die with less pain and less suffering.

If you ever find yourself walking a mile in my shoes, I hope that you would be at least be given the same choice.

Who has the right to tell me that I don't deserve this choice?

I won't live to see the death-with-dignity movement reach critical mass, but I call on you to carry it forward.

There is a difference between a person who is dying and a person who is suicidal. I do not want to die. I am dying.

It is people who pause to appreciate life and give thanks who are happiest. If we change our thoughts, we change our world! Love and peace to you all.
