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

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.

The reason to consider life and what's of value is to make sure you're not missing out. Seize the day. What's important to you? What do you care about? What matters? Pursue that. Forget the rest.

The thoughts that go through your mind when you find out you have so little time is everything that you need to say to everyone that you love.

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

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.

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.
