I'm choosing to suffer less. To put myself and my family through less pain.

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

I hope to enjoy however many days I have on this beautiful Earth and spend as much of it outside as I can surrounded by those I 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.

I'm choosing to suffer less. To put myself and my family through less pain.

I feel very fortunate to go surrounded by love. I'm proud of the life I lived.

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.
