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

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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