Well pain takes being tough.
Let's go back to your grandad, guess he had something other then cancer. You think we should start putting down these people? Is that what your saying? Cause it was hard on you and your family, you guys suffered so let's stop our suffering. That's what it does sound like.
This girl moved to a state so she could what, take some pills and kill herself. Is that what this world is coming too?
Why, cause she doesn't want to suffer and fears to suffer.
He beat cancer. He had something else. I would have GLADLY ended his suffering, but for the laws in this state. I heard him many times over say that he hoped that if he ever got like that (and he did), that we'd be able to put him down and show him the same compassion we showed our animals. We couldn't do that, legally. What we did do, though, was work to make sure that he got all the morphine he could legally get as often and as quickly as he could receive it.
I have had other relatives die of cancer, as well as friends. I know what it can look like and what that brings.
Being "tough" and suffering through something can sometimes be just that, "tough". It can also be cowardly to do so, when the other option scares you more (death). I'd say that she's not scared of death nearly as much as it seems that some other folks are. She's going to die, very soon. She's accepted that fact. Other folks can't accept that themselves. So, who is "tough"?
I also see you refuse to address the other suicide option being discussed. Why is that? Is it because you'd have to admit that they might be "tough", even if their actions cause their own deaths? Hmmm... Being "tough" isn't so cut and dried, is it?
