I know where you're going with this, ...

Of course you do.

"Though her doctors have said that she is not terminally ill, ..."

Right back to the article.

Yeah....and if you go right back to MY posting, you'll see the part about "...time on this Earth near its end..." and also the underlying point of MY stating what I would want, as expressed in MY will....

I understand what HER will states. I also understand the horrible difficulty (leaving the financial part out of the equation) in seeing a loved one being kept alive purely for the sake of not wanting them to die. Sadly, she will die eventually, as will everyone.

My point of the whole thing is that I do not want to be kept around artificially for the sake of being kept around just because it's possible to do so. You can either agree or disagree - matters very little - it's MY point and MY choice.

Since when did it become so wrong on this site to lead into a personal statement with thoughts on an issue examining the difficulty of its entirety?

I guess our "counterparts" on the other side of humanity are not the only ones who can be blinded by subjectivity. It appears that many of us, probably myself included, can stand a little sunlight.
