When afflicted with a terminal illness from which there is no hope of recovering, and the end will be agonizing, it’s certainly understandable to want to go out on one’s own terms.

There was an elderly woman last year who was prohibited from having visits by family or friends last year because of the risks that she could get covid and die. She said that she didn't want to live like that and they killed her “compassionately” because it was a life “not worth living”. The situation of isolation was entirely a man-made construct by the covid creeps but Government and Care Centers had a “solution”. She didn't have to die at all. Loneliness shouldn't be a terminal disease.

I don't believe there is such a thing.   Have you ever heard the phrase, "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger?"   If the pain is unbearable, that is what will kill you.   Anything else is the way of the cheat and coward.
