    Ok, I am going out on my own here, again………….I would end it myself if I could (well, not quite yet!), and leave lovely letters to my loved-ones. I have a friend, who has MS and is going to do just that – that is how she wants it. Good for her! Her husband and children know, and she thinks this is the only way she can spare them the heartache.

    Godawful if you ask me – YES the law has to be changed.

    I think its one thing to say you will end it all yourself when the time comes… quite another thing to do it….

    My step father committed suicide as did an aunt ( who I was very close to) and a cousin ..she took a drug overdose. In each case they suffered a terrible death… truly its not easy to kill yourself and things can go terribly wrong.

    I would like to think I could be brave enough to do it…. but having seen the traumatic deaths people close to me chose I doubt I would be brave enough. If it were easy people would not want the assistance of doctors… that’s why the law needs changing.

    I kindof agree, but I do know how she is going to do it, and it is fail-safe – for obvious reasons, I am NOT going to put it on here.

    Very, but better than the consequences in these cases anyway.
