@randallshields56 ..Walk in MY shoes for 5 minutes and then you can criticize or give me your wisdom or advice on life. I was diagnosed with MS at 29. Due to a medical screw-up at age 54 I was hospitalized and discharged after 2 weeks in the isolation ward with Chemical Meningitis. As a result of the screw-up I now have Adhesive Arachnoiditis. I lost my career and income. I am in chronic to intractable pain even with a neurostimulator. Can't drive, eyesight is bad, and that is just a start. I am in my 70's now. NO ONE has the right to tell me I have fight.

@randallshields56 In my opinion, it isn't a selfish act to put ones self out of the pain/misery that they have to deal with on a daily basis. We can only live our lives for someone else's benefit for so long before you just can't take any more.
How long do you have to suffer mentally, physically, emotionally, and financially before enough is enough? Quality of life should always trump quantity of life, no one lives forever.
