You are disgusting. Tragedy Vulture, ghoul. [/quote]

Stfu. Don’t even speak to me on this. I’m the OP of this thread. I had no idea one could pass so quickly from ALS. I had a family member pass from ALS and it was 4-5 years after her diagnosis. It is a horrific disease and honestly I might contemplate it if I had it.[/quote]

I would suspect he passed naturally, and was perhaps on hospice. But motor neuron disease is a common reason in Europe for people availing themselves of Dignitas.

RIP Erik.  Nobody deserves that wretched disease.[/quote]

NP here. I just watched some of the Netflix interview that he did under the conditions that it only be released until after he passed. My MIL died from ALS 1 year after her initial diagnosis (but 3 yrs after first symptom) and he sounds almost exactly like her the last time I saw her.

You lose the ability to swallow and eat. I suspect he was on a feeding tube. Life is miserable at this point. My MIL decided to enter hospice which for her meant the feeding tube was discontinued and you slowly die from dehydration and no food. This is the common protocol for ALS hospice and likely what he did which is not the same as assisted termination legal in some states.

Whatever happened it doesn’t matter and isn’t our business. [/quote]
