[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For all of you that think going to another country to get euthanized is easy, think again.

It isnt easy so it’s something I am thinking about now in my 50’s and will continue to do so in my 60’s and 70’s. I am 100% certain I don’t want to suffer and wither away for years with Alzheimer’s/dementia. It is so cruel to make a person endure losing the ability to walk, to become incontinent, to lose the ability to recognize loved ones,   then lose the ability to eat and drink. [/quote]

+ Also my MIL w dementia has lost the ability to talk as well and hasn’t said a coherent word in over a year. [/quote]

Why isn't there a movement to allow compassionate death for people in this situation. It is torturous and not many people would ever wish this on a love one or want to endure it. There really needs to be options like no antibiotics, or other medicine, no giving meal replacement drinks like ensure, etc. that just prolongs the suffering. [/quote]
