So since I was last here in SW, I got a new MRI
Proof that my incurable and untreatable illness has progressed.
What do you all think about euthanasia in my circumstance?

I disagree with euthanasia because the ending of ones life should not be medically facilitated. And I genuinely don't understand why anyone would want to go through the process of getting a doctor to kill them when they can actually do it themselves.

@SW-User Speculation. Doctors come to your home through hospice, or you go to Dignitas in Switzerland (very expensive and most can't afford it).
Additionally, I think it is wrong to traumatize others with your passing.

@FlowersNButterflies Wouldn't it be better to spend that money on something else? What about family?
Either way people who care will be traumatized. If it was explained to them I'm sure they'd understand.

@SW-User No, it is okay to spend money on oneself, especially at the end of life. People who can say good-bye are less traumatized than those who experience a sudden ripping away. And people who love you don't want you to suffer, and don't demand that you do things as they think they would do them were they in your situation.
My disease no profit organization is my beneficiary and I trust them to spend the money to help others with my illness.
