[QUOTE="1Mudman, post: 3839715, member: 51234"] After losing my mother and father both to long term disease and watching them suffer for months and months. My father had told me that when it was so bad and he was couldn't help or be of use to anyone that he would end his life. His cancer started as a little tick sized wart and after he messed with it and had the neighbors try to remove it. He went to the Dr and the Dr. cut it out but didnt get it all. He had a surgery to remove the cancer but they didnt get it all either. Then it started growing and there was nothing they could do really, so he went home and Dad had excepted that it was his time to go. Over a period of 9 months he lost 150 lbs, had grown a mass on his upper back and shoulder that you could only imagine in a horror movie. Myself, brother and some very good friends help him so he could die at home. One of his good friends was a Dr and kept me filled in on what was going on and when he expected him to pass. My brother and my mothers B-days were September 1st and he called that night and just talked about and laughed about a few things. I didnt realize he was telling me Goodbye. Sure enough, he took a overdose and plenty of pills that kept him from vomiting and one of his friend stopped by to check on him the next morning and he was gone! He had a girl friend and had set it up for her to come by and get him for breakfast and to take pictures together. He didnt want to be found by the flies first. My father had told me and my brother that he was going to do this and at least he died in his home and thats what he wanted. He did not want to be in a nursing home at all. I have to think that God would forgive people in horrendous pain and there is no options to live to forgive them. I have to believe someone that has been living in a terrible depression and having mental problems of some sort would be forgiven as well. They are suffering and have a disease also. My only regret is that I wish he would have told me in that last phone call and I would have driven 6 hrs to at least be with him. Its been 20 yrs now and I still miss him and mom everyday. [/QUOTE]
