        This photo says it all. No one would choose to end their own life for any other reason than despair. To know we don’t need to suffer in the end is empowering whilst living. Good for you, Italy.

        Patient autonomy - a personal decision not to accept medical treatment is a choice. We have free will for a reason.

        Well, of course, I have one myself. Thought this was more: likened to assisted suicide, essentially. Oops🤭

        Everyone should have a Durable Power of Attorney for Healthcare and an Advance Directive completed. In addition, research Hospice care. It’s an wonderful program for end-of-life care.https://www.nhpco.org/

        This is an article about living wills or advance directives to refuse care. The US already has this. Surprised so many commenters seem unaware.

        I would like to request POTUS #45 to end it now on behalf of the American people in due to incompitency and in accordance with the 25% approval rating. The lowest in history...
