re: The Oregonian girl who was going to commit suicide because of her illness...

No, that was code that I have to get in the shower and get ready to leave.

If anyone has read my posts, I have never once said she should not have had the right to do what she did. I have never once brought religion into it except to say it is between her and God. I'm not wearing her shoes. What I take issue with is the euphemistic way this is being explained. People have repeatedly posted how selfless and brave she was because she chose not to put her family through having to care for her and the pain of watching her die. If she is selfless, then the implication is that those that choose to follow the road to the end are selfish, cowardly, and undignified. We know that not to be the case, but I feel the verbiage pretty much shits on people who fight to the end. I don't think it's fair to those that choose differently. That is my only point. I don't agree with her choice. I don't believe it to be selfless or brave. But I don't care that she made it. I know why she made it. And I don't judge her for the act itself.
