The patient isn't suffering so much as their family is, you selfish frick.

Yeah, that makes me want it even more knowing it won't hurt. I have a grandma that thinks Joe Burrow is her son and hopes he wins the Heisman. She is happy as frick and she gets to meet new people every day.

Don't tell me about people's family as if that moves the needle, I would much rather see her like this than wasting away from a stroke like my gramps did. Or cancer. Or whatever the frick.

Now who's selfish? What I get from this is you'd rather your family member die in pain so that you don't has the sads when you go visit them because they don't know you. Now thats being a selfish frick right there.

I know someone who was diagnosed in his late 40s. All I can think of is the things he will likely miss out on, like his kids graduating high school, etc.
