Such a shame.

May God have mercy on her

[Bryanw92]

I can’t believe she didn’t video her death in the ultimate selfie. </sarc>

[ScottinVA]

RIP..

[Lurker]

I don’t blame her in the least.

Today I chose to die with dignity

So it's not dignified to pass on without help?

If all was as she said it was, I understand.

RIP, young lady.

[Secret Agent Man]

sad. don’t know a lot of details.

at least she didn’t go heisenberg at the end.

[the OlLine Rebel]

Actually this is pretty darn shocking to me!

We just had that thread about how she changed her mind - about this early date.

Are they saying she suddenly worsened really badly within one day?

I mean no disrespect to the dead, but her last words seemed so hippie-dippie. No mention of God, or meeting her Maker, or worry over heaven & hell — whether she sinned, hurt anyone, transgressed, yada yada. Obviously her suicide was a secular act & secular mindset, but she might be the tip of the iceberg, as far as others in the future making narcissistic choices.

Christ died without dignity. Why should I feel I deserve any more?

[ConorMacNessa]

"Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light."

I will die when my Creator has finished with me - not a nanosecond before!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

[GeronL]

I don’t see any dignity in this

[CrazyIvan]

I understand her decision completely because of personal experience. I only wish I hade been able to say good bye to that person.

[EDINVA]

That was pretty on again off again. I thought as of Thursday she’d postponed taking her own life.

[eyedigress]

RIP young lady.

[Gator113]

May God forgive her for her sins and may she RIP......

Somewhere, Ezekiel Emmanuel is smiling and applauding.

I’d probably do the same. No point in prolonging the inevitable and being a burden on your family. My grandad had terminal lung cancer and he deliberately chugged down a couple of sleeping tablets having had a glass of whisky the night he died, which probably wouldn’t have killed a healthy man but probably helped him on his way. He fought to live as long as there was hope but he speeded up the process within two days of being told there was nothing that could be done. He was a tougher man than I could ever hope to be, so I can’t imagine doing anything else in his position.

That said, this should be COMPLETELY in the hands of someone who chooses to do this, without any input from any third party. That is where the slippery slope lies. Anyone who wants to keep living until the bitter end should be able to do so without someone else deciding for them.
