Life in these Unites States is good so long as you can keep the medical aspect of life here at a safe distant. As soon as the medical world takes hold of one's life here life may very well become intolerable. That doesn't imply that my doctor(s) intentionally want(s) to make my life miserable, but the chances that such will happen are overwhelmingly distinct.
I am a content individual and my life is good, and before that picture changes for good, I feel that I should be able to say "Good-bye" in my own way, when I think that time has come. No reason at that point to postpone my departure.
How does this scenario strike you? Y'all have an opinion. After all you have an opinion on most everything else I discuss with all of you.
So, if you are even remotely on "my" page, what action would you suggest? Maybe you STILL do not want to talk about the subject. In The Netherlands several books have been written on the subject as a result of actions taken by family members, friends and neighbors of people who took the step to end their lives while it was still good.
Is there a universal scenario? No, but where are you on the subject of "Ending a life completed"?

Dear Maarten,
Perhaps you don’t want to be a burden to anyone if you are sick, maybe you feel the expense of illness is exorbitant and slightly unethical, and maybe you are just a self-reliant kind of guy.
But before you go and end your days, remember that there is a huge benefit for those who do and will take care of you. I’m not speaking about a financial benefit. I am speaking of a moral and humanitarian benefit. You are allowing people to be kind to you. You are helping people become better human beings by permitting altruistic and unselfish behavior on your behalf. This is a great gift those who are terminally ill can give. Ending your days obliterates this opportunity for someone else.
Will you consider this idea?
