Genius.
Having watched the Sky documentary which followed a man going through the process with Dignitas it a laid all my fears.
I was concerned though by the couple who were healthy and wanted to die now together, so they would not be apart with the attitude of stuff the children!
Rightly told to sling their hook.

My apologies for sparking a disrespectful sidetrack from the topic but curbyi is right. The thread is about suicide.
Although I cannot move and I have to speak through a computer, in my mind I am free.

It appears he already made several attempts at suicide.
Whilst it isn't something I would currently want to do, I would like to think my parents would respect my wishes as an adult, if I wanted to end my own life, in a controlled manner, but I think I'd give it at least 3 years.
Not everyone can handle being paralysed.
Please keep this thread civil Unbreakable, I really don't want to have to start deleting more of your replies, as it will only happen so many times.

I am new on this site but have been a member of other sci support groups. I am surprised at the responses of some on this site concerning the tragic injury and death of this young man and the grief of this family. I am the mother of a wonderful young man who became paralyzed at the age of 20 and later went on to take his life. I know about most of his struggles and disappoints of continuing complications from sci; the spasms, the meds that did not work and the loss of dreams for his future; as a mother I grieved for him and his suffering but we tried everything we could and still kept trying to do the next best thing. I can only assume that this family was caught in the whirlwind of meeting the needs of a son they loved and balancing his wishes and their own desires for him to be happy and okay. I do not condone the young man's actions nor do i judge him. My heart aches for the loss and pain both the son and the family have gone thru. It will never go away. I hope new technolgy and breakthroughs will be created to improve the lives of those on this list who have been paralyzed. If health care were better it would help sci people to live better and more independent lives. Please remember that family members would always rather have you here with them.........please do not consider leaving this life voluntarily; where their is life there is always hope.

I must admit that one of the main reasons I stick around, or try to exist and face daily humiliation, frustration and sever pain is my next of kin.
I must say the quote above strikes me as being egocentric.
Adams mom, thank you for sharing your thoughts, I can never understand the pain you and your family must have suffered, even though I consider myself somewhat an expert.
