I've got two choices.
I either actually go through with it, or I say,
"you know what, I'm too scared right now,
I.. I don't want to do it."
If I go through with it I die,
as I must at some point.
If I don't go through with it,
my choice is essentially to suffer,
and to inflict suffering on my family...
And then die.
Possibly in a way that is considerably more stressful and painful than this way; I've got death, I've got suffering and dying.
Well gee, you know, this makes a whole lot of sense to me.
There are people who will look at this and say,
"no, suicide is wrong. God has forbidden it.
You cannot play god and take your own life."
When premature babies are born,
they are given intensive medical treatment.
Their lives are saved basically,
because doctors and nurses are playing god.
They're saying, essentially,
"God's plan was that this person would die right now."
We're thwarting that, we're playing god,
we have to let them die.
