Just out of morbid curiosity: if you were in this situation -- quite old, quite sick, the very fabric of your body reminding you it's time to go, wouldn't it make sense?
With a spouse, there's obvious pressure not to. Without one, I feel like I'd do it. Ideally, I'd go somewhere where assisted suicide's legal so that I can end things neatly -- much bureaucracy, such dignity. uwu Not have aid workers find some messy or creepy corpse and depress the locals. (At $1,500[0], though, that may be a luxury.)

I talked to some local people about it, and it seems his disease was treatable. I don't know if he was in pain, but I do know he was still working as usual until the day he took his life.
