> You don’t get a choice in when you’re born but you should have a choice in when you die. Especially for individuals who have a family history of dementia and Alzheimer’s (including myself), death may be looked at as a form of mercy when death is a guaranteed outcome eventually anyway. I'm responding to this comment that was deleted. I have Alzheimer's in my family and witnessing it first hand on my grandmother, I simply do not want to live it through to the end if I were ever afflicted by it. It's pointless suffering for the family and for the sufferer.
