Bereavement

I am going to do this also. It is all planned and my sister knows and understands. I am planning to go to a foreign country for a pain free assisted suicide. Pain can be so unbearable (both mental and physical) and they do it as a humane form of death for pets. It is legal in CA but few doctors want to do it due to lawsuits. I have my passport renewed and I am ready to go and all of my affairs are in order. I am going to wait for my dog to die first. No one wants me to be in pain and if they are ever in my shoes they have told me that they probably will do the same. I am glad I have a close and loving support group of family and friends. Of course it is sad. I feel so badly that I won't be able to help my sister take care of our parents but she told me that she has her husband and my niece to help her. I am glad I don't have to keep it a secret. That would be difficult for everyone. I hope that you understand how enormous her pain must have been for her to do this. She is in peace now and that should be comforting for you. I am glad that she no longer has that constant aching pain. I understand how both of you feel and have felt. Carry on knowing that she is happy now. She hasn't been happy for so long and now she finally has been released from the tortuous pain she felt every moment of every day. Peace for all of you!
