Atheist doctors twice as likely to shorten patients' lives

If I was terminally ill, I would want a doctor to hasten my death. :)

Let me go with dignity. I would not want to suffer and slowly rot away.
 
And that's bad?

You're going to die, why waste more money and suffer more?
 
If I were to face a terminal and extremely painful disease, i'd opt to go fast so I could lessen my suffering.
 
I would chose to endure the pain and suffering while smiling through it hoping my strength might inspire others. Just me though. I never take the easy route.

Nothing is easy about knowing you will die. :( Regardless
 
:) just putting light humor in this.

When that time comes, I will know what I want to do, I have no plans for when I die, so can't say anything :)
 
I don't think I will have to worry about a doctor terminating my life. for some reason one of my formers think I am going to die of a heroin overdose.

:shock:
 
TXGolfer, a lot of people don't realize that the more you cling to life, the worse you affect the beloved ones more because it makes them watch you suffer in pain. It's NOT inspirational. When you make it clear that you're terminally ill and accept death with dignity with minimal suffering, then you make others feel better and help them deal with their death.

Sadly, a lot of people don't have that courage to face death when they have terminal illnesses. Clinging to every last minute of your life is horrible. It only makes you die horribly and inflict more mental pain on others. It also costs money and time. You need to stop stressing people out.

That's why I honestly believe that all terminal patients should be counseled on end of life options.
