I spoke to her sister/ my aunt earlier...the lone survivor.
It's all good. I thought I might get visited on her way by...it happened to me when my dad died, but not the case today.
Thanks everyone for your support.

Hugs, Nate.
I've been a little choked up with this one over here since you originally posted and wasn't sure how to respond. But there it is. Been having thoughts about my own mortality lately due to recent developments, and if it comes to it I'd like to have the choice your aunt did.

Dave,
Hope things aren't too severe for you. I'll be fine. Spoke to her husband tonight, and it appears everyone is at peace.
Life is what it is, and then you die.
No one gets out alive.

My thoughts are with you Dave.

I have no words that will help I fear, but i hope you know you are in my (and i assume a large percentage of the hive's) thoughts.
I hope you and your family can find peace in these tough times.

I hope you are doing ok, Nate. Here is an article from the Times that made me think of this thread.

Thanks for that, Mary.
That's exactly how Nattie felt. (we're both named after the same person) She watched so many people fight, and suffer in that fight, only to die in agony. She decided to skip the agony of the fight. She was tired...tired of the pain...tired of the lack of quality of life.
I've come to terms with her decision. Still, I don't think I could make it. I have a son that needs me. As long as I'm lucid, able to advocate for him, and I'm not a financial burden on my family, I'll fight the fight.
All in a lifetime.

I just caught this thread so I'm late to the party. I'm sorry for your loss.
Being able to go out on your own terms is somewhat of a foreign concept when it comes to people as compared to animals. I've long felt that option should be available to people that want and need it.
Doesn't make it easier for the rest of us though, at least not completely.
