"I have no grand wish for death. I do not view 
suicide as a desire to end life or a dramatic way 
to go down in flames. Rather, it is a tool in my 
possession­the only one, really­that offers a 
permanent end to my pain. When I have lost enough 
of myself to this disease as to become 
unrecognizable even to me, I will stop. I will go 
no further. That, I tell myself, is my earned choice."
