    It's incomprehensible that dying with dignity wouldn't be an option for someone going through this. Walk a mile in his shoes...
    So incredible that he is able to use his limited energy and fight through such pain, to try to get people to wake up and be ethical. He's a champ!

    This man should be allowed to pass on his own terms.

    Assisted suicide should be passed everywhere. How terrifying is that omg. Someone should collaborate with him. I cant see this. 😢. No way . My heart is breaking. I would be the person to help him . I dont know where family are in the picture. Just this alone. If it was my loved one, id do what he did bring awareness because that was powerful. I don't think a court in the country would convict. Nope. Pick a date , send out the notice. Theres no way.

    My mother died in an inpatient hospice facility in Nashville TN. She was from Staten Island NYC. I pray he is taken to one.❤

    Most states have a petition process whereby the people can choose to make something a law without legislative approval.

    Brittany Maynard also tried to be an advocate so that all Americans have the right to choose. But, it’s a shame that the law hasn’t passed in every state and the suffering continues. Very hard to watch. People with terminal illnesses should go in peace on their own terms. This is just cruel. 😢

    We are "one nation under G-D" and its about time we acted that way. G-D gives life and G-D alone takes it. But i guess i cant expect much with if u will all pronouns being accepted and abortions being legal
