Question of the Day: Day 312

If you were terminally ill and you found out that the end would be excruciatingly painful, would you take steps to end your life? Why or why not?

I honestly don't know the answer to this question. While I understand mercy killings/deaths, I believe that we are not to know or determine the day or hour of our death.

This brings to mind how my father suffered before he passed on. I know that there were days when he simply wished it were over; I also remember him making reference to the commandment "Thou shall not kill".

Guess if I chose to do that, I'd say a quiet prayer for forgiveness before hand. I really do hope to pass over quickly & peacefully... in my sleep.
