In Oregon doctor prescribed suicide is legal as long as they are terminally ill (diagnosed to die in 6 months). I guess that doesn't apply to a quadriplegic.

I skimmed over it, and though I'm not a big promoter of assisted suicide, I'm not one to prolong someone's suffering. If this person is for real, they have the right to end their life with dignity.

well
1. if it's a joke I don't find it that funny or well excecuted
2. if it's real it's sad
but if you laugh you probably shouldn't feel too bad because it's the internet and can be very impersonal, especially with text only
and we've been desensitized so much in our lifetime
if you laughed at her to her face I think that might be a little awful

yeah yer right.... i mean if she honestly wants to die that bad, she should be thinking of ways to kill herself instead of making a site about it.
there's gotta be a way she could do it herself, right?

"Everything becomes so public when your body is almost destroyed, You have no autonomy. You're full of bags and/or tubes, your bodily functions are not within your control. You're completely paralyzed, you are just a pile of flesh. Yes, a pile of flesh.
Imagine an almost lifeless organic structure. That's me! Locked in a body and that body locked in a room. Concrete walls that never talk to you. A television: who can watch TV for years. A radio: nothing more than the TV. You soon come to hate all the images and detest all the sounds. I wake up in this cage everyday, disoriented, desperate, sicker than I have ever been. No feeling in my arms and legs, from my upper chest down; only a vague sense that my whole body is entrapped forever. No movement left or right, up or down. I just have to hope that my mother will come very quickly to change the position of my body. She can do this today; tomorrow I just don't know."

If they really wanted to die they'd have done it. Even if they have no use of their arms and legs it's possible.
Probably a sick joke.

If I'm ever in a situation like this, I'd like to think I'd be allowed to just be done with it all. It's frustrating that a mobfull of afterlife-maniacs hold such a powerful say in whether or not I am justified to end my own life.

giginger > yes, how? it's easy to say you always can.
no, this situation is just atrocious, and it's far from being the only case...
i sincerely believe and hope assisted suicide will be accepted in some years, maybe it will take a dozen of years but if you're against euthanasia / assisted suicide for cases like this you obviously don't realize what they're enduring.
(and fuck religion if religion would be their argument to let people "live" this way... there are countless scandalous things in the bible anyway)

How?
I am clothed a glove-like thing on my right hand which keeps my index finger firm. Thus I can type very slowly moving my right elbow and shoulder. That's how I prepared this web page.
So they can control their wheelchair I would assume? That's all I'm saying.

yes. not a particularly good nirvana song. turned up on the beavis and butthead album i seem to recall.
was an outtake from in utero. and unless i'm mistaken, "i hate myself and want to die" was the working title for the album.
think the song was going to be a b-side, but geffen vetoed that shortly after cobain died as a direct result of hating himself.
apparently he'd said the title was a joke about how everyone always thought of him as a depressive.
methinks he was lying to throw people off the scent.

I don't get what you mean. If he has enough control of an arm to type a webpage, no matter how slowly, then he has enough to control an electric wheelchair. Those things can be breath controlled. He could be pretty mobile. Drive himself down to a lake or straight onto a busy road or something. This site just seems fake to me and it's a sick joke that's not in the slightest bit funny.

well i think his mom and friends should be able to help by getting him right medicins or a gun or whatever to let him kill himself
getting him an electric wheelchair is not real practical because he lives in a poor country apparantly

If people want to read Isaac Asimov, then let them do it. There's no need to start a protest against him. That's my 2 cents.
