Dad had a living will and a DNR but when it came time and he told the doctor...no more...the doctor still demanded to speak to someone in his family. Brother and sister hauled ass back to the midwest and left me and dad's lady friend to talk to the doctor to convince him that dad was in his right mind...Blah, Blah, Blah. But I was willing to do it so that his wishes would be carried out...he had suffered enough and the only end to things was a more and more painful death the longer he lingered.
Very recently, his lady friend took her own life, probably in part because she knew that her daughter wouldn't make the decision and she knew what we went through with dad.
Neither were pleasant but they made the choice of how to end their lives when either death or the inabilty to make decisions was imminent.
