I don’t think I would ever like to think I ‘give up’, but me personally, I think if I was old and I’d had a full and happy life, and I had the option of slipping away and dying peacefully, or trying to cling on to life for another few months where I wouldn’t have a good quality of life, I think I would probably choose to have the quality rather than quantity of life. But I think the important thing is that its always the individuals choice!
I agree wholeheartedly with Bex! Right now I’d fight like hell, but if I was older then why stick around for an extra couple of months if you’re bed bound and in pain?
I’d fight it too! There are lots of options for treatments, and if that doesn’t work, then clinical trials for new drugs, and they might work. I’d try anything to fight it and stay alive 🙂
