I strongly believe it is MY right to decide when it’s time for me to die.
This is my belief based on my life experiences and knowledge.
When I read stories about terminally ill, sick and invalid people, whose quality of life is poor, I do not understand why these people are not allowed to die in peace when they choose to go.
It makes me so sad hearing that people are forced to endure pain and suffering with no future of anything but pain and suffering.
I simply do not understand the reason behind a LAW that prevents people from deciding when it’s their time.
Maybe I can understand reasons when the person is young, or depressed or has lost the will to live, but laws must account for different situations.
While I support Exit International and the work of Dr Philip Nitschke, I am not connected with them in any way.

Who Am I?
It is not relevant who I am?
I am acutely aware that to name myself would attract unwanted attention to me and my family.
I want that attention drawn and focused on the core issue: a human being’s right to die on their terms not someone else’s.
I am an educated intelligent male in his 60’s living in Melbourne Victoria, Australia.
To be blatantly honest, I am scared of two issues that may happen to me in later years, dementia and pain.
My father suffered from Alzheimer’s Desease for the last 20 years of his life. 20 years of pain and suffering before finally passing away in his 90’s. I believe Alzheimer’s is hereditary.
Pain, wow, disease, cancer, give me the pill now.
