Is this so wrong?Digger,The choice not to receive further treatment is yours, as long as you are a consenting adult. The opposition is simply a way of people telling you they love you. Have you considered taking part in a Hospice Care program in your area? Not only will they be able to help you manage the pain and suffering, but they can provide counseling services for the entire family and yourself. Here is an article I got from the National Cancer Institute: Hospice CareI wish you well. You are more than welcome to come here to talk about this with us,ModKonnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
