How would posters feel if it was their Mother (that they loved) who decided to do this at 80+ years    I wouldn't want my mother to do this.

Am*3......It is not about YOU.  It is about a rational thinking elderly  person's personal choice.

Maybe if you are lucky enough to survive until your 80's you may feel differently and not have the selfish view you now have.

Would you feel more comfortable to watch someone you love live in pain or dementia so your precious feelings are not offended?.

Many older people know when their time is up and want to go out on a high note

Some people just don't get it !
