So I mean, it's such a horrific image.
Yeah.
Look, the question, I guess,
that we should be asking is, how do we know if somebody is able to make that choice?
For instance, let's say somebody has Lew body dementia or vascular dementia, which is a horrible illness where you lose your, essentially you lose your mind and you're not able to make those types of decisions anymore.
At what point should somebody be able to go, do you know what?
I don't want to die like this.
And more importantly, I don't want you to see me die like this.
At least give me the dignity of picking how I'm going to die and the method in which I'm going to die.
What's an advanced request?
Because that's what we're talking about here, which is that is such a monumental decision that even if you're certain at a certain point, even if you were like, I want to die, it's such a strong impulse.
The strongest impulse within us as human beings is to live.
It's to survive.
So it's an almost impossible decision to make, isn't it?
And what do you experience?
Do we know what you experience when you are being given that medication?
But are there some people who may have experienced it or are able to talk for a little bit and then die?
Do you see what I mean?
You're creating a taxable event, you're giving up your exposure, and frankly, you're doing exactly what the banks would prefer you to do.
