Jim, I read your posts in the other topic too. But what you said here about "wanting your last weeks or months to be good ones" really hit me the wrong way. With all due respect to those fighting this disease to the death, if you read peoples accounts of their loved ones dying from this disease, those are not what anyone would call "good" last days.

You have a 50/50 chance of not having this disease cause your last days at all! Do you really think you are doing your loved ones a favor by giving in to a nasty, not so good ending without even taking the chance you can beat it?
