IS THERE A TIME TO DIE?

With life threatening conditions, chronic pain, and suffering, sometimes death becomes a welcome relief.
Time and time again during my many interviews I have heard, " Life sucks and I don't want to live this way anymore." "Life stinks and I am tired of being sick and tired." "They use anesthetics on animals and they shoot horses, don't they?"
My young niece once asked me "Auntie, what do you think death is like?" After some thought I said " I think
death is like drifting off to a permanent and blissful sleep. Finally, I think death is a place to rest in peace."

Death is never timely
Death is never fair
Time is a great healer
I know, 'cause I have been there.
