  1. We had to wait about 3 1/2 hours because we had a large party (table for 7). I thought it was fairly good, not the best I have ever had. But it's just something to say that you have been there. On a side note if you love architecture make sure you go on the architecture tour. The houses are beautiful in down town Savannah and that's the best way to see them.

  2. My mother was my age 20 years ago.

     

    I am not "old."

     

    As she wasn't when care was denied.

     

    So, I really can't see what you're saying about "age."

     

    :huh:

     

    I have got to stop opening this thread. It depresses me everytime I look at it.

     

  3. Sorry!!! For some reason P.com went a little crazy on me.

     

     

    i see completely what you're saying.

     

    And apparently, in this GA case that has put "Final Exit" in the headlines, the young man who chose to make his own exit was actaully cancer free. He might well have gone on to have a life free of disease and suffering. I'm sorry to hear that he gave up before it was a forgone conclusion that pain and suffering was all he had in the rest of his life.

     

    Both of my parents died from cancer, and they suffered greatly before they died. Both were skeletal when their disease finally took them.

     

    My Dad sought treatment until the very end.

     

    My Mom, on the other hand, gave up all forms of treatment (after 5 years of pursuing it unsuccessfully), which was clearly an expression of the right to die. No, she didn't seek an early exit. Yes, she suffered immeasurably before the disease took her. But in choosing no more treatment, she made the choice.

     

    I asked because I was curious what others thought. It's not a trick question and it's not meant to be political.

     

    And it's especially not meant for anyone to suggest I try it myself and "get back with them."

     

    Sheesh. What a dweeb.

     

    <_<

     

    I too have seen the devastating affects of cancer and the toll it takes on the body and mind in the end. But I cant see "assisted suicide" to be anything other than murder. But that's just my opinion.

  6. If we have the right to decide if we want to give birth or terminate that new persons life....why should we not have the right to decide if we want to end our own life?

     

    God decided to bring us into this world. Shouldnt He decide when we leave it?

     

  7. About 7-8 years ago, I called 911 to report a cow walking down the side of road on Ridge Rd. The operator said yeah that was the second time it had gotten out that day. I guess it thought the grass was greener on the other side of its fence.

     

    I remember a cow walking down our street when I was a kid and we lived at least a couple of miles from any cows. And yes this was in Paulding County!
