Terry Prachett: Choosing to Die

In the documentary Terry Prachett: Choosing to Die, a fantasy author, Terry Prachett, thinks about assisted suicide. Many people are against assisted suicide because they believe that it is not the way to die. He visits two men, Andrew and Peter, who do die and die in Dignitas. The reason behind Terry Prachett may want to die is because of the idea of pain when thinking about his Alzheimer's. Everyone should live happily and die happily.

The film is upsetting because the viewer knows that both men die and die out of chose. I tell you about this film is because I believe that if someone goes through immense pain and torture, he or she should be allowed to make the chose to die to end the amount of pain.

I know that many people are against it, and I know that the film is biased towards assisted suicide or euthanasia. However, please consider it nonetheless and watch the film if you choose to.

Best wishes to you, and I want you to live a happy life.

With love,
