Yeah, as morbid as it sounds, I have no intention of my wife and children having to watch me degrade or to suffer that indignity myself. My plan is of course to never suffer from this disease but if I do, as soon as I know its spiraling I would check out. Would probably do something like attempting to climb a very tall mountain in the winter without oxygen. At least give myself a goal to distract myself as I head towards the inevitable. If I make it to the top I'll just take a long nap. That or just a massive Heroin overdose where a security guard will find me in the morning so my family doesn't have to deal with that. Big apologies to the security guard ahead of time.

While I have lots of guns, the thought of putting a bullet in my head is not something I could follow through on, would not want my family to have to identify me looking like that.

Suicide as a logical choice rather than a desperate one is so rarely talked about. It is just interesting to see views on it. For a "happy" person it sort of goes against the grain to do it but I see the reasoning. Add in the confusion of dementia at the time the decision has to be made. I'm not sure what to make of it!
