I'm sorry you got so defensive about the therapy thing. I didn't say at all that you "should be." You are totally right. It's your body, your right. Hopefully, God forbid you were ever diagnosed with cancer, your family and loved ones would accept that you didn't want to have chemo mainly because you didn't want to throw up. I know my dad is very uncomfortable right now, but we also know that the chemo is giving him a longer life. If he ever told us he didn't want to go through chemo and just wanted to die, it would crush us If you think a person who suffers with cancer and has no treatment also does not exhibit the symptoms you list, you are very sadly mistaken. Cancer eats away at your body and kills you from the inside out. It's not pretty. Typically, people die after all treatments are exhausted. What you see at the end, the real suffering when hospice is called in, is purely the cancer eating the person's life away. You're allowed to feel that it's your body, and I'm allowed to fell that letting this phobia dictate whether you would just let yourself die is absolutely ridiculous. Just my opinion. I don't care if anyone agrees or not.
