I do believe we should have the choice to gently and quietly leave this world, and not only free ourselves but also our loved ones from endless distress; mentally, physically, and financially.

This sentence sums up entirely what I think about it, I was delighted to have read you, life is for living and there is a point where that is no longer possible. I don't think it is compassionate to extend the agony, in fact when it comes to animals, we talk about putting an end to their suffering, I think that humans also have that right, especially when it comes to our will.

I however do believe in a God of compassion who has given us free will

It could not have been better said.

A hug 🤗

Thank you for your thoughtful comments @syllem, I just pray to never be faced with such a choice.
When my Mom was struggling that last month, we did our best to make her comfortable. We had caregivers coming to our home during the day. They pampered her, massaging her with oils. She used to sleep like a baby after her daily bedbath and body massage. Hubby & I took over at night. She really suffered, it was awful seeing her like that.😪

In such a situation, the person affected suffers for himself and for those he loves, because he knows that they also suffer. God protect us 🙏.
