Suicide is the ultimate surrender. I agree with you. The fact that doctors are flat out saying that their is no hope is troubling to say the least. Maybe I'm being naive, but I think suicide should never be considered an option. I'm also not well versed in psychological aliments. Its very difficult for me to believe that depression is worth destroying a life over.. especially compared to some lack of sensory such as total blindness or deafness.. at least people with severe physical limitations like those are isolated from the environment.
