Dear Mary Ann What I don't understand is why you think you have the right to intrude into other people's choices . We need assisted suicide laws in all the states not just Oregon. You can't imagine how much peace of mind it would give me have the option if I couldn't take it anymore. my guess would be, although I may be wrong, is that you have not personally suffered much. I'm also guessing that you believe you are going to heaven, a great pain free place. So where is the rush to leave? Do you support the current war and capital punishment? Just curious.Would you like me deciding that you could NOT have extraordinary measures THAT COME FROM SCIENCE NOT GOD to keep you alive? SORRY, CPAA CAPS AARE AE MISTAKE. rAAY YOOU NEED TO LEEARN TAHT COMFORT IS NOT ASSUREDD. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mary Ann Ryan" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Monday, March 21, 2005 8:30 AM Subject: Re: stay out of my death, Mary Ann >> it would be more than convenient for ME if you would mind your own >> business.
