my friend char had moved in with her mom in the last year to help care for her dad who has Alzheimer she also has a boy with down syndrome too so it WAS HARD for her. her dad is much further along then she was .shoot she never made it to see her 44th b-day ... but Yes I know we talked of Alzheimer and we talked of ways to "end it " what would work what might not work... what will God think will God forgive , take away the shame she was covered in, ... all that stuff. and in the end .. to me that is what made her the bravest most caring loving person on the face of the earth. her sacrifice for"us" her family her friends.
Thanks Mark for tying the two together and not thinking I went off topic. hugs my friend and prayers and hugs to the room.
PEACE

Perhaps i feel like i helped kill my best Friend. And i cant shake it off. And who wants a friend like that? What kind of person am I ? I will NEVER EVER tell her family.

Ok dear friend...you know how I feel on the subject of assisted suicide. What you did/helped with, was an act of compassion...of love. And the grieving you are experiencing is that awful combination of pain and guilt and terrible loss. Going on another "search" and will be doing some bumping up of threads. You are/were truly her best friend and I am so proud to know you.

I didn't want this post to get lost in the "bumping" (((BMW)))
