I read an article about a man who chose to die rather than being in a wheelchair. He was a young adult newlywed. He had a baby on the way and a great life. On one unfortunate day he had been hunting and fell 16 feet where he was paralyzed. He told the doctors to take him off of life support.

I feel like he made the bittersweet choice. He wouldn't have been happy living the rest of his life in a wheelchair based on the type of active person he was. It is sad that he chose to die because it must be very hard on his family, friends, a lot of people. But he felt that he was ready to go to heaven. He was highly religious so at least he was happy with his choice.
