What would you do

[Eternal_Love]

What would you do if you knew a person...And that person is suffering from a deadly disease and after a long period of fighting that disease has decided to stop the treatment...

[Nephthys]

simple. cry and then accept it and try to be there for that person.

[Meyrin]

I'll tell you exactly what a person should do. First of all there's nothing you can do, second is to accept it and thirdof all just pretend that there's nothing wrong.

[Metronome]

I'm sure a few people have experienced this. I had a situation somewhat similar a while back. My aunt was diagnosed with cancer but she didn't want to do kemo so went for alternative treatments even though i'm sure she knew there was little if no chance of them working...it happens you just have to accept you can't always change someone's mind and don't take life for granted I guess. I try not to make a world mystery out of everything but...it's good to get deep i'm just a bit too lazy to do so on forums I guess ~de arimasu

[Konata Izumi]

It's happened to me. I cried for a few days then accepted the fact that he was gone.

[KuroTan]

Pray for him/her probably. It's the patient's decision so I think it'd be unfair for me to force him/her otherwise.

[Koshiro]

Pray, allot better than giving up hope.

[zyronet]

Yep.. Pray for that person. Respect his/her decision.
But I think.. I would still ask what is the reason.

[CrimsonMoon]

Pray for that person and if I'm close to him/her, I'd try to stay by his/her side. That's the least I can do. Even though I disagree with the decision, I'd still respect him/her.

[Yuuki Kurosu]

I have also had a few situations like this and I still am in fact. Yeah, I'd pray and hope all I can. I mean that and accept their decision is all you can do really. I'd also spend as much time w/ them as possible. And be sure to tell them you love them, that is certinely a number one thing to do.

[Gizoku]

I'd tell them to get back on treatment. Then if its futile, I'd let them do what they want, then mourn over the loss.

[Eris]

Respect their decision. It's just selfish to force someone to cling to life that clearly doesn't want to live any more.

[Perpetual Specter]

I've been through this kind of thing quite a few times.A lot of my family has died from lung cancer.Anyway,I still would want that person to keep fighting the illness as long as they can.I believe there is always hope,even in the most unlikely situations.

[sa5m]

I would do anything to help that person cope with his/her disease and try to be there for him/her.

[Beast]

If they were slowly dying I would put them out of their misery. End the suffering.

[King_Shadow89]

One word PRAY.

[TheAsterisk!]

Well...
My grandfather (now) has skin cancer, bladder cancer, and (maybe) a resurgence of his colon cancer, and he's said that he's thinking about stopping treatment, but...I haven't really reacted yet. I don't know how I'll take it if he does stop his chemotherapy; I can't really imagine.

[Tri Ace]

want that person to keep fighting the illness as long as they can.I believe there is always hope,even in the most unlikely situations.

life is not cheap .. stopping the treatment for no reason .. i call it suicide
if we force that person to take the treatment ( which without it he will die ) then we will save a human soul ..
there is always hope !

[Khanxay]

Respect their decision. It's just selfish to force someone to cling to life that clearly doesn't want to live any more.

That^
Honestly...live in pain and be a burden or just die. The person probably took that into consideration.

[Shinn Kamiyra]

Even if I didn't want that person to stop his/her treatement, I'd try to respect their decision as best I could and accept it; however, I would tell them to keep on fighting and hold onto their life, even if there was little chance of them surviving.

I agree with you but it's not that easy. I've tryed to change my friend's mind but she refuses and says that it's what she wants.

the world need her ..
if she live she can do many things for humanity ..
in my opinion and as i see it .. she should continue the treatment not killing herslf

but if she choose the treatment .. and the treatment failed ..
at that time .. you can pray for her .. she did what she can ..

[realms89]

accept their decision and let them go in peace.

i guess i already know because ive experienced this before

[bug]

This never happened to me, but I would probably try to do everything I can to make the person see there mistake. No matter what, I would keep on trying to change there mind. A person can't see their mistake until after there mistake is made.

You can call that suicide.For a person who dosent have a disease cant understand what it feels like to be in pain every second during 24 hours and 7 days a week.
