I don't condemn or condone this practice. I've never been in a position where I had to consider this option and I pray that I never will. I used to think I had my mind made up until I heard from some people who'd gone this route and why and it really made me think. And what was shocking were the people who stepped up and explained it to me--members here who are well respected by everyone. So at this point, as far as I'm concerned, I have to just claim the ole "you never know until you face it" routine.
To the OP, hopefully someone will send you the info you are needed. (I KNOW there are some here.) Good luck.
