It is 4 paragraphs long actually, but I will only print the last paragraph.... the last paragraph is so beautiful......
"And my friend, when I am very old, and I no longer enjoy good health, hearing, or sight, please do not make heroic efforts to keep me here....I have lived for the fun and happiness we have shared, and I am no longer able to share that with you. Look deeply into my eyes.... Please, see to it that my life is taken gently, kindly, humanely, close to you, in your arms. I will leave this Earth knowing, with the very last breath I take, that my fate was always safest in your hands."
...and again, I cry........ | Beautiful.
Kim, I am sorry you are facing this very difficult decision for Lucy. I am confident that you will do what is best for her.
