The Death Of Lynn Gilderdale/Jessie

Thankyou mind_travel for pulling these links together. I did not know _chaotictears_ personally, but we had several LJ friends in common. I think everyone in the CFS community here knows about this now

God that's sad.

the second link doesn't seem to be valid.

This is all sorts of awful. I am blessed to live in Oregon, where we have one of the few assisted suicide laws in the world. We have had to vote for them more than once, and have had it challenged by the federal government for years, but I am happy that if I am ever in that position, i have the choice and right to end my life with the guidance and help of a doctor.

i can't get the second link to work.

i swear, there are time i hate having cfs. this months is one of those times. it has been a struggle to get off the sofa and do anything. and it is driving me crazy. it always gets worse when i get sick with my annual winter bout of cold/flu/bronchitis/pneumonia etc. but this time, this time is different. really different. this time it is painfully obvious to all of us that i am getting worse, and that i might not bounce back. it is hard for me to deal with, because i never really want to fully admit that i have cfs, because to me admitting it means that i have to deal with it, and what i already am dealing with is bad enough. time to hop out of denial and start facing things head on, right?

I am constantly amazed at how much this has touched all of us in the ME/CFS/CFIDS community.
I still can't stop thinking about her mother, her family and friends but especially her poor mother.

This was absolutely tragic news which still has me reeling.
