the difference lies in quality of living. dying of cancer is a shitty way to go.

having a massive stroke/heart attack/aneurisma? at least you pop and you're gone. going through chemo/radio for months/years to slowly, painfully wither away is bullshit.

same is true for all those diseases, parkinsons, alzheimers, etc.

fuck them all. they are the bane of our existance, literally. pure evil.

That is exactly the point here.

Its not instant death, but the process of a slow death that is the enemy.
