Yeah. No one should have to, but some people do... there are lots of very painful things that can't be fixed (yet). If I had THIS MUCH pain every day, instead of one week out of four, I would probably have chosen to die by now. I know someone who did. (Migraines. Fifty-plus years. She'd had enough.) It's too bad, but what other choices are there?

So I'm seeing if I have better choices. It's foolish not to exhaust all possibilities.
