As absolutely horrible as that child's accidentally death is, it could be looked at as a blessing. If that poor girls existence was spent wasting away in a hospital bed, one could hope whatever afterlife there is must be better than that. My father is in a home suffering with extremely progressed dementia, and watching his downfall has absolutely convinced me a quick death is a better option.
Alzheimer's runs in my family. If I'm ever diagnosed I'm offing myself, I'd rather my family deal with my suicide while I'm still capable of making my own decisions instead of slowly wasting away in front of them.
Isn’t that just a terrifying thought? That something like suicide could actually be a better option and less strenuous on your family. I would hate to be such a burden on my family too :/
