If I recall the story correctly, the dude holding it knew what he was doing and did multiple times. Also he was terminal ill so he really didn’t care if things went wrong.

So I guess who knows even more may be relieved if in favour of consensual euthanasia 🤷‍♂️

Man that's another level of "people who know"

I don't know if I'd count myesthenia gravis as a terminal disease. Sure you can't get rid of it, but it's manageable with meds.

I would assume the Liver cancer they mentioned is the terminal disease they're referring to. It sounds like the guy has multiple chronic health conditions, which isn't all that uncommon.

Gah, the adhd skimming got me and I missed that at the end.

You're supposed to list the thing that's killing you the most first, it's kind of a rule. But I suppose this guy thinks he's too good for that too.
