I didn't hear about DogBomb's story until yesterday. I'd seen the name around the fandom before. I totally understand the decision he made and, having my own cardiac issues, I think if it comes to it I'd probably make the same call. I don't think it will, but biology is an odd thing, you just never know. Even though a very long time ago I came close to taking my life for selfish fixable reasons (depression from having an abusive childhood and I'm thankful every day that I did not), this would be different. I have a living will, healthcare proxy and durable power of attorney with my spouse, and have signed a DNR for those situations that can't be solved by existing medicine, to prevent those close to me from experiencing a lingering diminishing of the life of someone they love and the financial burdens that would entail. My spouse and I discussed it very carefully and came to the decision that we would both have DNR orders in place if either of us is faced with a terminal condition. It's never easy to deal with such things.
I just wish I'd known Dogbomb, I've read a lot here, on Twitter and on r/Furry about him, and he sounds like a wonderfully rare soul that touches everyone he interacts with with beauty and his indomitable spirit, and he is an inspiration to me as I deal with my heart conditions, and I will do better given his example.

I'm so sorry about your loss.

Β Thank you, it's gotten easier to deal with in time but with Dogbomb's passing it's brought up a lot of emotions I didn't realize were so buried.

I'm really sorry, I am very deeply, I hope I don't sound insensitive by asking this but, is he getting a euthanization?
π: 0 β©: 1
It's not insensitive to ask. The preferred term by those who go through with it, I think, is "dying with dignity." His doctors agreed that he has no hope of recovery (typical of ALS, since it's 100% fatal), and that he is going to die to it soon, since there's no way to treat it. ALS involves the body slowly becoming paralyzed, until eventually you're struggling to even breath at all. You slowly suffocate to death unless you get a machine to help breath for you, but even then, they still die eventually. So, he's decided to go this way before ALS kills him. Fortunately ALS is a rare disease, about 1 in 50,000, but he was unfortunate enough to get it. He's in the later stages of the disease as of now.
Most people don't go this route, but for some people with a terminal illness, like him, they choose to have their life end a little early so they don't have to deal with the pain of a disease in it's late stages, or put burden on their families (financial, emotional, caregiving, etc.). As Dogbomb once put it, "I'm here for a good time, not a long time." None of us want to see him go, but unfortunately, the alternative isn't good either.

God, Tem thank you so much for explaining it better to me.
Again, I'm very sorry to hear about his passing, its better if it goes through with it with dignity rather than enduring heavily on the pain of the disease

I'm truly sorry you all are looking a friend. I really am. Perhaps some of you have already tried talking him out of it, I don't know. It has honestly made me physically sick thinking about it, and I felt I really had to try. If it convinces one person to live a little longer, it will have been worth it. We lose too many people to suicide as it is. Why add to that number?
Maybe he is donating his body to research, and they desperately need a cadaver, in his current state, to make progress. That could be a noble reason, as it will help save lives. But to preserve "dignity" that is simply vanity. If you expect a painless, dignified death when your time finally comes, you are living in denial.
I have said my piece. I am done.
My condolences to you all.

I appreciate you being more sensitive in this message. Your previous ones didn't mix well with those of us who are essentially mourning his imminent death. None of us want to see him go. We're not celebrating his decision. We're just accepting of it. It's hard and this is something new to most of us. We're all learning how to handle a very unique situation such as this. I don't think anyone condones suicide for preventable, treatable reasons such as depression. Unfortunately, in Dogbomb's case, he has a rare, 1 in 50,000 disease that will slowly, literally, suffocate him to death in a paralyzed body, with no way to treat it. We're understanding of why he wouldn't want to live through that. It's a tough situation for everyone.

Thank you for continuing to communicate. It is just a shitty situation. I apologize if I came off harsh at first. I've lost too many people to suicide. And almost myself. I vividly remember drifting off, but in my last moment of consciousness, realizing that no amount of pain I experience would be worse than feeling nothing at all. Every day I am grateful I woke up, and that realization that I had made the wrong decision was not the last thought I ever had. I wish I could do more to convince others how important ones own life is. But perhaps that is just me feeling this way.
Every day is a treasure, no matter how bad it feels.
Thank you again for keeping our communication open, and once again, I am very sorry for your loss

I'm so sorry for your losses. I had a feeling that you were harboring some past experiences that were causing you to feel how you felt, hence why I was being so gentle with you.Β I hope you're doing better now.
π: 0 β©: 1
No need to be gentle, I can take it. Thanks for your restraint though. I was expecting more threats anyway. Your professionalism is commendable.
My personal experiences just make me very passionate on the subject. I really fear, that as the option for assisted suicide becomes more available, it will slowly become obligatory. As it becomes more common, would more individuals, who would never consider it before, now see it as an option? Plus, it's cheaper than treatment or hospice care. No one wants to be a financial burden on their loved ones. Makes it an even more attractive option.

Sorry to hear this... Wish him best of luck, safe journey.
He's lucky that his friend and family support his decision and be there for him... I wonder if I really want this one day. Would my family will ever understand?

Hopefully you'll never have to make such a decision.

That's a really nice tribute. I'm glad he's still alive to enjoy it.

a beautiful person is leaving the Earth, going on into the next life. He shall be missed by all who knew him, especially by his closest friends. And this bird who knew about this about a minute ago, but still knows the pain of losing a friend. At least he went out in a perfectly respectable way, giving what he could to others who could use it more than him. He's a true angel if I've ever seen one, down to the bone (ha, "bone", dog pun), and his being in this world was and is a blessing to all. I may not have known him, and I'm sorry I could never have met him, but he sounds like a wonderful person and I trust his story will live on in all of us, going on to inspire others in similar situations.
*takes hat off in respect* may he rest in peace, and may his place in Heaven be a great one.
I hope that speech was fitting for him, I just wrote it in a couple minutes.

I wish him the best of luck, but save that riveting speech for when he actually gives up the ghost.

Beautiful. Thank you for showing your support to him, you really are phenomenal.

This really isn't the time or place to get into a debate about dying with dignity. This is my memorial post for him, so please keep it respectful. You're allowed to have your opinion, but if I see more debate on the subject here, you will be blocked. Take it to notes if you have to - not here.

Dude, the guy was gunna pass any way you slice it, and he'd already understood that fact. There's absolutely no shame in taking it all into ones own hands.
It's not "surrender", it's acceptance.
Are you really going to get hung up on that technicality?
There are times when suicide is wrong, but there are also times when it isn't.

He's been a huge inspiration so far in that his Drs have been telling him for over a year now he probably should take it slow, not go out and do all these activities he's doing and what not since his movement is impaired now. He's fought very well.
He's not giving up - He's taking his own future into his own hands and making a choice to end things on a good note rather than be stuck in a body that is wasting away when he's eventually able to do nothing else for himself. The whole point of euthanasia is for people to die with dignity during the chance of their illness they have that time to make that choice. Being stuck in a hospital bed with grieving loved ones surrounding you as you can't move, talk or anything else is an agony no one should need to go through.

Because the disease would kill him slowly, taking his dignity away as he'd lay down having to get his pee, poop and drool cleaned by other people as he would no longer be in control of himself. By the moment you are diagnosed with ALS, you have already been defeated as there is no known cause and no cure.
I am completely against suicide, except in a case like this. In no darn way I'd wish for a person to stay alive, suffering, having their dignity taken away as they become pretty much a vegetable because of whatever belief I have. Would YOU wish to end like that, to cause pain to your family and loved ones because of seeing that once active, happy person laying down with no more voice, no more motion, having to be taken care of like a newborn baby? I definitely wouldn't.
Dogbomb did a lot by donating spinal samples for study, donating his body to science and raising several thousands of dollars to the ALS research. He kept a smile and a light heart all the way along, and despite the situation he was (and is) until the very end a light to a whole fandom. If that's not fighting and inspiring others to fight, then I have no idea what that could be.

As someone who has firsthand experience on knowing a person (elderly, admittedly) being left bedridden 24/7 and unable to take care of themself at all, I can only say, praise you for this view.
π: 0 β©: 0
Agreed. Even though he knew there was no chance of survival, he did all he could to help others with the disease after him. That shows a wonderful person, and a brave one too.

Exactly! He's going to be missed, the worlds needs more people like him.
I'm dealing with sclerosis myself (not the same kind as him, though) and he was an inspiration to keep my chin up.

Oh. I hope you are able to keep being amazing, even with the condition.
