my dad fought lymphoma and leukemia for 8 years before running out of strength.
About a month before he died I was visiting him and asked one morning if he slept OK.
His reply was "if I had a bullet I would have shot myself".

That coming from a man who went 15 years without calling in sick, never complained, tough as nails. He kept fighting no matter how bad it got.

I promised my wife that I would never do that to her.
