Story I met someone who had brain damage, apparently from trying to jump in front of a vehicle...

Basically I was hospitalised with someone, and what I heard happened to her was what I wrote in the title. She would loop round and round the same conversations/verbal utterances and was wheelchair bound. I guess it's just a cautionary tale to do as much research as possible to be successful in your attempt, because I cannot begin to imagine the hell that she was in. I met her several years ago so can't really describe her symptoms beyond that, but just that from what I recall it seemed terrible.

Warnings about this are never enough.
Watching videos of failed attempts always reminds me of how planning is so important.

That sounds so horrible and is exactly what I fear, it's just inhumane how people are denied options of reliable ways to finally die without risks.
