This is how it will be to die of R2D Rebreather II

[NormaJeane]

I wrote to right2die complaining about the R2D Rebreather II, that the device did not work, that I am still alive and asking how much money they have made on the scam, but got no answer. Do not trust euthanasia specialists either - they do not know everything. Dr Philip Nitschke has a whole chapter about debreathers in The Peaceful Pill Handbook. There are errors in all books. Find out the facts about the method yourself.

I think the old ways are best. Nitrogen with exit hood.

It's funny how money is important to suicidal people.

I feel that too.

But it is!! If the thing doesn't work, or, like me, you got found out and have to give the device to some well meaning person, you have to shell out more $$$ on the next scam.

The Smith-Hofsess Debreather was used by people to end their lives. Of nine cases there were eight deaths and one failure. In the single failure the person was vomiting. Time to death was 25 minutes. In most cases sleeping pills was taken prior to use. There are no statistics about deaths from the R2D Rebreather II.

The R2D Rebreather II will lead to death by lack of oxygen. Right2Die has written the following on their website: "YOUR RIGHT TO LIFE INCLUDES THE RIGHT TO END YOUR LIFE PAINLESSLY, PEACEFULLY & WITH DIGNITY". But this is what you can expect - how humans react to lack of oxygen. 1: Pulse and breathing rates increase and coordination may be disturbed. 2: Abnormal fatigue and disturbed respiration occurs. 3. Nausea, vomiting, loss of voluntary mobility and loss of consciousness. 4. Convusions, gasping, loss of respiration and cessation of heart function.

Yeah, I am truly interested in the Sarco but not sure it will be available in the states in time for me, plus I have no money and I am sure 3d printing and the gas are pretty cost prohibitive for a homeless indigent. Any how, the Sarco promotes that it offers peaceful death that is totally controlled by the person using it and comes with an escaped hatch in case you change your mind. It works basically the same as the rebreather but the gas used causes a peaceful relaxing sleep entering death and then the container itself can be used as a casket, or sarcophagus, hence the name, Sarco.

Having recently attempted to use this device. I must say I do NOT recommend this method. Also note I have recently been ambivalent about taking my life, and I realize that may play a part in my perspective.

Air tight seal: Achieving this is next to impossible. You can get a fairly good seal with the mask and head straps, but once your body begins doing things on its own its much harder. A forceful expulsion on air from your mouth can be sufficient to break the seal. Also if you begin to perspire that might also affect it?

Connections: They are simple plastic and pvc connections, just a male/female connection system, they disconnect easily as there is no latch or screwing mechanism to keep them in place. In order for it to not disconnect, you would need to lie extremely still.

The Lung: I'm not sure of the actual name. I am referring to the plastic bag inside the cardboard box functions as the devices 'air supply'. This is far too small. It makes your breathing feel labored and pressured. A sense of anxiety and hyperventilation sets in. It is not comfortable.

The Canisters: These are meant to scrub the C02 out of the returning air. They may have been working, but the shallowness of the lung was enough to cause panic in the first place.

I tried multiple times. In all attempts the anxiety/ panic of not getting enough air set in very quickly nor did I ever reach a point where I felt like I would pass out, let alone getting light headed.

Was this prior to the update of removing the cardboard box?

why not just use pvc glue and some watertight caulking to seal all the connections???

sorry to tell you all but it does work. i helped a neighbor ctb using this device.

Why did you have to help your neighbor; is it not an assistance-free device? Thanks.
