In waking life my dear aunt is suffering from cancer and has decided to do medical assisted suicide. We are counting down the days until she doses. I woke up in the middle of the night with tears in my eyes, having dreamt that 7 of my friends had also chosen suicide. They were suffering from various ailments and wanted to leave this world early. One of them had an entire house stuck in their throat. The 7 included my brother and sister and a few others I didn’t know as well. They spoke about their choice on a microphone. I struggled to understand their perspectives and what was the meaning of their lives even when cut in half. Then I rested on the side of the road. Was I safe? A man with a mean face came up to me to take advantage of me and as I tried to escape him, I woke up.
