105. Okay. Let's say YOU have an incurable cancer.
But yet you choose very expensive treatment to fight this cancer.

My beliefs are that quality of life is much better than quantity of life and the treatment that you have chosen clearly won't result in a better outcome for you, but it gives you and your loved ones the peace of mind that you tried everything you could.

Should I have the RIGHT to interfere with your decision since it is going to cost me money? OR by your own standards not interfere with your choice but DEMAND that you pay for it out of pocket so it doesn't offend my beliefs?
