Story The Last Resort – free assisted suicide via Sarco for approved (50+) users

[Antinous]

I am actively exploring this, and I can assure you, the process is remarkably straightforward.

I can't find info regarding Sarco's maximum accommodation parameters. I've searched Exit International and The Last Resort websites. A secondary source stated that Sarco is limited to individuals up to 1.73 meters tall (68 inches). In your inquiries with The Last Resort, do they mention anything about the maximum height and weight person the Sarco can accommodate?

I looked for that - and I didn't find any limitations. I will keep on looking and get back to you if I see it

I've researched the PPH (which has 18 pages dedicated to the Sarco) as well as the PPH Forums and found no info regarding limitations of a person's size. What if the client was a basketball player? Or a Sumo wrestler? Would they fit? I would think this info would be part of the intake.

The Sarco can accommodate a person up to 185 cm (6' 1") and 100 kg (220 lb). Info from a valid source.

Sarco is free, but you need to cover costs, such as body removal and cremation. They estimate that this will cost about $3000US or more, but nothing anywhere near what others charge.

The key documents that you need are an "Advance Directive (signed, witnessed and notarized by a notary public)" which is really your no-resuscitation order and medical records if you have them along with a psychological report, So essentially not a lot

There are questions from people on a simple bulleton board who claim to be healthy, who wonder if they'd qualify. The response was that the only criteria seem to be that you are over 50. You don't have to be "sick" to apply.

There are lots of questions on the application about why, etc and if your family knows etc So I am thinking they will judge your application by your commitment or if it is a long-held view that you intend to end your life

I found it interesting that you can arrive alone and CTB without anyone if you so choose.

It looks promising - and I will add things as I move down the application process

I

Is this method painless? Where to apply?

This is strangely inspiring - anything that can help us rethink death is important.

I need to read about the 'medical records if you have them along with a psychological report' - what would be in the psychological report? I have a few conditions but don't know what the 'establish you've been thinking of this a long time' would look like.

Definitely interested in reading more and if people feel like eventually within 20 years this could be an option versus everything else which seems far more complicated and painful. I won't be around in 20 years so I would sign up for this immediately and am excited to feel like this is an option

Wish I could afford to get there.

I'm not far from the age requirement.

The big 5-0 is when I wanted to gift myself an end to suffering.

Am I sure about what??? Helium used to be the inert gas of choice until gatekeepers compelled manufactures to contaminate it with air to prevent its use in the Exit Bag. That forced people seeking voluntary death to turn to nitrogen. If you desire more information, check out the Exit International website and the Peaceful Pill Handbook.

Antinous....is it pretty much impossible to get suitable helium for exit bag in the US? How about in other countries? I'm assuming this is why people have changed to nitrogen, though it doesn't seem as effective. I tried doing a search on Exit International but didn't find anything recent. I don't have access to the PPH.

Sorry, I don't have the info you seek. You might try searching the Exit bag and inert gas megathread.
