Death and Legal Considerations “Death is both inevitable and irreversible. It is the one personal event that the individual can never report.”(Riley, 1983 p.192) Riley states in his Sociology Review Article, “Dying and the meanings of Death: Sociological Inquiries.” If I was forced to make an end of life decision I feel it would highly depend on the individual circumstance.

heard; thus, this time, I found myself in a place where I had no idea how I got there. Lonely and broken hearted, I began to ask myself “How did you get here?” In the beginning, I found myself at the alter and I knew how I got there.
