You could contact the Final Exit Network or Compassion and Choices (both USA)

I also have told my family that I will die before I am put into a nursing home. I have been diagnosed with an illness that is quickly making me bedridden, always in pain. I do not want to go into detail. What I would like help with is my choice of dying. My ancestry is Cherokee. I plan on going into the woods – when the time is right – and remain until I die. I plan on going during the winter months, starting early enough so that a return would be impossible – lost, too cold, confused…what ever the reason…no turning back. It is a natural way, more natural than prolonging life in a place where you have to be drugged, tied down, fed, “cleaned”…I am not afraid of death…I am afraid of “that kind of life”.
My question; is there a group or organization that is involved in this kind of end of life choice and can someone tell me how to contact this group. Thank you for the information. Thank you for this website. Thank you for helping us take back some dignity that governments have deprived us from – in many, many ways – not just denying us the right to a dignified natural way to die.
