First let me extend my sympathy for a week in which events led you to ponder end if life issues. I wholeheartedly agree with your conclusions and earnestly hope you never find yourself in the role of being diagnosed with cancer.

Expensive experimental treatment will not save you; however it will add to the medical knowledge of the scientist trying to find cures and help for the generations that follow you. You will be using up significant amounts of your families money. You will prolong your life by a few years. You have excellent insurance and they will cover the majority of these costs. You are in a rare demographic which makes you a prime canidate for this study.
