Sounds to me like he was diagnosed in the later stages of the disease and decided that he would rather not deal with the chemo and treatments to battle the disease when there was a really good chance he could die anyway. I can totally understand that and it's his right to die if he wants to.

It's his body, his life, not yours. Like others have already said, the acupuncturist was for pain relief, obviously he did not think that alternative medicine would save his life.

I will say that the one thing he wrote in the letter that kind of bothered me was that he didn't let his parents know he was dying until he was in his final few days. At least he was able to see them one last time, but when his mother said (I'm paraphrasing) "I'm sorry I didn't give birth to you with a stronger body" I seriously cried. I know he wasn't trying to hurt them by hiding his disease from them, but at the same time, I think it's a little insensitive to hide the fact that you're dying from your family.
