His father got cancer during the experiment. He considered ending it then, but he continued with the experiment.

Imagine having that sort of choice. He didn’t have to skip work to take his dad to appointments. He didn’t have to eat ramen to afford chemo. It was only when his own health was at risk that he pulled the plug.

Imagine a world where everybody had that sort of safety net. Just like, “Nope, shit’s too hard.”
