Characterise Ken Harrison and explain his reasons for wanting to die.
             Ken Harrison is not a normal person. He's not capable of adapting himself to a new lifestyle which causes such dramatically changes as paralysation. By being paralysed, he loses everything of importance for him. His whole life is being physically active, he loves to walk by the beach, he loves the nature, he loves sports, and he loves women.
