It was such a sad ending it made me cry. Who else ended up crying at the end?

I believe that what she actually said was that she was "going home" - meaning, as swayedbytrinkets suggested, that she was going to die and would go to heaven, where they were waiting for her.
Thank you!! I'm kind of surprised people think anything else than she was going to commit suicide! It seemed evident to me, as she stated that "Its starting to happen" meaning the intense suffering had begun and she didn't want to experience that or make Nelson watch it. She is 'going home', meaning she is thinking of heaven. And "They know I"m coming" I took as meaning angels, lost loved ones or whomever she believes is in heaven waiting to care for her.
And I never believed she was going to her family, as she runs out of her house in her pajamas, with no purse and no money. And Nelson and Sara are way too upset for her simply returning to her family. She ties the scarf around his head so he doesn't have to watch her as she walks away, to commit suicide.

For me it was obvious that she jumped off that ramp. Hovewer less obvious was, why he just walked away? I guess it was better ending than scene where he is standing above her dead corpse.Correct me if im wrong please.

I cried. I cried when I saw the first one. I think the older version made it clearer that the girl had a year to live. She decided to spend the last year of her life helping people learn to live. One per month. It is pretty clear she's close to the end of her journey- I totally get that she wants him to remember her as she was.

Does anyone know for SURE just what Sara did?! Did she jump off the bridge, run off, or go home to her family??!!
If she went home, why go to the trouble of showing the bridge?
Has anyone ever read any interviews or heard commentary from the film?
