I would rather spend my life in prison than die. You can still learn, create, communicate... exist. I guess it depends on what you think happens after death as well as what you think happens in prison. It mentions that he is a father, it would seem to me that any chance of an interaction between me and my child would make me desire to keep alive. -But like you said, it really is a value judgement and there are a LOT of factors at play that would be specific to each individual.
