I wouldn't say it was a sacrifice either, between the wound from the enchanted Morgul blade, being poisoned by Shelob, and the effects of wearing the Ring, not to mention it being taken by Gollum and destroyed, he suffered both physically and psycologically, the only healing he could get would be in the West. Gandalf had made a remark about not knowing what would come of him, and that maybe in the end he would like glass. Or something to that effect.
