I am one that supports assisted suicide, should that be what a person truly desires. When all hope is gone, and the person is just existing and waiting to die, then it should be their right to choose.
But I hope I personally am never in that position, either for myself, or a loved one. I have an advance directive and have specified DNR when all reasonable measures have already been taken. I want no heroics, and I do not want to be "brought back" simply because it is possible. If there is no quality of life left for me, then it's time to let go. I do not want to be kept alive simply because it's medically possible to do so. It's not fair to me, but especially not fair to my loved ones.
Like it says in my siggy - "To everything there is a season"..........
