My mother would have chosen assisted suicide last year when she died of lung cancer, but there are two reasons why she didn't.
1) It is illegal thanks to conservative politicians.
2) Insurance policies don't pay in many cases involving suicide.
Another stupid point in a long litany of stupid points.
So instead she was forced to suffer until she could no longer even recognize who I was while I listened to her drown from the fluid in her lungs. I could literally see the fluid in her mouth move back and forth with each inhalation and exhalation during the two hours it took for her to succumb to acute respiratory failure.
Assisted suicide should be allowed. The patient should get the choice to end Their own life.
