I don't think assisted suicide is something that we should promote etc. but having seen many of my family and friends waste away in nursing homes (where you are not treated with any dignity) I don't see anything untoward about death that doesn't devistate a family, a dignified death.

I hope when it's my time go that it is not a long drawn out painful and devastating end. It's a real slippery slope but I think there are many doctors out there that do it quietly.

Yes there are..........One method is to allow a dying patient who is suffering from intense pain to control their own morphine IV's.........
