      That is what perplex’s me. How people heavily disagree with that right. I mean if a loved one was going thru advanced stage cancer and rotting away and asking to be out of the misery they would sing a different tune.

    1. You can. The fact that it’s illegal (is it actually illegal? I realise i don’t know) won’t be a problem once you’re gone.
    2. There’s a whole life inbetween the beginning and the end, they don’t really have much to do with if your life has been full or not imo.

      The illegality is mostly relevant in the sense that it prevents other from providing assistance and may impose some sort of duty to intervene, even if said intervention is simply calling emergency services.

    A better question is how you used the card you were dealt - i.e. will you be satisfied with what you’ve done with your life when the end comes.

    Because if the answer is no and you feel you have to end it sooner than necessary, you haven’t played all your cards yet. If the answer is yes, the end will come all too soon and the question is moot.
