Colorado resident here. A few years back, I watched my wife die of cancer, in great pain, and with many other associated problems. She tried to find a doctor who could give her the option to end things, should she no longer be able to stand it, but none were able to help her.
I voted yes. Forcing people to live through that is beyond cruel.
