Nothing is every perfect -- neither is dying slowly.
But we have reasonable legal frameworks for refusing treatment already (even in cases of dementia, where a guardian makes the decision). We can build reasonable frameworks for making assisted suicide decisions too.
And should these frameworks have flaws we can improve them.
I won't outline a proposal here, but it's not rocket science to require a paper signed while of sound mind, and then giving a guardian permission to pull the plug later. It's not rocket science to limit it to people with fatal conditions, etc.
