In my state assisted suicide is legal after check and balances from medical professionals have occurred. There is basically no push back in the wider society on this. For someone who has a long term debilitating disease the right to die with dignity is available. Yet after watching my 99 year old grandmother die last year in the final seven days before she passed it became increasingly obvious she was in significant amount of pain. The assisted suicide laws are irrelevant in this scenario and it became more obvious that giving her a massive dose of morphine to end it all was, in my opinion, the mericful and right course of action to prevent the needless suffering the final five days gave her. Medical professional ethics of course prevented that happening which I thought was borderline cruel. If I am ever in that position I have told my family to give me a 'hot shot' mixed with LSD to make my end of life timeframe as painless as possible. It's a shame that we couldn't have a quiet word with the doctor to over administer medication to her. In the final words she spoke a few days prior to passing she said she just wanted to go.
