RE: Right to Die

Only for the terminally ill, via hospice and palliative care. No direct action is taken to end life; the process of death is simply allowed to occur without extraordinary measures being taken (in theory, at least). I work directly with several hospice patients, and I'm a hospice volunteer with a provider outside of my job. I'm satisfied that this is the case, by and large.

Taking direct measures to end the life of someone who ISN'T actively dying is actually murder; Even if there's been an expression of a desire to die.
If someone feels the urge to kill themselves that strongly, then they're free kill themselves, but physicians shouldn't be involved in it.
