I'd say that's when I'd be cool with assisted suicide.

What if the person does not need assistance?

Define a short while. Life is an incurable disease with 0 chance of survival. Does the person, of his/her own volition, get to decide when they have had enough?
Life is not an incurable disease, that's stupid and a perversion of the meaning of disease.
