I do not know how one could define assisted suicide. For terminally ill patients...Well, maybe it could be an option, if they are so much in pain that they do not want to live any longer, and not that they're going to live for too long anyways..
But well, for people who are able to do so...Like, my grandmother. We knew that she could perhaps live for at most 5 years more, although no one knows how long she might have lived, since she didn't have any terminal illness or whatsoever, but the body just gives up after some point, you know..
My grandmother did not ask for such a thing, since she was a woman of strong will and determination, and loved us dearly too, she would never think of suicide when she wouldn't be dying any time soon either.
As I said, maybe it can be a choice for people who have like very few time to live. Cancer patients and such...
But other than that, no.
Do you think that you are allowed to take your life, when you are the father of three children and husband to a wife?
Do you really own your damn life, or are your children and your wife entitled to it aswell?
You take the descisions, but you do not suffer the consequences, apart from being dead and all...
