I think anyone ought to have the right to commit suicide whenever they want.  For the reasoning, I will save myself some trouble and point to some writings on this:

"Of Suicide" by David Hume

Letter 70 by Seneca

Letter 77 by Seneca


Life is terminal.  You will die, no matter what you do.  It is when and how and what happens to you beforehand that are in question.

"A wise man ... proportions his belief to the evidence."
— David Hume, An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, Section X, Part I.
