Great. That was their choice. They were all terminal.
Tell me, what did that last run of pain and suffering get them that they couldn't have had (other than a hell of a lot of pain and suffering for themselves and their families) had they stepped out just prior to the nasty end stage coming on?
Some people have what it takes to live as long as they can. Some people don't.
Some people can take pain. Some people "fear" pain of any kind. That little lady is one of these. So let her end her life. Sure don't admire her for a thing in her short young life.
Lots of drugs to prevent pain in this country.
You didn't answer the question. What did they get out of that final, nasty end that they could not have gotten otherwise? A few "days" more on the headstone, but what else?
As for drugs for pain, yep, you're right and "the opiate for the masses" is widely abused.
