I respect his choice
I did not go into morals, that's the way he wanted to go, he told me about 10 years ago.
Sad but glad he did it on his own terms.
I'm just a bit miffed that the doctors had pushed this on him with a "right, we pick you up tomorrow morning mate" one afternoon. Denying him the time to give his goodbyes.

I too respect his decision as upsetting as the whole situation must have been.
"Do not go gentle into that good night,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light."

My aunt was not impressed when she found him.
The house still stank of black powder 2 weeks later.
Old people should be given the choice, and not only painless injections in Switzerland.
If gramp or gran chooses guns, cocaine, heroin, Semtex, red bull and vodka, smashing into a concrete wall at 200mph or all the above combined.
He or she should be granted this.
Being tied to a bed 24/7 and fed though a tube with no exit EVER seems like torture. Medicalised torture.
"Libre arbitre" should never be totally removed.
