Everyone should have the right to live their lives as they want (without infringing on the rights of others), and that should include the way they want it to end.

Of course there need to be strict legal processes in place to prevent people from coercing others into euthanasia/suicide, but in principle if someone wants to die then they should be able to.  If they're physically incapable of doing it, then they should be assisted.

A lot of times, even serious pain relief can't touch the suffering some people go through.

A blessed release is a merciful act and should be allowed imo

I find it bizarre that humanity will put down an animal that is dying and in pain but wont let a human in the same position be allowed to

Didn't realise Dignatis would assist paraplegics?  Can understand that people who are paralysed from the neck down have zero life quality, but surely having use of the top half of your body and being able to speak, eat and breath on your own is a hugely different scenario?

I see the insurance company was being sc*m as usual.

Shit sorry typo; neck down

And yes hugely scummy; anything to get out- just numbers to them; no room for morals/compassion
