Subject: Re: ...that by nature is not assisted suicide, but murder.

(V): I'm not opposed to dieing with dignity, I'm just concerned with one family member being saddled w/ the responsibility of assisted suicide. And, there is too much room for abuse. If a team of Drs & family members are in on the decision, and a concensus is built around the wishes of the patient, that would be another matter altogether in my opinion.

I am close to this issue. My mother commited suicide in whole lot of pain. Who is to judge her for her decision? I believe she rests in peace now. But I sure would not have wanted to be the sole decision maker in assisting her to do so.
