Wilfred, age 75, has been suffering from cancer for 10 years. The pain associated with the cancer is severe and has become worse
over time. Wilfred’s doctors say there is no treatment to either slow down the cancer’s growth or substantially reduce the pain. Wilfred asks Martha, his wife of 50 years, to relieve him of the terrible pain. He asks her to bring him a bottle of pills that will help him end his own life. Martha cannot stand watching Wilfred suffer anymore and gives him the pills. He swallows them all, slowly fades off to sleep, and dies.

When it comes to ones life, it should be their choice when it should comes to an end, under the valid circumstances of course. One could ask what those circumstances could be, but as you can read here, Wilfred was an example of such. He was only painfully dragging his inevitable end, benefiting him in no way. Passing should be painless and peaceful. No one should have to suffer at the end of their only life. It's best, if one has a chronic or life threatening illness near impossible to conquer, one should be allowed to take control of their end, and surround themselves with loved ones, comfortable with their mortality, before letting go.
