A Case of Assisted Suicide

No one deserves to suffer in pain, and the people around him or her do not deserve to suffer either. Kervorkian understood this, which no one deserves to suffer. When someone is sick and suffering it is not only that person who feels the pain, everyone is affected they realize that the person who is sick is not the same person who they once were. “After all it is one’s mental status that determines the essence of one’s existence” (page 318). If someone wants to end their life they will not get any better and Kervorkian said it best in the quote. Years ago we fought for our freedom and succeeded. We have the freedom to have a assisted suicide. “Suddenly-for the first time that cold, dank day-warm sunshine bathed the park” (page 323).
