What he said ^^^
My dad died of cancer about 10 years ago.

I remember going to visit him once in hospital and he was in severe pain. He told me that if I was given the choice by the doctors to 'bring things to an end' then I was to take it without hesitation. I would have done it myself if I could have, such was his suffering. He lasted for a couple of months after that, but had absolutely no quality of life.

Any rational person who is against the idea has clearly never known anyone in the situation.
