http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/05/22/assist … index.htmlA 66-year-old woman with stage 4 pancreatic cancer became the first person to use Washington's assisted suicide law, a nonprofit organization announced Friday.
Compassion & Choices, an organization that says it advocates choice for the terminally ill, said Linda Fleming of Sequim, took her prescribed medication and died Thursday evening at home with her family, her dog and her physician.
She had been diagnosed a month ago with stage 4 pancreatic cancer and was told she was "actively dying," Compassion & Choices said in a written statement.
Well good for her. So does the government have a right to tell you, your aren't allowed to end your own life or you have a right to off yourself at any time? BTW what is the secret of soylent green?
