"Dr. Death" is .....well.... seriously dead

I have to agree. In such cases of terminal illness, especially chronically painful illness the patient should have the option.
It goes against my grain to say that, because it opens the door to Obama's "End of life counciling" built into the Obamacare bill, but it makes far more sense to allow a person with no chance of recovery, and who is in excruciating pain to suffer until it kills him.

That's not an easy thing for me to say, but I think it's barbaric to force someone to suffer for days, or weeks, or even months in agonizing pain. How is that humane?
