And this here is all the twisted ways that make this not clear cut.

I’m loving all the comments about healthcare providers being too religious or the system is making money off the backs of terminal patients. All from people who don’t get it or can’t think this deep.

There are so many ethical issues tied to this. It’s simply not that easy. You can see how few people understand the layers of this just reading through this thread.

In the 11 states that currently allow DwD, the perimeters are very clear. A person diagnosed terminal with 6mo or less to live can can verbalise their wishes to take a life ending drug sooner (with vetting). No ambiguity.
