So next the teabaggers will outlaw the morphine pumps...

End of life choices are tough, best was close friend, melanoma returned, spread, but he/they made a point to pull in close friends, family for private goodbyes, and away he went.. Perfect, simple.. Hospice is the best people, huge help to all.. At least he had the choice..

Boomers Push Doctor-Assisted Dying in End-of-Life Revolt
By Shannon Pettypiece - Apr 11, 2013 12:01 AM ET

Claudia Burzichelli doesn’t want to die like her dad. Nine years ago, her father, already afflicted with Parkinson’s, killed himself with a gunshot to the head days after his release from a hospital where he had been treated for a heart attack.

Burzichelli, 54, now suffering from kidney and lung cancer, is haunted by her father’s violent death, even more so as she contemplates her own mortality. She hopes to find a more peaceful way to end her life, if it comes to that.
