  Someone I love very much is paralysed from the neck down, blind and As of this year cannot eat or drink. She is still very much of sound mind and I believe still has an excellent quality of life. I wish I had her strength to carry on. However we have discussd this subject and should the pain get so bad this route may be an option. It's a shame that we cannot say to our doctors "right, at this stage I want to go". If you are of sound mind why can you not make your own decision. She is religious but until we experience the pain she sometimes goes through I don't k ow if we can judge what we would do.
  As for a doctor, good on him. It must be awful to ask your family to accompany you on such a journey as selfishly we all wait for a miracle. Someone like a doctor who knows you would be nice. I don't see how it's wrong for him as he gains nothing from the experience. Perhaps until it becomes legal here, and I suspect it will one day, he should be careful of what he is doing.
