This is a very striking article, and I feel it gave me some important things to consider when it comes to medical decisions like this. While I'm still (very) young, and hopefully won't have to deal with this sort of thing for many years, I hope that when I am in the position of choosing to prolong an uncomfortable life, or dying with a little more dignity, I will be brave enough to choose the cheaper and potentially less painful option for all involved.

Absolutely. Reading it I was thinking that I also want to die without a fight, without the last desperate medical torture.

But perhaps it's only the experience of seeing how people suffer in prolonged death that makes doctors brave enough to face death that way.
