With those beliefs, please check into a Do Not Resuscitate Order. LWs are great but stopping something once it is started is difficult. A DNR can help keep measures from being started.

Absolutely Edna..... It is positively cruel to keep people alive
when they are suffering and there is no recovery in sight. The
only states that allow doctor assisted suicide are Oregon, Wash.
and Montana. It can't happen in my state of WV.  Dr. Kevorkian was
my hero. I'll be 80 my next birthday and it terrifies me to think
of not being able to end my life when I'm ready. I've signed a
Living Will requesting NO heroic measures, if I'm terminal, but
sometimes they keep you alive anyway.

  personally, I think we should do this for people too, end their
suffering. What quality of life does someone have who simply lays in bed in a vegetative state? Who are we keeping that person alive for?

accident, I would want my husband to use what money we had, go out and
  get as much booze and coke as he could get and let me go out with a
  bang ;)  But then again, that is just my opinion ;)
