Medical Advances

People live longer
-->A person who is suffering from a terminal illness has a reduced quality of life, but because of medical advances they live with that terminal illness longer.

-->We look at quantity over quality.

Ending the suffering

Dying with dignity
-->"Peace of mind" knowing you can decide when and how you want to die
--> It is only for persons with terminal illness, who are nearing the end
--> "Who owns my life?" -Sue Rodrigues
