Autonomy, the right to make one’s own choices, is one of the 4 classical ethical tenets of medicine.There is no logical or ethical reason for this to be denied, especially at death, the “most intimate moment” of one’s life. @sarahwootton.bsky.social @dignityindying.org.uk

Why can't I choose when to die? Opponents of assisted dying are denying people freedom to determine their own end

"it’s my death I’m talking about, probably the most intimate moment in my life, and I resent anyone who wants to step in the way and tell me how they believe it has to happen." @anthonyhorowitz.com on how his mother's death shaped his view on assisted dying www.newstatesman.com/politics/soc...
