  The vast majority – around 96% - had a death deemed “reasonably foreseeable”, due to severe medical conditions such as cancer.

    I fully support the right for people to decide when and how they want to exit this world. To me it’s a fundamental human right. I am not condoning suicide out of despair but when someone has a life that isn’t worth living due to illness or disability, they should be able to choose. I live in one of the few states that allows self choice in certain situations.
