Dying with Dignity.

              I recently read an article about, a terminally ill cancer patient named Brittany Maynard who ended her own life, after being told she only had 6 months to live. She did this to die with dignity since the medicine she was taking would  have harsh side affects that would have helped extended her life but she would have died slowly.She recieved a lot of negative backlash when she first came out that she was going to take her own life, since others viewed it as suicide.To her thoughs people were evil since she felt, that she was already dying so it was her choice to go with diginty since it is less terrifying.To me there was nothing wrong with Ms.Maynard decision to end her own life, since she was already sick and would have suffered a long painful death since the side effects are crucial.What are your thoughts on Ms.Maynard's decision to die with dignity.
