me too
I have a living will stating very specifically what I want done which amounts to almost nothing other than pain relief
Assisted suicide near the end would be something that both I and my guy would like to have as an option
I have removed my closest girlfriend from making decisions regarding my life as she would keep me plugged in and breathing for as long as possible...that is not my wish.
no intervention without quality of life and no keeping me going on some ventilator just in case they find a cure...
turn off the switch
too many people lay there choking on their own mucus for months...it is inhumane and despicable.
my animals go out so nicely
It is silly that we have laws preventing it. I think it needs to be controlled. I don't want someone coming over and killing me tonight and saying I was asking for it. But if you are terminal, I think it should be allowed.
Also, why would the article mention his claim to fame being star of X-Men? His claim to fame is and always be being Captain Jean Luc Pickard. His accomplishments as a stage actor and X-Men are secondary.

He's right, I agree completely. When you are at the end, when you are faced with suffering, you should have the right to leave this world with a little dignity.
Sounds like something Trudeau would say.
Good for him.
In a world where abortion is finally accepted, there's no reason why we need to keep people alive to die a painful death.
Not at all surprising given his history. Cool.
For me its not so much the dignity. I honestly couldn't care less about the condition of my body as I'm dying or after I'm dead. Its more the physical pain Id prefer to avoid. The rest - meh. It happens to everyone sooner or later.
Not to everyone. Also, he hasn't done anything Star Trek related acting wise in nearly 15 years. He is still doing X-men movies and stage plays regularly. The latter he has been doing most of his life.

Trudeau would be more the Wesley Crusher type rather than the Picard type.
Lol
I will let this one slide even though I disagree.
Picard actually
But most people today would better recognize him for X-Men, especially since the latest movie just came out.
From the OP's link:
Agreed 100%
"You and the Captain Make it Happen!"
The last Star Trek Movie he was in was Nemesis which was from 2002 (12 years ago)
... And how come nobody has brought up one of his more famous roles as King Richard?
"From this day forth, all the toilets in the kingdom shall be known as... johns!"
Let's also not forget Avery Bullock from American Dad:
Yep, but he did it. A genius.
Always wantede to be e a pote, but hadd problems with speling.
maybe in todays world that wouldn't necessarily keep one back.
at my vet's they have a small comfortable room set aside...
last three cats went to the vet and they place a small IV line into their leg
they barely notice it
when you are ready the vet places the needle into the the little IV and they just go limp in your arms

Yep, 12 which is nearly 15. Its been well over 15 years since he was in a good one.
I had a bad experience with that. My dog totally freaked out during the injection. He was dead within seconds as is normal but his freak out was totally unexpected, even to the vet. Still, better than starving to death which is what would have happened if we hadn't put him down.
