    The human race has the right to be free and to live their life as they wish. Men and women should be allowed to make personal decisions in life‚ including careers or hobbies. But no one talks about the decision of their own death. Terminally-ill patients are suffering by the minute and continue to suffer until they eventually die by a biological failure.

After spending an enormous time researching both sides of the argument‚ I still
