  1. 1. If doctors use medication to extend people's lives, then why can't they use medication to end people's lives?
    2. The benefits of doulas.
    3. Make sure patients write down their wishes before.
    4. Sedation until death as another viable option.

  2. I believe that terminal patients should be given the right to request death-inducing drugs.
    -it saves the patient dignity that we should all be granted as human beings
    -over half of the patients whose wishes are rejected commit suicide without doctor assistance
    -doctors would be able to determine whether the patients have any chance of survival and help them to make the ultimate decision
    -the option for those matured enough to make such decisions about their lives should have the option to opt out of life itself, peacefully and in a clinical, safe, setting
