Huge moment for the decency and compassion of those staring down the barrel of certain death. I've been following the movement for over a decade and it's been a long journey but it's finally here. People need to be given a humane option and the right to choose their own death rather than being forced to die a slow, painful, horrible death and leave their families with the memory of the shell of their former self.
