I Don't Have to Get It to Be It

Is Assisted Death Ever Moral?

A woman asks if assisted death is ever a moral thing to do, explaining that her husband lives in assisted living with severe dementia, and his doctor suggested she bring him home and withhold food and water for a peaceful medicated death. Rupert asks if he appears to be suffering. She answers no. He refers to how animals know when it is time in nature and suggests there is no violence in that, nor is it a denial of life. But in this case, Rupert suggests that there is still some time for them to spend together. Rupert suggests, as this unfolds, to always ask, 'What would your husband want?'
