I especially like Jackies approach to life, and death. I think the show about her friend Paula dying was brilliant. Jackie shows compassion coupled with intelligence. She did what her friend needed, and IMO, should be a decision that is personal and humane if there is no chance of recovery. Assisted death is not a new idea, but certainly one that is needed. Most of our health dollars are spent at the end of life to no use. If your dying, last ditch treatments are torturous, and futile. However, I am referring to terminal end stage patients who are in pain.
