Her case has spawned a national debate with pro-life advocates saying better pain relief, palliative care, and medical support is the answer for patients like Echevarria, not death. Having muscular dystrophy would be horrible, but it's not something to end a life over.

I can't believe I used to think like these Socialists!!!
It makes me sad that so many people are without hope and not willing to live. I can understand pain management or hospice, but I can't understand assisted suicide.

Suffering is a subjective term. Either she's really suffering or someone convinced her that she was so now she wants to die. We are what we think. Unfortunately, other people play upon vulnerabilities.
