In other words, her entire case was agenda driven, her cancer wasn't necessarily even terminal.

I got question I hear that they offer to remove the tumor before became out of control but she refuse it she was more driven to end her life and badmouth French medical community
So she was media ho
This explains why we don’t see cases like this. I can understand her being afraid of socialized medicine but cmon. Did she just refuse to accept that she had cancer?
My guess is that she fell under the sway of the culture of death and never realized that their agenda was to kill her, they didn’t care if she had a treatable condition.
I knew a child (10 at the time) who had frequent nose bleeds, and was treated with Flonase. This didn’t solve the problem, but the parents just blew it off, until they noticed that her eyeglasses didn’t sit right on the bridge of her nose. They finally took her to an ENT doc, had a
CT scan, and they discovered a tumor in her sinuses. She was diagnosed with a “non-osseous (non-bone) Ewings Sarcoma” (extremely rare; Ewing’s Sarcomas are known as bone tumors). She had surgery and then chemo, and was able to go into remission, and as far as I know, is still doing well 7 years later.
And yet here is a lady who had the opportunity for a “fix”, and didn’t take it. When I first saw her picture, I felt bad for her. I’m rethinking that after reading this story. She was “horribly disfigured” mainly by choice. She didn’t choose the cancer, but she did choose to let it get out of control.
My suspicion, as I posted earlier, is that she succumbed to the evil agenda of the culture of death. She was probably gullible and believed their “experts” over the advise of doctors who were prepared to treat her. The entire situation was a tragedy, but it now sounds as if her pain and death could have been prevented with proper treatment.

We can postulate ad infinitum about this particular case, and she may have let her cancer get out of control and for any number of reasons, but the concept of suicide for those who choose it is still utterly valid.
You will never convince me that I should have my hands bound if I should ever be sick enough to want to end my suffering.
Physician assisted— that’s another argument, I suppose. For me, a .45 to the temple will suffice just fine. But not everyone wants to go out that way, for their own sake, the sake of their families, etc.
There really should be a simple, available tool available that can be operated by the terminally ill to end their own suffering.
And, no, I am not religious— so sue me / pray for me/ whatever.
Just googled her name and read where she has been found dead,,,no details,,
why do they need a physician ? they can simply OD by whatever “route” they want—orally, mainline ,both.
all this drama.
no street pharmacists/dope dealers in france ?
It’s horrible that this happened, but it now seems that her condition was completely treatable (and that’s coming from TIME magazine, not a pro-life site).
I agree, no physician need be involved. You should be able to go to a “right to die” rental store, pick up a machine that will inject you with whatever they give prisoners for lethal injection, and off you go.
I really don’t want you to get my doctor in tune with assisted suicide.
A nearby cliff will work as well.

No offense, but I truly believe you are certifiably insane.
