If you are diagnosed with a terminal illness and your doctor says nothing more can be done, do you believe it should be your right to decide when you die? And do you believe it should be legal for a doctor to prescribe you medication that can can kill you? Physician assisted death, some call it death with dignity others call it assisted suicide, is not legal in Ohio nor in most states. There's a push to change that.
