think that doctor's should do what is morally right, and let the suffering patient keep receiving treatments, until they die, but sometimes it is too much for the patient to take, and so I believe that it is the patients choice.

I believe that if a patient is ready to die that their treatment should not be withheld, the doctor's should either keep giving the patient treatments, or take other measures to end the patients life....
