I don't know about that necessarily. This guy was 68 years old, odds are his kids were grown, if he had any. If it happened to me right now, my kids are ages 6 and 7. Getting even just a couple more years with them would be huge and that could be well worth the agony IMO.
I don't know what kind of history you have, but IMO I have a bit of a unique perspective at least among most of the people around here, having been through cancer treatment, and I know that my treatment while being pretty awful, was not nearly as bad as some kinds of cancer treatments get.
Once you get to the point that you are in constant pain, can't eat, can't sleep, can't piss or sh*t worth a damn, maybe you have a tube inserted directly into your gut because you can't keep anything down. You don't have the energy to go up/down the stairs of your house, let alone get outside, see family and spend time with them. They end up seeing you die a very graphic prolonged death that will affect them forever.
Not really what I want for the end of my life.
this is why ppl should be allowed to go out as they wish. to end their life when they are ready to do so. not have to be made to suffer because the law says they arent allowed to and drs/ppl cant help.
