The controversial issue of “dying with dignity” or having the right to die really started in America in the late 50s. Around this time, because of technological advances, the lives of terminally ill patients could be sustained longer. This aroused the question of if quality of life is better than quantity. This is such a controversial topic because doctor, above all else, are supposed to help people and to make them better. How do they help them if the only way to do so is assisting them in suicide?
