Debbie Purdy, who suffers from multiple sclerosis wants the High Court to clarify the law on assisted suicide. She is considering travelling to Switzerland - where assisted suicide is legal - to end her life.

Personally I think our law's regarding this matter should be changed to allow assisted suicide in the correct circumstances. Why should this woman have to suffer the last few months/years of her life and lose all dignity. We last had our law regarding this matter reviewed in 2006 and lost in a close call.

She is having to consider actually ending her life before she even fall's seriously ill, which is a waste of life.

Your thought and comments.

I admire her courage in persuing this, and hope that the law is changed. People in these awful circumstances should be supported, not persecuted.

Well as I have a partner with MS i can kind of see both sides of this.

Whilst i dont agree with taking a life, I can see that if someone wants it and some one you care about circumstances might and all that ........
