Dr. Doherty will understand why, because they are hard scenarios, as we all know, where somebody does take their own life because they know what they are facing. I have first-hand experience with this. Regardless of what kind of modern medicine we have, they know they face an extremely difficult number of months. No human being should have to go through that. That is why I think scenarios should be considered.
