It's a tough situation and really can only be judged on individual cases. My grandmother was 91 when they found out she had cancer throughout her body and when she said to do nothing but let her die at home, well that's what we did. We didn't do anything to speed the process but we didn't no anything to hinder it either and if she'd been in a great deal of pain and wanted to die we probably would have supported giving her a lethal injection of morphine.
