Antwаn is diаgnоsed with а rare metabоlic disease that will result in him lоsing his life within the next year. Gradually, his energy levels will drop, his organs will fail and he will require extensive bed rest and multiple medical procedures to keep him alive longer. Yet, Antwan is not interested in receiving palliative care through a hospice. He does not wish to suffer physically or have his family and friends be inconvenienced and traumatized by caring for him. As a result, when his symptoms started to get worse, Antwan went to the Netherlands where he injected a fatal substance into his veins to end his own life. These types of doctor assisted end of life experiences are legal in the Netherlands and some other countries with rules and restrictions. What is the term for the experience that Antwan chose to pursue?
