Unless I am missing something, it doesn't seem like he is talking about assisted suicide, he is talking about euthanasia.

I know he mentions assisted suicide, but he never mentions anything about his father wanting to die. If somebody wants to die then I think they have a right to, but euthanizing someone just because you think they are suffering too much is just wrong. Even if I am laying in a hospital bed, and nobody else sees a reason to keep me alive, I still want to be given the chance to live, because I only get to do this once.
