When doctors told Brittany Maynard that her days were numbered due to a progressive brain tumor, the 29-year-old decided to take charge of her life, MyFox8.com reported.
Maynard has chosen November 1 as the day she will die.

So is this considered suicide? Apparently she's getting some sort of injection by nurses to do this. What do you think? Is she a coward? Do you understand the reasoning?
I would say I've been around a lot of cancer patients recently and I wouldn't blame them if they denied treatment. This process is honestly torturous. I'm not sure how I would feel if my mom decided a death date though.
