Having PAS gives patients the right to die as they wish, in a humane way. Without PAS, patients may try another way to deal with their pain, such as committing suicide on their own terms. With PAS, patients could end their lives peacefully and not horribly. This way, patients get what they want. Güth tells the story of a 54-year-old woman who decided to commit suicide by jumping in front of a train. This lady suffered from a form of breast cancer and had just learned that her cancer was getting worse. She had undergone palliative care, chemotherapy and nothing seemed to help her. By jumping in front of a train 2 weeks after learning she had been diagnosed with another cancer, she committed suicide. She said goodbye to her loved ones through a letter she left behind (Güth et al 1040). With just the letter the lady left in the aforementioned story, the family didn't have any sort of closure with how she was forced to end her life.
