Summary:
In this interview, we discuss the ethics of voluntarily stopping eating and drinking (VSED), which is an end-of-life option that some people choose to cause their own deaths. One issue we focus on is VSED and advance directives and the possibility that a person may express contrary wishes (from their earlier self) when suffering from dementia.
