That's the whole problem, isn't it? Where do you draw the line... When have you tried every reasonable alternative? Suppose you have terminal cancer, and you end your life, and the very next day someone finds *the* cure? You simply cannot predict such things.

It is a difficult problem. However, the real disease could not have been discovered at all with your mother's suffering dragging on until she eventually dies naturally.
A cure for cancer could always be found the next day after my assisted suicide. Alternatively, I could hold out for years, suffering greatly, waiting for that cure that may not come.
