I wish I'd done it years ago

My grandmother died on Saturday. The funeral is today.
She was absolutely miserable the last few weeks of her life. She was 95, and spent a couple weeks constantly saying "I wish I would hurry up and die," and "I'm trying to die, but I just can't seem to."
This is such horseshit. The woman was terminally sick, and we all knew she was going to die soon. She WANTED to die, and we couldn't just give her enough morphine to make sure that happened. We were just able to give her enough drugs to ease her pain until after she was completely incoherent and unable to communicate for nearly ten days.
I hate all of this. I wish we had physician-assisted suicide. I wish there was an easy way out.
At least she's free. I'm envious of that.
