A helpless man whose life has been 'destroyed by cancer' as he 'suffocates to death' wants to be given the option to terminate his own life. Stephen James Davies, 62 says his life is 'worse than a nightmare' as he suffers from excruciating pain every day which leaves him struggling to walk to his kitchen without gasping for breath.
The 62-year-old from Cardiff was diagnosed with stage four lymphoma cancer and had been ill for many years in the lead up to his diagnosis, Wales Online reports. The distressed man who doesn't necessarily 'want to die' insists he is not considering 'suicide' but says he 'should really be allowed to end my life now respectably'.
Mr Davies, who heartbreakingly admits he 'thinks about dying every day', said: "I'm basically suffocating to death here, I'm getting pain in my body, it's worse than a nightmare. I'm living this dreadful life, I have no autonomy, I'm getting worse.
