They imediatly intrerupted the treatment as they tought "Hey, it's ok from now on, nothing else to do" and the guy regressed and regressed and just become a veggetable in the propper sense. This guy personally didn't ask for euthanasia, but out there are more people like this, who would wish to die and they are artificially kept alive by family members. Those people don't really have the strenght to do it themselves and at some point, they don't even have the strenght to ask someone else to do it for them.
Atleast in the US you have an option to deal with this in your will. Family members cannot interfere with this option as long as you have it dealt with by legal means. If you don't deal with it prior your mental state can be used as a means to stop it.
