CNN.com - Paralysed woman wins right to die - March 22, 2002

I heard quite a bit about this case while I was in Ireland. Quite facinating. Her doctors were keeping her alive against her will, administering treatments against her will, and had judged her incapable of choising her own treatments. So she took it to court. And WON. This is a great step forward for personal freedom in not only British law, but in applications of consent to treatment laws elsewhere.
