Boudreau, J. Donald. "Physician Assisted Suicide." www.nejm.org. New England Journal of Medicine, 11/4/2013. Web. 22 Oct 2013. <http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMclde1302615#t=cldeOpt1>

An article discussing why physician assisted suicide is unacceptable in a given situation.  Provides insight and arguments against physician assisted suicide, saying that while the patient is in a state of grief, it is a doctors duty to do everything they can to aid the patient and attempt to save them.

I feel that this is a good article to use as it provides a lot of information on the topic, but from one side only.  There is a companion article that should be read as well to get both sides.  I personally found the article helpful and accurate in describing the negatives of physician assisted suicide.
