End of Life decisions

Netflix has a very interesting documentary on end of life decisions.  Do you put your loved one on a ventilator, extend their life, but perhaps increase their suffering?  Or do you let nature take its course, but potentially lose time you could have with your loved one.  These are not easy decisions and one that the documentary Extremis tackles head on.  The film was nominated for an Academy Award for best short documentary and the trailer is below.
