Abstract
In February 2020, the Federal Constitutional Court of Germany issued a landmark judgement on assisted suicide. It rejected as unconstitutional a law from 2015 that prohibited "assisted suicide services". It emphasized the freedom of people to shape their own lives and deaths and to seek help in doing so. In contrast, other practical problems arise when a doctor is confronted with a request for assisted suicide at the bedside in the current situation. The different perspectives and their tensions are contrasted.
