Re: Assisted Dying
I remember you saying this Stan and appreciate how you would feel. My sister died of lung cancer and chose to leave hospital and die at home. That was 40 years ago in London. I was with her when they told her it might be better with a syringe driver. She had one and peacefully fell asleep as the two nurses check the dosage each day and other nurses came in shifts. She had a very peaceful death. Sadly I have seen this twice since . Peacefully with no pain. This law horrifies me, as it will be watered down, the same way as abortion( which I did agree with) is. It sounds right as it is presented to us, but it will have dreadful affects in the future for elderly people, who might think they are a burden to their family. Also to the young handicapped.
