http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/hereford/worcs/7773540.stm most probably a stupid question but.... can't suicide be achieved alone, without the need for assistance and legal trouble? Title: Re: assisted suicide Post by: yeo on Tuesday, December 9, 2008, 22:13:48 Wasnt the assistance them taking him out there to a clinic?
They didnt actually inject/give him pills. Title: Re: assisted suicide Post by: spacey on Tuesday, December 9, 2008, 22:14:24 can't suicide be achieved alone, without the need for assistance and legal trouble? Depends on the condition I suppose. If you've got something that limits your movement then you might require someone to sort things for you. Title: Re: assisted suicide Post by: janaage on Tuesday, December 9, 2008, 22:21:14 What a terrible situation to be in, a loved one wanting you to help them pass away. I'm glad they haven't had to face charges as i think they've suffered enough.
Title: Re: assisted suicide Post by: chalkies_shorts on Tuesday, December 9, 2008, 22:31:13 Personally I've no problem with it. If my quality of life was so low and it affected all those around me, I'd be mightilly pissed off if my loved ones didn't help me.
Title: Re: assisted suicide Post by: ron dodgers on Tuesday, December 9, 2008, 23:27:06 it's not a bad thing

Title: Re: assisted suicide Post by: Gazza's Fat Mate on Wednesday, December 10, 2008, 12:51:33 I already have a DNR order in my will and have left detailed instructions in my will regarding under what circumstances my family are to refuse medical treatment and let me die.
The thing I don't get is that vets are allowed to put a animal down if it is fucked but if you are a human you have to endure pain and suffering untill you die. The law should be changed to allow assisted sucide. Watching a loved one live for years in pain is not nice for anyone and I speak for personal experince as my mum had to suffer for years with MS untill thankfully she died but if took 10 years of living a live of pain before her body (not her mind) finally let her go. Title: Re: assisted suicide Post by: nevillew on Wednesday, December 10, 2008, 13:54:18 I already have a DNR order in my will and have left detailed instructions in my will regarding under what circumstances my family are to refuse medical treatment and let me die. If you left details in your will, surely they wouldn't come to light until you were dead ? Title: Re: assisted suicide Post by: Gazza's Fat Mate on Wednesday, December 10, 2008, 16:46:22 If you left details in your will, surely they wouldn't come to light until you were dead ? It's called a living will. Which is kind of iroinc as it deals with how you die. Title: Re: assisted suicide Post by: nevillew on Wednesday, December 10, 2008, 16:52:17 It's called a living will. Which is kind of iroinc as it deals with how you die. Is that a legal document then ? (genuine question) Title: Re: assisted suicide Post by: Gazza's Fat Mate on Wednesday, December 10, 2008, 17:00:57 It is not legaly binding but docotrs must take it in to account and in the real world I understand that they follow it to avoid any legal action against them.
All it is is a statmenet that sets out what treament I want and in what circumstances I want treatment and in what circumstances I do not want treatment. For exmaple if I am paralayesed from the neck down and can't walk I do not want any treatment that will prolong my life ie don't put me on a ventorlator. Due to the fact that I know alot of solcoitors mine is very detailed and has lots of legal stuff in it but it doesn't have to be. You can just write out your wishes and as long as you send a copy to your docotor it will go on your medical records and be taken in to account should you become illl. Title: Re: assisted suicide Post by: oxford_fan on Wednesday, December 10, 2008, 20:50:05 I think I'll cross those bridges if I ever come to them.

Title: Re: assisted suicide Post by: Samdy Gray on Wednesday, December 10, 2008, 21:32:01 Most life assurance only excludes suicide for the first 12 months. After that then it's easy money.
