First I think Assisted Suicide is a misleading description of a person choosing to end their suffering so henceforth I refer to Assisted Death.
The clarification of the ruling on Assisted Death is of Paramount importance to many subscribers to this site. Indeed the Report is giving a hint of certain relaxations. This will be welcome news to many in acute pain with conditions beyond help. It will also give comfort for those not at this stage yet .
Additionally there is hope for those who would normally have the prospect of depending on morphine etc to get from day to day not forgetting the stress and hardship it gives to loved ones.
I Hope you will all beam in on this and make your views known. It will give many of us the opportunity to snub this disease before it beats us!!
I Have put these views to the Macmillan Cummunity Team and they have requested me to write this Blog to try and monitor the amount of feeling by subscribers, so I ask you all to make your contribution which will give Macmillan a sound base from which to make representations to the Government, Vernon Cooper (Kidney Cancer)
