Assisted Dying (kind of)

[Darran]

Let’s have (another) heated debate.

I was talking to a guy a week ago that informed me that a woman my wife and I knew had passed away through cancer in hospital.

He said “she was in a bad way Dar and she didn’t last long in hospital they clearly helped her on her way.”

I didn’t really say much but I’ve heard that knd of suggestion several times over the years.

I wouldn’t be against it myself depending on the circumstances but does anyone actually believe that to be true?

For the record I don’t.

No.

 

[Pentyrchjack]

Yes, fluids are withdrawn.

 

[Darran]

Yes, fluids are withdrawn.

Without the family knowing they’re purposely killing a member of their family?

With the family aware that fluids are being withdrawn - it's a really fine line
