The bill has passed, now onto the HoL

TheCatWoman

THIS TREAD IS ABOUT THE ASSISTED DYING BILL.

I'm glad it's passed, I know any people will disagree, and I respect thier choice, as I can't take any pain killers except paracetamol, this bill gives me some comfort that when the end is in sight, I have some choices and hopefully won't have to depart before I'm ready.

    For the record if I'm on my way out I want to be scooped up, put in an electric chair with a morphine drip so high I can't feel to much pain and then to spend my final days going out behaving outrageously in all the ways I've been too shy to before.

    Nuts to a quiet death. Better to go out with a bang.

    I think their needs to be a safeguard to make people truly feel the impact of their choices. Euthanasias is too easy to romanticise. The choice needs to be visceral to make sure people who are suffering (given pain and depression tends to impair judgment) really give it thought. Surely 5 minuets of pain should be nothing compared to weeks of agony and indignity?
