Tony Nicklinson is at peace at last RIP
Indeed.
Hopefully it will lead to Tony’s Law and allows us to have Living Wills and the right to die when we want in the event of illness or injury.
R.I.P. indeed.
I beleive if your of sound mind you should be able to have the choice of utinasia (clearly cant spell it) but if its a case where the doctors dont want to be the ones to end your life it should be done in a way where theres a few doctors who are involved so none of them know which one did the leathal injection, or have speific doctors who agree with it.
One of Tony’s points was he felt being disabled the decision not to let him chose when he ends his life was infact a disability inequality, as an abled person he could in effect end his life when he wanted, via suicide i guess he meant, but being disabled he can’t.
A point i’ve never really thought about before and a darn good point too. I know its slightly different because someone would have had to actually do it for him, but i guess his arguement is so do people that have to feed bathe etc people with physical disabilities.
Can of worms the whole euthanasia thing i know, but the suffering some people endure as they reach the end of their life is horrible for them, truly awful, and as has been said before you wouldn’t let a dog suffer in this way.
I’m glad for him that his suffering has at last reached its end and he can now rest in peace x
