The Pooka 26 Posted October 4, 2006 Indian woman suffering from cancer fasts to death Since she's a Jain I guess she'll come back as a stick insect. Not necessarily. Reincarnation is a tenet of the more complex Jains. I believe, however, that she was a plain Jain. Boom, Boom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DevonDeathTrip 2,358 Posted July 14, 2007 Jimmy Dale Bland, 49, is due to be executed in Oklahoma on Tuesday. Mr Bland is suffering from lung cancer which has spread to his adrenal glands and his spinal column, he is not expected to live more than a few months anyway. Oklahoma Attorney General Seth Branham is not exactly charitable in his appraisal of the situation. ""He claims that because he's got cancer, that's a reason to let him go ahead and live a year or so and die on his own terms. If that's what he wanted, he shouldn't have shot Windle Rains in the back of the head," Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,646 Posted July 14, 2007 Heard an unnerving interview with a guy from Dignitas - that Swiss organisation that arrange suicides for terminal and suffering people - this morning. The unnerving bit being that they openly discussed the way they help people suffering terribly with mental illness. I've no idea how sincere they are or how bad the suffering of the mentally ill cases but: it is - of course - possible that we have closet Shipmans on one side helping the feckless and suicidal on the other. Dignitas, Wiki page. Not that I'm suggesting anyone take it up. I mean, it's £3000 a pop with them. Just come to West Cumbria, order a Campari and Soda, eyeball the biggest guy in the bar, say 'What's your f****n' problem?' and you'll never need to worry again.

They did him a favour, it would have been more unpleasant dying slowly from lung cancer. Whoops. No one had informed me it was already July. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Monoclinic 39 Posted August 5, 2007 Morgue mixups I confess, I couldn't help but laugh at the last two lines... Meanwhile, there was a similar incident in another town in Buenos Aires province when a baby girl was born prematurely. Doctors tried to revive her, but she was declared dead shortly afterwards and the body taken to the morgue. But several hours later, she was found crying. The mother was called and declared her daughter to be a miracle. Unfortunately, she died three days later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
