Gonna be weird if he actually does get the go-ahead. If he does and a date is set in stone for 2013, will he be eligible for DDP selection or will that be too similar to executions?

 

Well it's irrelevant for now, anyway, he's lost his case.

 

If your wife / husband / child / loved one etc was in a similar position and they asked you to kill them would you ?

 

I think that is a question that nobody could answer until they were in that position. Seeing him weep when given the court's decision today was awful. I can't help but feel sorry for the guy.

 

 

Best of a bad job might be to clear a few quid by getting him into the next series of The Undateables on Channel Four.

 

Haven't you used that gag already?

Wouldn't need a gag, a pillow would do...........

 

 

 

 

Ah, missed a post.

I have been in such a situation, when my dad was mostly paralysed after a series of strokes. He made it clear to me that he lost his will to live. He lived in a Roman Catholic care home at the time and from a chat I had with his physician there I learned that there was nothing they would do but let him rot. I seriously considered killing him, but decided against it. After all, there was little chance I'd get away with it and several years in prison wouldn't improve my life.

 

He died three years later, from another stroke.

 

regards,

Hein

Sorry to hear that hein life can be cruel at the best of times but as you get older life always seems to find a way to kick you extra hard in the teeth . I don't think I could visit my parents if they were in that state , people may think that is selfish or cruel but its the fact you don't want to see your parents in pain or suffering and that to be your last memory of them.

 

Sorry again about your dad.

I wonder how he got pneumonia either he refused food or she left him out in the garden all night or both .

In a garden, in a tin bath full of cold water, no food, possibly.

 

Still, probably treated better than quite a few husbands I can think of...

If she did do that I think she done the right thing , If my wife or g/f had this and she asked me to do it I would.

 

At least he isn't suffering now .

In truth, you can't really know how you'd react to someone asking you to help them die, and can only hope it's a scenario youll never find yourself in

I wonder who will be next in the Stallone family, after all these things come in threes. Or in Stallone's case, sixes...

If you want to watch someone enter endgame, my DDP captain this year, L!sa Lynch, is being very ominous on her Twitter account and has gone from light-hearted banter about reality TV to indications that she's spending more and more time at her hospice.
