EXCERPT:
A high proportion of deaths classed as euthanasia in Belgium involved patients who did not ask for their lives to be ended, a study found.
More than 100 nurses admitted to researchers that they had taken part in ‘terminations without request or consent’.
Although euthanasia is legal in Belgium, it is governed by strict rules which state it should be carried out only by a doctor and with the patient’s permission.
The disturbing revelation - which shows that nurses regularly go well beyond their legal role - raises fears that were assisted suicides allowed in Britain, they could never be properly regulated.

It is likely many nurses ‘ under-reported’ their involvement for fear of admitting an illegal activity, the study said.

Last night, Dr Peter Saunders, director of the Care Not Killing campaign in Britain, said: ‘We should take a warning from this that wherever you draw the line, people will go up to it and beyond it.’

My husband and I have been caring for his 102 year old mother for the last 5 years. She’s a spunky lady, has stories like you can’t believe, and we’ve enjoyed having her with us. We are planning a move as we’ve both retired and will have to let her stay in a nursing home for a few months as we tidy up our current place to sell, find a new place in our retirement area, and get a new house ready with lifts, etc. Messy and tedious, yes, but for God’s sake, she is our family. I pray she lives through the trauma of a nursing home for a couple of months so we can all be back together in our new locale.
