Cranford is a well known "expert" in the following fields fields
  1. Overdiagnosing people as PVS
  2. Saying PVS people have no constitutional rights
  3. Promoting the right to "physician assisted suicide"
. Isn't "kill" too strong a word for euthanasia?
Answer: No. The word "kill" means "to cause the death of." In 1989, a group of physicians published a report in the New England Journal of Medicine in which they concluded that it would be morally acceptable  for doctors to give patients suicide information and a prescription for deadly drugs so they can kill themselves.

Dr. Ronald Cranford, one of the authors of the report, publicly acknowledged that this is "the same as  killing the patient."
