Jan and Els were married for almost five decades. In early June, they died together after being given lethal medication by two doctors. In the Netherlands, this is known as duo-euthanasia. It’s legal, and it’s rare - but every year, more Dutch couples choose to end their lives this way.

Hard to tell.
The Beeb leaves a lot if info out of this article.
Gee, I wonder why...
SNORT.
Sickening. They had friends to gather round as they murdered themselves, but no one to help them continue living?
But I guess when you live in a culture that doesn't value having children, old people become more of a burden.
Obviously, they didn't want to burden their one child, or minor grandchildren, with the job of caring for them, and no one else was apparently willing to do more than "support" them in their state-sponsored murder
And you thoroughly mis-read my post but still feel compelled to try and correct me.
I've been on internet forums since CompuServe, and you are far and away the most stupidly malignant poster I've ever seen.
I'd consider you a troll, if it weren't so obvious you're too stupid to troll, and your inanities are a perfect expression of your stunted intellect.
Lol, "mfer." How sad.
First, legible refers to handwriting, or print. It does not refer to style or meaning. Glad I could help you out with that one.

But again, thanks for trying to help.
You wear your name brilliantly. I’d add trash though.
You're the only one to bring gutter profanity into this exchange.
I make a relatively innocuous first post, you stupidly misread it, and feel compelled to correct me by calling me a liar and too stupid/lazy to read and understand the article.
You've been wrong about everything you've posted in this exchange, and all you got is the flaccid flailing of condemning my screen name.
Lol, do you think I care?
