There was some confusion and some discussion over whether they were "just" letting these babies die a "natural death" or whether they were actively euthanasizing these babies. Well, in this follow-up story by the same author, the situation is made clear.

A hospital in the Netherlands — the first nation to permit euthanasia — recently proposed guidelines for mercy killings of terminally ill newborns, and then made a startling revelation: It has already begun carrying out such procedures, which include administering a lethal dose of sedatives.

In this country, we just instruct L & D nurse to leave the baby to die in the soiled linen room.

I will say that when my friend had her stillborn son, knowing that she did all she could for him allowed her to move on, and to try again.http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1291296/posts?page=74#74 She now has a beautiful one-year-old baby.

I wonder how these people live with themselves, and whether the people who "assist" with the "assisted suicide" really know whether they can handle the psychological effects of participation.

There is no difference between starving someone to death or "administering a sedative". Both are murder.
