Delaware Becomes 11th State to Legalize Physician-Assisted Suicide
Breitbart ^ | 05/21/2025 | Katherine Hamilton

Posted on 05/21/2025 9:36:20 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Delaware Democrat Gov. Matt Meyer signed a bill on Tuesday legalizing physician-assisted suicide for terminally ill patients given six months or less to live.

Meyers claimed the measure, called the End-of-Life Options Act, is about “compassion, dignity, and respect for personal choice.” The bill, which will take effect next year, allows those patients to request a prescription to self-administer and end their lives, Fox News Digital reported.

“We’re acknowledging today that even in the last moments of life, compassion matters,” Meyer said at the bill signing. “Every Delawarean should have the right to face their final chapter with peace, dignity, and control.”

Who knows what is really going on with Biden? But he has definitely become a liability for the Democrats including Jill and they want him out of the picture.

“This is the latest COVID vaccine booster, right?

I watched my wife die from stage-4 cancer. Even morphine was of not much help to ease the pain. But she was brave and fought to stay alive till the end. I am not sure I can handle that much pain.

It absolutely is the orbit where these socalled laws eventually fall into.

Satan goes about like a roaring lion to see who he can devour. Its so much easier when corrupted reprobate human governments become willing ‘Beasts’ in his kingdom.

I will wait until God says its time.

For some people, that is sooner than for others.

Such a progressive state. They also allow you to be composted rather than buried or cremated.

I saw my father go through the same thing: like Biden, prostate cancer had spread to his bones.

I would have never thought a human being could fight so hard to live. My mom asked his oncologist for a higher dose of fentanyl when his pain got stronger, but he said my father was already at a sublethal dosage.

He took my mom aside and gave her a prescription for a bunch of the highest dosage tablets he could write. He told her to discuss it with my dad, and if it got to be too much, he could swallow a bunch of those and it would be over. My dad never exercised that option.

I think that's the way it should be handled: quietly, in private between the doctor and family. With the affected person ultimately making the decision.

Not like the Netherlands, where the family gets tired of taking care of granny and hold her down against her will while the doc administers a lethal injection, like a vet putting down a horse.

When countries in Europe did this old people were afraid to go to their own doctor lest he decide on his own the patient has no “quality of life” left and kill them.
