Physician Assisted Suicide debate. [View all]
This is, again under discussion.
A primary objection seems to be about relatives pressuring people to end their lives because they don't want the care burden or worry about the cost of long term care.
What about the possibility of a downloadable statement. "I do not and never will want physician assisted suicide as an action for myself." Or a similar statement.
They can sign it and give it to their primary physician(s) as part of their care folders. It can also be given to their attorneys.
Would this be a reasonable answer to that objection?
