Transsexual Helped To Die In Belgium After 3 Failed Operations
October 3, 2013
This case scares me. By covering it, I am not suggesting that being transsexual, in itself, is in any way a disability. However, I personally think that the case is a sign of how any law for assisted death could be misused, if there was to be any such law introduced in Britain.
Even if this man was depressed, and this seems, from the story, quite possible, I personally have to wonder whether depression requires someone to opt for assisted death, I have to wonder whether this man, or any depressed person, would not be physically able to end their own life without assistance.
This is a point that should, in my personal opinion, be considered very seriously before the introduction of any law supporting assisted death in Britain.
