Thank you for that clarifying article Dr. Nitschke. You covered a couple of issues that I wasn't too clear on.

The fact that your organisation (EXIT) even exists has given me great hope that should I ever be taken ill by an incurable and painful disease, the end will not be as horrible as for those who have been forced to go through unimaginable torment due to a thoughtless element in society that deem it to be outside of an individuals right to put an end to suffering.

Dr. Nitschke, you're a great man and I hope to live long enough to see most, if not all of your principles put into practice.
Thank you.

hello

u may read a lot about the no. of incidents and reasons that cause to suicide....some times we feel that the reasons are silly...but once we are bugged up with life the decision would be suicide....

What a shame that the flat-earthers and the god-botherers still run our society!

Each person should have the right to end their lives when they want to. And they should be able to do it with dignity and without suffering.

Thanks heavens for people like the good Doctor who is desperately trying to overcome ignorance and superstition.

David G,

"the flat-earthers and the god-botherers still run our society!"

Nah, it's indifference and hypocrisy that runs our country....it's always Someone Else's Problem (SEP) to make it happen.

Your avoidance of personal responsibility by blaming others is typical and thread bare.

Many agree in principle but can't be bothered to sort out the practice.
Philip, has paid a high cost for his stance only because others won't stand up to be counted untill they can't hide.
