I really don’t believe I’m reading this….come here and have a dig at Kent, and you can’t post here unless you’re having a go at Kent? Who is sadder, the person who posts such tripe or the person who reads it (and that’s not a dig at you Sarah)?
On second thoughts don’t answer that….

Tammy, surely you can see that Kent’s comment was intended tongue in cheek?
Lord for all the times I’ve heard Will and now you going on about how b!itchy it is and how people are picking on you, I can only think count your lucky stars you weren’t here before the clear out! The old crew would have made mincemeat out of you both.
Provided the appropriate controls are put into place, I am a supporter.
Most people who have sat with someone they care about when they’re dying – where that person has no chance of recovery and wants to be released from their pain whilst the doctors do everything they can to keep them alive for fear of being sued, where that person cannot end theiir suffering without help – would feel the same I think.
Many years ago I sat with someone I loved, his body was racked with pain despite all the pain relief the doctors gave him, and his condition was terminal. He asked me to just pop the pills out of the pack (something he couldn’t do) and put them out in front of him so that he could take them (distalgesics, he had enough to kill an elephant). We both sat there in tears, we both knew that I couldn’t do that. I just remember thinking “if you were a dog I’d be taken to court for causing unnecessary suffering, but because you’re a human I have to sit here and watch you suffer to the end”. The injustice of it was as distressing as the situation itself. Unfortunately I’m been in similar situations since.
I know that not everyone will agree, that some will say that life is precious (and of course it is) and that only God should take it away, I respect their views and hope that they will respect mine. But I do believe that people should be given the choice, and that those that care about them should be able to assist and be with them to the end without either party having to worry about repercussions.
