The desperately ill patients end their lives

    I recently learned that desperately ill patients will be able to instruct relatives to end their lives. They will have the right to appoint a family member or friend to tell doctors to withdrawn the tubes feeding them when they become too ill to communicate.

    The historic ruling over Tony Bland told doctors it was in Bland’s best interests that he should be allowed to die through the withdrawal of treatment. Critics said the new rules- slipped out by ministers during the final days of the local election campaign – amount to the legalization of euthanasia.

    Do you justify such a death?
