I think that is spot on Margaret. When you have seen somebody suffer and had the experience of caring for those people while they are suffering unfathomable pain you sometimes find that your attitude towards the situation changes. I think somebody would have to be extremely hard hearted not to want to help somebody end that kind of situation. It is extremely upsetting for the carers to be asked for that help, whether it's family or hospital/nursing home staff, because we know there is legally nothing we can do. Anyone who is not upset in that kind of situation shouldn't be caring
