Re: Terry Pratchett: Choosing To Die

Yes that is a must, the patient has to make the decission and the family go to support nothing else.

It showed last night that the person wanting to pass away had to have 2 in depth meetings with a doctor. One when they arrived and the 2nd one 24hrs later to make sure it is what they wanted.

When they are then taken to the appartment were it happens they were again asked on numerous occassions that they were sure that they wanted to go through with it. The nurse even said you will get fed-up of me asking but I want to make sure this is what you want.
