But It's Their Right

From LifeSiteNews:

A woman suffered severe pain after taking a fatal dose of poison at a Zurich suicide facility, crying in pain for four minutes before falling into a coma, the German news source Deutsche Welle reported yesterday.

According to a report in Zurich’s SonntagsZeitung news last Sunday, the 43-year-old woman suffered from a brain tumor. After taking a toxic concoction prepared by Dignitas employees, the woman known as A.H. cried out, “It’s burning. I’m burning,” before succumbing to the poison and falling into a coma. It took another 38 minutes for her to die, according to the SonntagsZeitung.

Despite Dignitas’ claim of offering a peaceful and dignified death to those who approach the organization, the report said one man endured a lingering death over three days. Known as Peter A., a German, the man spent three days in a coma before finally succumbing to the poison given him by the Dignitas team, the Zurich newspaper reported.

There was also a British husband and wife, Robert and Jennifer Stokes, who committed suicide together at the same facility, yet neither one was terminally ill.

Somehow, I don't think the "right to die" thing is working out very well.
