Supreme Court nominee Neil Corsuch wrote a book in 2006 titled “The Future of Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia.” He refers to this practice as “consensual homicide,” focusing on Oregon and Washington.
The people of Oregon and Washington voted “Death with Dignity” into law. It was the will of many, not one individual writing a book.
“Death with Dignity” is a personal choice. A person with six months or less to live can request the doctor to prescribe “end of life medication.” To the end of life, the patient retains the right and personal choice to use, or not use, this medication.
There is palliative care where doctors and nurses council the patient and family on the process and give care up to the patient’s final decision.
