'Painless death' or 'precipitous cliff'? Transsexual chooses euthanasia after failed operation - World News
Beyond the fact that the person was a transsexual . Is it right to allow euthanasia for mental trauma Im on the fence for this one . On one hand it was someone who was 44 years old not dying of a terminal illness . On the other the person could have committed suicide . and on the site it said "in a study Last week the Dutch government released figures showing that in 2012 there were 4,188 cases of euthanasia or assisted suicide, or almost 1 in 30 deaths, while in 2011 there were 3,695 such cases – a yearly jump of 13 percent. Most of these were by lethal injection and the majority were lethal injections given to patients in their homes." Their was a increase in euthanasia any constructive op welcomed .
