some may want to recover yet be ignored, some will be too confused or sick and frail to even speak and explain if they want to live and go home. people with dementia say they want to die 50 times a d\ay, then the next day theyre happy as larry, eating and chatting....the human mind and body is unbelievably complex, then throw in old age and medication and it becomes almost impossible to decipher what exactly people really mean... if just 1 innocent person dies as a result of this law legalising euthanasia, then it wouldnt be worth it. sadly lots of frail innocent people would die unnecessarily. we need to work on hospices, we need to study the dnr programme closer, we also need to radically improve our entire nhs. the improvements are not just down to money, its down to structure, management, prioritising the use of scanners and tests and its about the moral code of the nhs and every single person who works within in. as a society its also about us respecting the nhs too
