Not that it's an urgent issue right now I'd imagine Vicky... But just to prewarn you, if they think you've helped someone commit suicide you still might end up going to jail.

That was my point. But she countered that with (if she was in a wheelchair and unable to help herself but 'all there' in the head) finding her some pills or something wouldn't bring suspicion on me :/ Which I countered with...well you could find your own bloody pills but she was adamant She then said if she wasn't 'all there' in the head and I pushed her over a cliff or something, that wouldn't be suspicious either as she could well have jumped...

Was such a strange convo and not one you want to have with your mother. I tried to put it all on my brother...as he is training to be a doctor so would be able to help much more than I could and she came back with...well your brother or sister would be hysterical and crying about it and upset where I know you understand this and you are 'cold' and I know you wouldn't let emotions get in the way

Edit. This brings me back (again) to euthanasia should be legal tbh. People could sign something earlier in life (like my mother) if they were adamant they didn't want to end up in that situation.

Yeah I agree, although you could imagine it could be open to abuse as well

It could be...but if you need to get consent from 2 seperate doctors. And if someone decides early in life it can be countersigned (?) like wills are, where it is all above board and checked

Yeah, there would have to be very tight conditions with it, maybe a psychological evaluation too
