But that's my entire point. I object not to the information, but the way it's framed as its presented. The booklet is an endless series of anecdotes and "questions", designed to lead you to understand euthanasia is okay in case A, in case B, in case C. But what about the guy who doesn't want to be euthanized in case A, B or C? There's nothing in the booklet that supports that point of view, though this is put forward as "an objective look at end of life issues", but it's not. It's a defense of euthanasia, and if anything, hints strongly that it's the preferable course of action.
Again, for the record, I strongly believe in the Hemmingway plan. I just do NOT believe it's my right to make that decision for somebody else, or even sway somebody else to make the same decision.
