Euthanasia and the Care of the Elderly
Houses of Parliament


Dr Brian Iddon MP and ALERT invited Wesley J Smith and Professor Peter Millard, MD, FRCP, a distinguished geriatrician, to be guest speakers on Tuesday 14th March 2006 at the House of Commons. Dr Brian Iddon MP explained, "Euthanasia and the care of the elderly seem to be getting too close together. Now people are expected to sign their own death warrants, with legally binding Living Wills. These are supposed to give patients 'choice', but only one 'choice' will be respected. If you want to opt in advance for continued treatment should you become helpless, as Leslie Burke does, you are given no right to it"
