Advance directives are the solution to Dr Campbell's problem for voluntary euthanasia
Journal of Medical Ethics 25 (3):245-246 (1999)
Abstract
Dr Neil Campbell suggests that when patients suffering extremes of protracted pain ask for help to end their lives, their requests should be discounted as made under compulsion. I contend that the doctors concerned should be referred to and then act upon advance directives made by those patients when of sound and calm mind and afflicted by no such intolerable compulsionOther Versions
