Assisted Dying Stalled in Parliament | Cork News

While countries like Switzerland and Canada have legalized it, even the UK is delaying action, focusing instead on palliative care. The report, which proposed assisted dying for those with terminal illnesses or certain neurodegenerative conditions, was officially noted by the Dáil last October. Now, pressure mounts for the government to either act or explain why they’re letting this critical issue linger. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
