Video: British TV shows assisted suicide

I debated whether to post it and came down in favor because (a) I figured some of you would be curious as to how Dignitas operates; (b) it’s big news in Britain, with Gordon Brown having come down on the libertarian side by declaring it “a matter of conscience”; and (c) they don’t show the moment of death, although evidently they did in the full-length documentary. The lingering question has to do with what the anti-euthanasia doctor says about the possibility that Ewert would have had a painless natural death. How fully informed does consent have to be under these circumstances to qualify as “informed”?
