  I am totally against any legalisation of "assisted suicide", it is the start of a very slippery slope and open to unthinkable abuse. The world is not perfect and all families are not loving and caring, even the 'best intentioned' can be wrong in their understanding of others.
  
  The list of horror stories from the health service concerning lack of care and patients left unattended shows the danger in any legalisation. GP's are far too often inclined to put ailments down to age rather than looking for causes and, with increasingly tight budgets for diagnostic care "assisted suicide" could all too easily become a simpler option.
  
  If I get taken in with something nasty I want a sign pinned on me saying, "do everything you can to revive - I aint going".
