I'm lost for words. Least the other guy was saved. What a stupid thing to do unless it was his intention all along.Death with Dignity: When the Medical Aid in Dying Cocktail Gets into the Wrong Hands
This is a case presentation on how Denver Health medics navigated the moral, legal and medical decisions on a death with dignity call gone awry.
Am I crazy to think that MAID should be administered under controlled conditions? It seems crazy to me that this was allowed to happen in the first place. This can't have a good look, which would make it a step backwards.
Seems obvious to me that the younger man also wished to ctb, if not, they are certainly crazy as well. I don't think it was accidental unless somehow the dwd elder guy invited everyone to his death party but neglected to mention the details, which would be even more insane, such as "this drink is the lethal one", so it surely wasn't an accident.
Wait... what?
A man thought it was a good idea to take a 'sip' of his friend's assisted suicide cocktail
After his terminally ill friend described the preparation as bitter, 'this patient ingested an unknown-sized "sip" of the preparation.'nationalpost.com
It happened TWICE??
The one I linked is a separate but extremely similar and more recent case, that happened almost identically, except with a 37 y/o instead of a 35 y/o.
It looks like it, but the older story OP posted was in Colorado, and the more recent one in Denver, with about a year in between them. Perhaps it's a copy cat. Denver guy read about what the Colorado guy did and decided to repeat history.
I'm not from the US, but isn't Denver in the state of Colorado?
It's the capital. I assume the distinction is because one was in Denver, and one was not. Colorado is pretty big, they don't both have to be in the capital. Maybe they both were, maybe they don't know, the original story doesn't mention where in Colorado it took place, and there is a stock photo used, not necessarily a correct photo. I'm just quoting the article.
