Kevorkian Did NOT Kill Himself ... But Would Have

1

at least he went peacefully. Getting old sucks! My mom is 74 and is at the beginning of dementia, this is a hard road to watch someone who was once so vital get confused by a trash bag. Sometimes I wish assisted suicide was more acceptable in this country. I know she did not want to live like this. Back when Jack first started his "work" she had asked me to make sure she could get his type of help when the time came. I don't know what we will do but for now she still has more good days than bad. I hope they find some cure for aging brains.....

He shoulda killed himself with a combination of Dominos and the game Mouse Trap.

He was the father of assisted suicide. Why didn't he have someone assist him if he were too weak to do it himself? What's good for the goose is obviously not good for the gander I suppose.

Who? Famous for what?.....Dr for what?

Jack: Off

this guy had the right idea

I hear he was filling helium balloons as a side job.

This is what Charlie Sheen will look like in 5 years.

To Jackie: I seriously hope you are kidding. If not, you need to read the newspaper ONCE in a while.

Once you see a family suffer through a horrible disease/illness...you will see that what this man did was not wrong. If a person has it in his/her will that when they get to a certain point of illness they then want their life ended....I agree with it.

Give me a break! Would have killed himself "if he had been ALLOWED to leave the hospital"! There is this thing call "leaving against medical advice" all you have to do is sign a release form which release the hospital from liability for your stupidity! "Dr. Death" didn't take himself out when it came down to. He got his rocks off wathcing others do it!!!

Dr Death its to bad you weren't allowed to do yourself in. RIP.

@Jackie: WOW...only one of the most controversial doctor stories around (in my lifetime, at least)!

@Bons: Kudos to your comment (well...BOTH COMMENTS...hahaha).

I take care of hospice patients on the weekends, and see this suffering first-hand. I'm with Bons.

Big bad Kevorkian, when it came to his time to meet his maker he chickened out... what's this bullsh*t that he was too weak... his death machine would have required that he do nothing, only consent...

I'd hate to be him on the other side.

Geoffrey Fieger is a shameless self promoter. He hasn't been Jack's attorney for many years and now he claims to speak for him??? Honestly, Geoff Fieger is a leech and a despicable human being. He's the male version of Gloria Allred.
