So you're essentially hoping that these people, who did not give explicit consent, actually (and perhaps secretly) did want to be killed?

My hope is that where paperwork did go through, no person was uncertain or regretted their life-altering decision (which, for example, increases suicide risk in one's family twofold). But I doubt that either of our hopes lives up to reality.




> increases suicide risk in one's family twofold

Euthanasia increases suicide risks as opposed to dying painfully of natural causes?


> increases suicide risk in one's family twofold

What is the baseline here? Could you provide a source?
