I was in hospital with infection for five days and what I experienced was Depression, no interest in the Foo Fighters and no appetite. Sometimes the physical can impair the emotional and in that regard, I make very little differentiation between this and someone who comes to us for assistance regarding suicidal thoughts.

I recommend that any doctor who assists someone with their suicide be stripped of their practising licence and prosecuted in the courts, and I recommend the laws be scrapped. I can't understand how a doctor could possibly do that.
There is a big difference between someone with a fairly treatable mental condition that wants to commit suicide and someone with a terminal condition that they are almost certain to die a slow and very painful death from.
