Euthanasia law fuels suffering in Holland

Dr Elst Borst, the architect of legal euthanasia in Holland, has admitted that she may have made a mistake in pushing the law through. Dr Borst made the comments during an interview for a new book, Redeemer Under God. The former Health Minister and Deputy Prime Minister admitted that care for the terminally-ill had declined since the law came into effect.

The author of Redeemer Under God, Dr Anne-Marie The, has studied euthanasia for 15 years. Her research found that the available palliative care in Holland was so inadequate that patients “often ask for euthanasia out of fear.” Christian Institute
