According to the Scottish Sun, "Terminally ill patients will be left to die if they choose, under new guidelines." They overhype a new DNACR policy (Do Not Attempt Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) as some sort of lurking euthanasia, when it's similar to DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) orders here in the states, whereby a person in hospice care asserts the right not to undergo extreme measures such as CPR at the end of life.
Here's a saner rendition, from the Scotsman: "Terminally ill get new rights to refuse life-prolonging treatment"
