Elderly couple record message to be played on YouTube after assisted suicide past - Telegraph: The bodies of Don and Iris Flounders were found at their home in Victoria, Australia, last Friday, having killed themselves the day before. The couple made no secret of their intention to die together and travelled to Mexico in 2008 to buy the drug they need for a controlled death. Mr Flounders, 81, suffered from mesothelioma, which is an incurable form of lung cancer. His 88-year-old wife, who was not suffering from a terminal illness, decided she did not want to live without him. Their message, which will be broadcast posthumously on Tuesday, tells of their desire to die in the manner that they choose.
