Sarasota, Florida's Herald-Tribune newspaper has a fantastic website on the life and death of Dorothy Conlon. Conlon recently decided to hasten her death by voluntarily stopping eating and drinking (VSED).
I have written about the legality of VSED (aka voluntarily refusing food and fluid VRFF) both here and here. But the Herald-Tribune website provides a very nice first-person perspective on approaching and going through the process.
Plus, this week, two panel discussions are planned to provide the public with immediate opportunities to engage with experts on this topic.
