A mutliple-sclerosis (MS) sufferer
who committed assisted suicide in Switzerland this week voiced
the hope in a farewell letter that Italy would become a
"civilised" country where euthanasia would be possible. "I
really hope that Italy becomes a more civilised country, finally
passing a law that lets people end enormous suffering, without
end, without remedy, in their own homes, close to their loved
ones, without having to go abroad, with all the difficulties
involved without excessive expenditure," wrote Davide Trentini,
a 53-tyear-old Tuscan accompanied to the Dignitas clinic in
Zurich by right-to-die activist Mina Welby. "I will leave for my
dream holiday", wrote Trentini.
