Laws on Euthanasia
It was 3: 45 in the morning when the vote was finally taken. After six months of arguing and final 16 hours of hot parliamentary debates, Australia’ s Northern Territory became the first legal authority in the world to allow doctors to take the lives of【W1】______ill patients who wish to die. The measure passed by the convincing vote of 15 to 10. Almost【W2】______word flashed on the Internet and was picked up, half a world away, by John Hofsess, executive director of the Right to Die Society of Canada. He sent it on【W3】______the group’ s on-line service, Death NET. Says Hofsess: "We posted bulletins all day long, because of course this isn’ t just something【W4】______happened in Australia. It’ s world history. "
The full import may take a while to sink in. The NT Rights of the Terminally 111 law has left physicians and citizens alike trying to【W5】______with its moral and practical implications. Some have breathed sighs of relief, others, including churches, right-to-life groups and the Australian medical Association, bitterly attacked the bill and the haste of its passage. But the tide is【W6】______to turn back. In Australia—where an aging population, life-extending technology and changing community attitudes have all played their part—other states are going to consider making a【W7】______law to deal with euthanasia. In the US and Canada, where the right-to-die movement is gathering strength, observers are waiting for the dominoes to start falling.
Under the new Northern Territory law, an adult patient can request death—probably by a【W8】______injection or pill—to put an end to suffering. The patient must be diagnosed as terminally ill by two doctors. After a "cooling off" period of seven days, the patient can【W9】______a certificate of request. After 48 hours the wish for death can be met. For Lloyd Nickson, a 54-year-old Darwin resident suffering from lung cancer, the NT Rights of the Terminally 111 law means he can get on with living without the haunting fear of his suffering: a terrifying death from his breathing condition. "I’m not【W10】______of dying from a spiritual point of view, but what I was afraid of was how I’d go, because I’ ve watched people die in the hospital fighting for oxygen and clawing at their masks, " he says.
【W10】
