Letter to the Editor: Assisted suicide

I read an article in the news recently and I have a few comments to make on assisted suicide.  

Abby Hoffman with Health Canada is an official and is providing the latest statistics on assisted suicide and a committee is reviewing what is going on in Canada and other parts of the world. 

As I speak from the heart, assisted suicide should not be carried out!  Other countries go to extremes but I see Canada isn’t as bad as them.  

Assisted suicide has picked up speed since Canada legalized it in 2016 and now I see that mature minors could get into the act now, too. Besides, cancer patients are having trouble with everyday living and coping with difficulty and I see 50 0f them have backed out of assisted suicide.  

“Oh, Happy Day!” That makes me feel good.  

God still works miracles in all of our lives and sickness can go into remission for those that don’t know which way to go. May the Grace of God be with all mankind. God Bless everyone!  Doctors take heed.
