Today the Hastings Center's Bioethics Forum has put up a post about the Verbessem euthanasia I previously wrote about. The post at Bioethics Forum has corrected errors I made in the past. Please note the reference to Stephen Drake and the difference between "suffering" and "pain". This is critically important.

Paralyzed since I was 18 years old, I have spent much of the last 30 years thinking about the reasons why the social life of crippled people is so different from those who ambulate on two feet. After reading about the so called Ashley Treatment I decided it was time to write a book about my life as a crippled man. My book, Bad Cripple: A Protest from an Invisible Man, will be published by Counter Punch. I hope my book will completed soon.
