January 2023 PPeH Update
The Essentials
The January 2023 update to the Peaceful Pill eHandbook Essentials will provide a step-by-step guide to professional laboratory Nembutal testing in Spain.
|
The Essentials already provides information about extracting samples but, on the basis of reader feedback, problems have been encountered with how to actually submit the sample for analysis.
|
The January Update explains the process in easy-to-understand, basic steps.
|
This update is particularly timely given the re-established availabilty of Nembutal from/ in Mexico.
|
Current Subscribers to the Peaceful Pill eHandbook are reminded that they need to transfer to The Essentials edition to continue receiving updates.

Belgian Euthanasia Rates Recover
to Pre-Pandemic Level
The annual report of the Belgium Euthanasia Commission (Federale Controle- en Evaluatiecommissie) has shown that voluntary euthanasia rates during the Covid pandemic took a significant nose dive, with significantly fewer people receiving euthanasia than in the years 2019 and 2021.
|
Of note in the new Report is that:
|
- 67% of people were older than 70, with 39% older than 80
- 63.4% had cancer
- In 85% of all cases, the person was terminally ill
- More than half (54.3%) of the euthanasia deaths took place at home
- Around one third (30.4%) of the euthanasia deaths took place in hospitals and palliative units
The report provides no explanation for the reasons why the number of elected deaths was lower during the pandemic.
|
Possible sociological explanations include:
|
- Impact of greater isolating by vulnerable groups (eg. elderly/ seriously ill)
- Less inclination to access medical care
- Less availability of doctors for the approval process & possibly for home visits
- Suspended health care of all kinds

Available from Exit Online Store
Exit Director, Professor Sean Davison's, new book - The Price of Mercy - is now available at the Exit Online Book Store.
|
Named 'thriller of the year' by Philip Nitschke, The Price of Mercy is a rollicking ride of how to break the law and get away with it ... so to speak.
|
It reads as part crime thriller, part confessional & part political expose of the powers of the post-apartheid political system of South Africa.
|
Sean Davison should have been sentenced to 3 life sentences for the 3 pre-medicated murders of: Anrich Burger, Justin Varian & Richard Holland.
|
Instead, via a plea deal, he served 3 years home detention.
|
The Price of Mercy gives readers the inside story of how it feels to help 3 rational, well informed individuals to die, and what it is like to pay the consequences for 'doing the right thing'.
|
To read The Price of Mercy is to become aware of how good deeds can turn bad, through little fault of one's own. And how one can move on.
|
The Price of Mercy AUD$25 + shipping.
|
The Price of Mercy ships from Australia.
