Euthinasia not just for the terminally ill anymore!!!
Our Guiding Principle
Mentally competent adults have a basic human right to end their lives when they suffer from a fatal or irreversible illness or intractable pain, when their quality of life is personally unacceptable, and the future holds only hopelessness and misery. Such a right shall be an individual choice, including the timing and companion, free of any restrictions by the law, clergy, medical profession, even friends and relatives no matter how well-intentioned. We do not encourage anyone to end their life, do not provide the means to do so, and do not actively assist in a person's death. We do, however, support them when medical circumstances warrant their decision.
What Sets Final Exit Network Apart from Other Right-to-Die Groups?
A. Final Exit Network is the only organization in the United States that will help individuals who are not "terminally ill"-6 months or less to live-to hasten their deaths. No other organization in the US makes this commitment. Other organizations claim to "serve" non-terminal individuals, but they will not counsel, support and provide guidance and support unless the patient is terminal.
Our slogan is, "Final Exit Network will serve many whom other organizations may turn away." The Network will serve members suffering from….Cancer…neurological diseases such as ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease), Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's ….motor neuron diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis and Muscular Dystrophy respiratory illnesses such as Emphysema degenerative afflictions such as Congestive Heart Failure, stroke, AIDS…and many, many others. In most of these cases, the Network is the only organization that will truly serve these individuals. We do.
B. The Network is one of the few organizations that support research into other peaceful means for self-deliverance. We recently made a grant to a researcher who is about to conduct final tests on a new method. If the tests are successful, the Network may be able to share the knowledge that will make this method available to members.
C. The Network is also committed to advocate for members whose advance directives are not being honored.
D. Final Exit Network is an all volunteer organization-except for part-time paid assistance with office, bookkeeping, communications and database services. Other organizations spend millions of members' dollars each year-and have run deficits of nearly $2 million in a single year. They have staffs of over 30 people and multiple offices in several cities.
E. Final Exit Network invites its members to participate in choosing who will represent them on the board of directors. The Network is the only US right-to-die membership organization with open elections for board members.
