SAGE News Clip: Legalizing Assisted SuicideDescription: This video examines the issue of physician-assisted suicide. Judy White, a patient suffering from debilitating diabetes, has chosen to attempt to end her life through physician-assisted suicide. She attends a workshop led by Australian doctor Philip Nitschke, who helped four people commit suicide in 1996 when the practice was legal in Australia. Physician-assisted suicide is legal in Washington and Oregon; however, some protest the practice.
