I am thrilled to report back the results of our poll — 60% of NSW doctors and 80% of nurses said they back the Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill. The majority of them have worked in palliative care, directly with palliative patients. The Sun Herald have even published a story about these results today!
This is massive for us — our opponents consistently say that doctors and palliative specialists do not support euthanasia. This is just wrong. For months now doctors, nurses, palliative specialists have privately told me they support a terminally ill patient's right to access voluntary assisted dying.
Now, thanks to so many of you who chipped in to fund this independent poll of NSW doctors and nurses — we can show politicians that the medical experts back this Bill.
But I really need your help to take this further, and convince politicians to listen. By clicking this link and printing out this poster, could you go to your local doctor and see if they’d be willing to support our campaign, and put this up in their office? Link: http://bit.ly/2sE5l5u
It’s really important for us to keep up this momentum of support from medical experts.
Please send in any photos you have of yourself doing this to my campaign email at: annepetition@gmail.com
Thank you again,
Annie.
