In 2000, a court in Haarlem in The Netherlands considered the case of 86-year-old Edward Brongersma who had expressed his wish to die to his general practitioner, Dr Philip Sutorius, claiming that death had \u2018forgotten\u2019 him, his friends and relatives were dead, and he experienced \u2018a pointless and empty existence\u2019. After repeated requests, Dr Sutorius euthanized his insisting patient and was then put on trial. The public prosecution recognized that Dr Sutorius fulfilled all the legal criteria but one: \u2018hopeless and unbearable suffering.\u2019 Therefore, the patient\u2019s request should have been refused. The court did not discipline Dr Sutorius, saying that the patient was obsessed with his \u2018physical decline\u2019 and \u2018hopeless existence\u2019 and therefore was suffering \u2018hopelessly and unbearably\u2019. A spokesman for the Royal Dutch Medical Association reacted to the court judgment by saying that the definition of \u2018unbearable suffering\u2019 had been stretched too far and that \u2018what is new is that it goes beyond physical or psychiatric illness to include social decline\u2019. The then Justice Minister Benk Korthals said that being \u2018tired of life\u2019 is not sufficient reason for euthanasia. Since then, the debate as to whether physicians should comply with euthanasia requests of people who are \u2018tired of life\u2019 has been widened and many people in Belgium and in The Netherlands are calling for the law to be expanded in order to include similar patients.\n\nThe methodology of this research is based on a critical review of the literature supplemented by communications with leading scholars and practitioners. First, concerns are raised about euthanizing people who say that they are \u2018tired of life\u2019. Some suggestions designed to improve the situation are offered. The Belgian legislators and medical establishment are invited to reflect and ponder so as to prevent potential abuse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Cohen-Almagor R, Jones DA, Gastmans C, Mackellar C. <a href=\"https:\/\/papers.ssrn.com\/sol3\/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3052105\">Euthanizing People Who Are &#8216;Tired of Life&#8217; in Belgium<\/a>.
