| Message | "Extreme" would refer to a situation in which the patient is experiencing chronic pain and suffering. It would have to be approved by both the court and the patient to take place. |

| Message | Would the regulations require that new treatments, experimental or otherwise, must not be available or soon to be available and that the patient has been fully psychologically assessed? If so, we will vote yes. Adalger Wichterle LP Leader |

| Message | If new treatments are available or soon to be available, the patient's pain would not be considered chronic and these treatments would be implemented as soon as possible. Only after these treatments fail would euthanasia be an option. The patient would also need to be deemed psychologically fit enough to make their own decision regarding their euthanasia. |

| Message | Then we give our full support! Adalger Wichterle LP Leader |
