The Alliance Defending Freedom says in its petition on behalf of Tom Mortier that oncologist Wim Distelmans, a leading promoter of euthanasia in Belgium, first met Godelieva De Troyer in late 2011. The following February, she made a donation of 2,500 euros to a foundation he runs.
Just six weeks later, Distelmans “euthanized” De Troyer, informingher son a day after she was dead, the complaint explains.The case challenges Belgium’s law allowing doctor-prescribed death.
It argues Mortier’s mother was not terminally ill but had complained of depression, a condition several other doctors had determined was treatable.
“The government has an obligation to protect life, not assist in promoting death,” said ADF Litigation Staff Counsel Robert Clarke. “A person can claim that she should be able to do whatever she pleases, but that does not override the government’s responsibility to protect the weak and vulnerable. We are encouraging the European Court to uphold this principle, which is completely consistent with the European Convention on Human Rights.”
The Belgian law requires three other physicians who had no previous involvement with the patient’s care to sign off on a decision to euthanize.
De Troyer’s own physician, who had treated her for more than 20 years, had rejected her requests for euthanasia.
But she went to see Distlemans, and after a 2,500 euro donation to Life End Information Forum, an organization co-founded by Distelmans, he carried out her request to die because of the depression, ADF said.

Con man killer?
Oh this is just awful....how sick! I do hope this doctor is put in prison for life.
We know elders under guardianship who were eliminated via homicide paid for by the taxpayers to Medicare who pays hospice for their services. I know not all hospice's are in the homicide mode of operation but I did witness my loved one who was drugged with unknown doses of Seroquel tiny frail lady had side effects that left her without enough energy to stay awake so then the schemers of the criminal activites declare oh my she is losing weight really? Drugged into near coma then oh what a surprise not enough energy to feed herself then the schemers declare admit to HOSPICE that's a death sentence for many. Our relative was denied food and water oh we can't give her sips of water she might choke and die well no water means death from dehydration. She did die a prolonged painful death at the orders of the Guardian and the nursing home and physician went along with the scheme why? My relative deserved to live, to pass on under natural conditions. And keep in mind the nursing home records are written in deceit the reader would presume the resident died of natural causes in her sleep. Lies lies and more lies from a first person witness that forever changed my life and the course of my life.
All I can say is WTF, I was right the world has gone mad and lunatics are now running the Asylum, Eugenics anyone ...!!!
