If sampling your friend’s suicide drink isn’t the definition of “too dumb to live,” I don’t know what is.
“too numb to live”
It’s explained and pretty clear right from the start.
Can’t blame us if we get tempted like that.
I didn’t notice that it was the patient’s friend’s cocktail and got a solid dose of “what the fuck maple leaf country” before I noticed
I think ‘patient’ in the context of the slide refers to the partygoer who drank the preparation. And not that there was somebody other than the pancreatic cancer patient at the party with an absurd cocktail of strong drugs.
Do they really just dump a month supply of sedatives in a cup and walk away?
It says there was an attending paramedic, so I wouldn’t say they walked away. Good thing the paramedic was there, too. I can’t imagine being the medically responsible person and watching someone do that.
I’d imagine a sedative overdose is the best way to go. First you get unconscious due to the sedative and once you don’t feel anything anymore your heart stops beating.
The ultimate vacation.
does anyone know if the guy lived or died?
I mean it’s likely
I used to think Phenobarbarbital was sufficent for taking one’s life. That’s the only thing that gets discussed in media coverage of assisted suicide in my country.
IIRC, getting medication overdose to work is a coin flip depending on the patient. I think phenobarbital works pretty consistently, that’s why it’s not really prescribed for its non-lethal uses as often anymore, but they still throw in a bunch of other drugs in the euthanasia cocktail to increase the probability of a successful procedure.
