Chronic Illness Connected to Suicide

 Chronic Illness Connected to Suicide
A study has found that nearly 400 people suffering from chronic illnesses take that extreme step of suicide with assistance, a fact which many health chiefs push under the carpet.  
The report has revealed that many numbers of Brits suffering chronic illnesses visit the Swiss Dignitas clinic for assistance in committing suicide.

Health chiefs do not take up this issue fearing the repercussions it may have on families. This study has accused many health chiefs of shirking their responsibility towards chronically ill patients.
