I honestly thought he was still alive. Thank you for sharing this story about him. Not many people like to talk about controversial topics. You did with kindness and respect.
This is someone new to me and this is what i like about your tours always something new appearing Chris, a very interesting and fascinating tour this one, even googled him to read a little more about the person, thank you again for sharing this with us from across the pond in UK
He went the way he would have wanted. We have just passed Assisted dying Act in NZ. There are strict guidelines in place so no one is pressured into this. Thank you for sharing. Have s great weekend. 😊
Very interesting. I haven't heard of this man before and I also had never thought of this being legal in various different countries. When I think of assisted dying, I always think of Dignitas, probably because it's the most well known. As I said, I've never heard of this man before, but just from watching your video, all he was doing was trying to help people, an act of kindness and he ended up in jail because of it, because other's didn't agree. Just my opinion. Thanks for sharing this, I love the different variety of your videos, I am always learning something 😊
I remember the controversy over this doctor. We are all entitled to our individual opinion. As always terrific video. You handled the topic well 👍🏽. Thanks again
Very interesting video. Thank you for sharing this controversial topic with us. Many people would shy away from something like this or want to provide their own opinion on the subject.
I have friends Buried here but Finding Graves is Very Hard as They want this Place Maintenance Free, They achieved that for sure, Maintenance people are always helping people find Graves, Its Insane & Sad
Hey Chris: Probably for the best that an opinion on the topic was not brought up. Troy is a beautiful and exciting city though. Here some trivia, it used to be the world headquarters for the Kmart Corp.
Hello good buddy 👍 I remember him well I was just wondering about him other day I figured he was gone now but boy time flies anymore...it's been very hot here lately take care of yourself buddy 👍👌👊🤙🤟🤙 and God bless you my friend 🙏
If I have ALS, Huntingtons, or terminal cancer, it should be my right to decide if I want to suffer to the end or go painlessly and with dignity. RIP Dr. Kevorkian😇😇
Hi. A beautiful cemetery! Very interesting man. I don't know how I feel about assisted death. I guess each person will do whatever they feel is appropriate for them. Mary kills People was a TV show a few years back on assisted death. Thanks for all your great vlogs! Deborah.... Winnipeg, Canada
I believe in everything that he did. Dying with dignity. I am from there and I know many folks buried there. His lawyer was a friend to my old boss. RIP Jack. I will have to visit him next time I’m there
I live in Washington state where assisted suicide is legal. The Death with Dignity Act was passed in 2008 and enacted in 2009. My mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 2008. If the option for assisted suicide was available to my mother, I would have supported her to the end. She died in the summer of 2008 and the following November, the Death With Dignity was passed.
I was born and raised in Michigan and followed this story from the beginning to end. I don't see that he did anything wrong, if you have a pet that's suffering and dying a slow painful death you end their pain with vet assisted euthanasia it's the kind and loving thing to do. It shouldn't be any different with humans
A very interesting man and insightful in many ways... as someone in the healthcare profession seeing many people suffer I do believe that it should be allowed in many cases however... that being said we are also not God and that has always worried me...😢 I have a very dear friend right now who is dying from in operable brain cancer she is in hospice but is suffering as well which is very sad for her friends and family to watch and wait 💔💔💔. Thank you again for bringing us another great episode/story of ones life that has passed but has significant meaning and gave us all moment for pause. You are absolutely kind and a lovely soul. Keep them coming ❤️ take care be safe 🙏🙏🙏
My son and i volunteer to care for cemeteries. This one is so picturesque. When I was in high school i wrote a reasearch paper on euthanasia. I started out being very much against it. After all my research I had to change to being pro euthanasia. May none of us become so miserable to consider this!
@@Whittdocs Thank you for bringing us to this cemetery and allowing focus on euthanasia, a very tough topic yet needs real conversation to be far better understood.
I watched one of his trials way back on Court TV. Iwas torn on should they prosecuit him or not. There was a man in Florida in very much pain who fought in court to die. I never saw how that ended. One thing I do know is we will never know what these poor folks are going through till it happens to us. I do believe suicide is a sin. I do know if you really want to end t all you only have to stop drinking water. Painful. I pray no one ever has to go through this torture in their lives.
@@gregrak9389 Well Greg. I worked a long time in long term care. I saw a lot of folks out on their last days. Holding hands. Telling them they were the best parents in the world. Which they were. Telling them I loved them. Comforting families. I am old now and think about these things for me. What will I want. Nothing is the same for all. Each has to choose. This is a haed thing for flks. That is why they have living wills. Not everyone wants one of those. Each person needs to decide for themselves. I guess I think the person should have that right as long as the family are ok. If not then as an old fart I would do anything to keep from hurting my family. But sooner or later some folks have to face this. Though they may not get relief.
Little fun fact for those who don't know: The Volkswagen van Kevorkian used for many of those procedures was acquired a few years ago by Zac Bagins for his museum. Kevorkian's former attorney Geoffrey Fieger contested the validity of the van as he had paid to have it towed to a scrap yard and destroyed. (Someone at that yard initially tried to sell it to the pawnbrokers from Hardcore Pawn and were turned down before Bagins found out about it). Zac ultimately invited Fieger to come to the museum and examine the van for himself which he did, and conceded that the van was the real deal. As for the controversy, I seem to recall that someone convinced a great number of the elderly that the government would use assisted suicide to eventually just start offing people for getting old. I even remember a commercial aired when the debate was up for a vote, a really dark scenario where the senior citizens were being herded onto buses after tearful farewells to thier families and driven away.
Interesting video. He wasn’t as nasty as the UK Doctor Death that didn’t consult his patients, on ending their lives. Harold Shipman. I won’t dignify him with a title.
Great video I remember hearing about his actions he was right in doing what he did thanks for sharing best wishes to you from thomas Costello in Ireland
Where in Kentucky do you live? I was born and raised in Ashland; my mother and grandmother born and raised in Pikeville. My grandmother was a Hatcher. I now live in Lexington. Carolyn P.
One of my fave videos of yours. I believe in him and a lot of his opinions. I wish assisted dying was legal in the U.K. my husband is terminally ill,and if he said he couldn’t cope with his condition anymore,I’d support him. It should only be for people who have a terminal or degenerative condition though
I don't know if Michigan has approved assisted suicide but Dr. Kevorkian was ahead of his time I think. Love the videos, especially these from Michigan. If you ever want to see real old graves check out the cemeteries in Muskegon Michigan. Lumber barons and a slave stealer/savor to mention a few.
@@Whittdocs awesome!! I have yet to stop by there.. look up Michael Luther on findagrave… he has a huge pac man machine memorial marker. He was my friend. It’s in clio Michigan
Dr. Kevorkian was a true American hero, if someone truly deserved a novel peace prize, it was definitely him. I totally agree with his views, when someone has an incurable physical or mental disability or ailments that would no longer like to live with the condition, you should definitely be able to decide when they want to leave this earth, and have the help of competent and compassionate medical professionals to help you leave this world with comfort and dignity, and no government nor sick and ignorant religious fanatics should continue to step in and prevent that. You’re deciding over your own life, not someone else’s. Utterly disgraceful that Dr. Kevorkian was tried and imprisoned like a total criminal. Thankfully in part thanks to Dr. Kevorkian’s fight and movement for his cause, some states now have laws that allow and provide medically assisted suicide, but under certain requirements, though it should be more accessible to more people.
Sacrificed his career, reputation, and freedom for the rights of terminally ill and suffering patients. He was able to spare his patients and their families from unbearable suffering.
I learned more about his death here than any where else. Of course most have heard of him.knew he went to prison.most forgot how he died or had just plain forgot about him. I wonder how many have terminal illnesses and medication don't ease the pain no more. Would you rather keep suffering or want someone to help end it all. I remember some years ago a elderly lady in so much pain said to me. She wished Dr Death was still alive to help her end her pain. All I could do was pray for her. Sometimes we have put ourselves in thier place to understand why they asked him for help. Now days they have a living will. That way no body can interfere with thier dying. It is true. After a while pain medication don't work.Hospice has thier own Drs now. I don't think I could assist in anyone's death. Great video.👍. Today they call people who assist in helping someone pass. A.mercy killer. Thank you for reminding me how he died. I either forgot he had cancer, or just plain forgot. Love,respect and positivity always . Neita james. 🙌🧘♀️🦋🌠🌻🌷🙂👋.
I have always felt as if he did nothing wrong. I am from Michigan, so knew of him. He helped people die with dignity and in the way they chose. This world is really messed up when they will put an animal down when it is ill and no one thinks twice about it, yet when Doctor Kevorkian helped others end their life he was punished for it....
The most evil people are the unscrupulous doctors, hospitals and pharmaceutical companies that keep making millions in profits in the name of so called “treating” patients, and billing citizens outrageously for medical bills. Dr. Kevorkian was the true American hero, you’re and your mother are much more evil and disgraceful people than Kevorkian was.
We definitely heard the controversy from the media back in the day. But I think he believed that patients should have the right if they were terminal to have their wishes met, even if it meant getting a little help. My ex-mother-in-law, after her dad lingered from Alzheimer's, said, "If I ever get dementia, shoot me." She didn't want to waste away like that. I think a lot of patients who are terminal want to be remembered as they were when they were vital and not as the disease takes them. The family doesn't always agree. Therein lies the controversy. It was interesting that he stood up for a patient's right to choose their own death.
I believe all he was trying to do was help folks I saw my grandfather at end of his life with Alzheimer's I will tell you this it's was very ugly. So those with MS and such they should have the right to die with their self worth in tact.
I remember this story like if it was yesterday I lost my mother to pancreatic cancer and my mother was prepared to go in be with the Lord turn down chemo two months after they gave her 6 months she refused chemo however me being Christian I believe nobody give life and nobody take life I don't knock or agree with what this man was doing I just feel that what he should have did is made it comfortable for the individual to make that transition comfortable without any drama as always no disrespect intended New York City USA 🤍🖤🤎💜💙💚💛🧡❤

In my own opinion this man was an Angel. We need more people like him.
Thank you so much for the comment!
Cared for his patients to the end!
I honestly thought he was still alive. Thank you for sharing this story about him. Not many people like to talk about controversial topics. You did with kindness and respect.
I truly appreciate that. Thank you so much.
Kevorkian was a good man, he makes me proud to be an Armenian.

Thank you Chris for telling the facts. As always you are true and very classy in your presentations. THANKS Brother!!
I greatly appreciate that. That means so much to me.
Fascinating video Chris.
I was surprised on how simple a grave marker he had.
Thanks

I would love to.
Great video. I could listen to your voice all day. ❤️
You pretty well do. Thanks for supporting me always!

I have friends Buried here but Finding Graves is Very Hard as They want this Place Maintenance Free,
They achieved that for sure,
Maintenance people are always helping people find Graves, Its Insane & Sad
The landscape is beautiful. However, the grass is grown so far over the flat markers that some of them couldn’t be read. I found that very sad.
@@Whittdocs There's probably been cut backs or poor management or BOTH, it is Democrat Michigan after all.

Thank you for watching.
I remember this story like if it was yesterday I lost my mother to pancreatic cancer and my mother was prepared to go in be with the Lord turn down chemo two months after they gave her 6 months she refused chemo however me being Christian I believe nobody give life and nobody take life I don't knock or agree with what this man was doing I just feel that what he should have did is made it comfortable for the individual to make that transition comfortable without any drama as always no disrespect intended New York City USA 🤍🖤🤎💜💙💚💛🧡❤
