[Press release]-Doctor, do I Have the Right to Live a Little Longer? Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide Uncovered

13/01/2023

Just over a month after the launch of the citizens’ convention on the end of life, Tugdual Derville, who is spokesman for Alliance VITA entered the debate with an essay titled Doctor, do I Have the Right to Live a Little Longer?, to be published by Salvator on 19th January.

Based on meetings with suffering patients, carers and political personalities, as well as media confrontations with fervent supporters of euthanasia, this incisive book is both a personal testimony and a solidly argued manifest which reveals the firm commitment of the author in defence of the most vulnerable. With great clarity, Tugdual Derville deconstructs the pseudo-freedom put forward by the defenders of a so-called “right to choose one’s death”: in truth, he points out, it represents a serious threat against the most vulnerable.
