Véronique Sanson, a famous 74-year-old singer-songwriter and pianist, recently spoke with conviction on the subject of the right to die with dignity. In an interview with the show In the retro hosted by Deborah Grunwald on France Blueshe testified to her desire to see French law concerning euthanasia evolve. “Let people do what they want with themselves”she launched at the microphone of our colleagues.
“In France, for the people who are dear to you and whom we see suffering without any possibility of improvement, we know that they are going to die… Rather than letting them agonize, I do not understand why we cannot alleviate this monstrous agony “, indicated the artist before challenging the “government”,Emmanuel Macron but also “the Church” who she says is equally responsible. “We must always die in abominable sufferings and offer them to the Lord. We don’t know what he does with the sufferings…Offer your sufferings to the Lord…I’ve always read that, but what does he do with these sufferings? Does he eat it?” wondered the interpreter of Song about the funny life.
For Véronique Sanson, the time has definitely come to“have empathy” for people in pain. “It’s relentless. Why are we letting people die and dying? It would make an extra hospital bed and people would stop suffering”she assured before adding that allowing people to make this decision would have a positive impact on the sick, as well as on their loved ones. “When that happens, we are mortally relieved because we have a mortal sadness. Obviously we feel relieved of her suffering. We feel relieved that she no longer feels this kind of excruciating, inextinguishable, inhuman pain. don’t leave people like that.”
