For years, Mrs Bateman, an 85-year-old lady, has experienced severe, agonising pain due to rheumatoid arthritis. Dr Smith has been her treating doctor for the last 23 years and promised Mrs Bateman he would not allow her to suffer. After many unsuccessful pharmacological and non-pharmacological pain interventions, Mrs Bateman begged Dr Smith to end her suffering. After careful consideration, Dr. Smith visited Mrs Bateman at her home and administered a large dose of potassium chloride. Mrs Bateman died shortly after.
