It was about the right to die, his right to decide when and where, not about being the centre of attention.

In which case it was none of our business-but by turning it into a media circus he chose to make it our business-ergo attention seeker till the end= narcissist-and there was no need to fly half way round the world to do so.
In actual fact he's done the 'right to die-ers' a disservice-because his actions prove the lie of 'its just for those in unbearable pain'....
It may come as a horrible shock to you-but this sort of activitity is illegal in most countries...and for good reasons. First you allow it on the grounds of 'unbearable pain' then because of 'quality of life' then best for the family' then 'for convenience'. Its like torture-if you do it 'for a good reason'...then its only a matter of time before you do it for a bad reason.....and the Dutch teenager example should be all the proof needed to end the argument.
