The facts of the case highlight the myriad dangers that arise when euthanasia is legalized, and make clear that even legal ‘safeguards’ are not sufficient to protect the right to life when the practice of intentionally ending a life is available under the law.'
(Euthanasia Prevention Coalition) – Those who follow the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition will remember the story of Tom Mortier, the man whose mother Godelieva de Troyer died by euthanasia based on “untreatable depression” in Belgium in 2012.
In November 2017 Mortier applied to the European Court of Human Rights and in January 2019, they agreed to hear the case.
In the case, Mortier argued that his mother’s euthanasia death contravened Article 2 of the European Convention of Human Rights. Mortier was represented by Robert Clarke with Alliance Defending Freedom International (ADF).
On October 4, 2022, ADF announced that the European Court of Human Rights “ruled in favor of Tom Mortier, son of Godelieva de Troyer, who died by lethal injection in 2012, aged 64. Her euthanasia was conducted on the basis of a diagnosis of ‘incurable depression.’ In the case of Mortier v. Belgium, the Court found that Belgium violated the European Convention on Human Rights when it failed to properly examine the alarming circumstances leading to her euthanasia.”
This is great news as it is the first time that a major European court has decided that the Belgium euthanasia protocols contravene Article 2 of the European Convention on Human Rights.

99% of clinical and manic depression is treatable and vanquishable with SUNSHINE- vitamin D in its natural form from the sun or with vitamin D3 supplements. Psychiatrists don’t accept this because it would be bad for business.
“Now, you tell us!”
Now do the trans activists.🤔
