Euthanasia is legal in the Netherlands and it's an option that Carmen has to consider and there's a lot about it that, as Dan says, you don't find out from the websites. I couldn't help but see how much control it leaves with the patient in a situation which must otherwise be terrifying.
I defy you not to cry when you read this book. I would imagine that it's just about impossible unless you have a heart of stone. ''Love Life'' has been compared to Erich Segal's [[''Love Story]] '' and both books have the same predictability but there's more to ''Love Life'' which lacks the saccharine sweetness and is more honest about reactions to terminal illness.
My thanks to the publishers for sending this book.
