Approval really is the wrong word. The (legal) action towards the doctor for assisting in an unnatural death are shelved, if and only if the requirements are met. Clearing someone of wrongdoing is not the same as approving ones actions. It is an interesting subject, really close to ones personal belief system. A recent documentary, which showed several cases of euthanasia in NL based on 'indefinite and unbearable suffering' of the mind (f.e. one lady was tired of her life at 90+ years), probably confirms opinions on both sides of the debate the same way. For me, having witnessed two deaths by euthanasia (AIDS) and one without (cancer), I would grant any human the chance to plan their moment of death, even if the suffering is mental.
