Daughter stood in silence as she watched her elderly parents die after giving them POISON to carry out suicide pact after Dignitas turned them down

A daughter who helped her elderly parents carry out their suicide pact told a coroner today how she stood in 'stunned silence' watching them die after giving them both poison. Retired doctor David Arnold, 82, and his wife Elizabeth, 85, from Newbury in Berkshire, decided to end their lives when he became a bed-bound amputee and she was diagnosed with dementia and Alzheimer’s. After one failed attempt to commit suicide and a rejection from the Dignitas euthanasia clinic in Switzerland, the couple enlisted the help of their daughter, Georgina Roberts, 59, who admitted purchasing drugs and preparing them for her parents 'when they were ready to go together'.
