 On the eve of his 104th birthday on 4 April, Exit International's oldest Member, Emeritus Professor David Goodall (Wikipedia), announced his intention to attend the Life Circle service in Basel, Switzerland for an assisted death.Professor David Goodall, Australia's Oldest Working ScientistWith an Exit Member number of #1848, David Goodall has been a member of Exit longer than most people.Well organised to the end, he thought he had his plans in place. However, it seems that David’s advanced age has finally caught up with him.At work in the 1950s.Very recently he has realised that things were not going to be as easy as he anticipated. He is now left with little alternative other than to travel to Switzerland.With the cooperation of the good people at Life Circle in Basel, Exit has been able to organise a fast-track for David.He will be accompanied by his long-time friend and Exit's West Australian Coordinator, Carol O’Neil.Carol and David plan to leave Perth for Basel in early May.Carol & David at an Exit workshop in 2016A pathetic state of affairs? You bet!Especially given West Australia is currently considering the introduction of a voluntary euthanasia law; a law which the West Australian Premier Mark McGowan has said would not help a person like David Goodall who is not sick Elder abuse? Quite possibly.Age discrimination? Absolutely.Born in London in 1914, Professor Goodall is an eminent botanist and ecologist. A graduate of Imperial College of Science and Technology (University of London) where he received his PhD in 1941, David came to Australia in 1948 to take up a lecturing position at the University of Melbourne .David was awarded a Doctor of Science from Melbourne University as well as an honorary doctorate from the Università degli Studí di Trieste in Italy. He held a range of academic positions in the UK, US and Australia (CSIRO ) before retiring in 1979.After his retirement, he edited the 30 volume series of Ecosystems of the World with over 500 authors.David with his edited series: Ecosystems of the WorldAt 103, David travelled by gyrocopter to the remote Kimberley station (Kachana) near to Kununurra to visit the eco sustained cattle station of Chris and Jacqueline Henggeler.At Kachana, David was back 'in the field' courtesy of the station's tractor service.David will be remembered for the burst of media in 2016 that followed the decision by Edith Cowan University to take away his office.The University argued the working scientist was a safety risk to himself and others.In response to this unwelcome age discrimination, David went public and the University acquiesced, eventually providing him with an alternative, ground floor office closer to home.Having celebrated his 104th birthday in early April, David has decided wow is the time to go. Indeed, if his plans had gone accordingly, this birthday would not have happened and he would not be in the dilemma he now finds himself.David on his 104th Birthday (4 April 2018, in Perth). His birthday cake was a cheesecake, his favourite.It is just crazy that at the very time the West Australian Parliament has a committee inquiry to determine if their State should pass a voluntary euthanasia/ assisted suicide law, that one of its oldest and prominent citizens should be forced to travel to the other side of the world to die with dignity.David receiving his Order of Australia in 2016As if to add insult to injury, the West Australian Premier Mark McGowan has now pre-empted the Committee’s findings stating that the WA Parliament will only consider a law for the terminally ill.Of course the Premier has added that he feels ‘sympathy’ for David’s plight.The calculated politics of the Mr McGowan’s remarks are breath-taking, although hardly surprising since Mr McGowan’s reported mentor is Kim Beazley.Be that as it may, rarely in living memory can one recall a senior citizen being treated with such disdain and even contempt by a Premier of the day.The situation of Professor Goodall drives home the absolute limited value of an end of life law that is based solely upon a person’s health status.As Dr Philip Nitschke argued in his presentation to the WA Parliamentary Committee in April, it is totally unacceptable for a law to discriminate between the sick and everyone else.Forcing the ‘well’ elderly to travel overseas is exporting a problem, rather than addressing a growing social need. Shame!David Goodall is a life-long economy class flier.To do otherwise offends his egalitarian sensibility.It is a veryfrom Perth Australia to Basel Switzerland at any age, especially104!Philip says he doesn't want the stress of the flight to kill him.Exit will be reporting on David's journey to Switzerland in the coming days and weeks.Thank you in advance for your support. ||||| Academic David Goodall has confirmed he plans to fly to Europe this week to end his life, but he resents the fact that he has been left with no other choice. 
  
 After repeated failed attempts at suicide over the past 12 months, the 104-year-old has made the decision to travel to Switzerland, where voluntary assisted dying is legal. 
  
 Dr Goodall will fly to Bordeaux on Wednesday to visit family before making his final journey to the Swiss city of Basel, where an end of life clinic has approved his application to die through voluntary euthanasia. 
  
 He will be accompanied by a representative from euthanasia advocacy group Exit International, which has raised almost $20,000 to cover his travel costs. 
  
 “I don’t want to go to Switzerland, though it’s a nice country,” Dr Goodall said. 
  
 “But I have to do that in order to get the opportunity of suicide which the Australian system does not permit. 
  
 “I feel very resentful.” 
  
 Dr Goodall made international headlines in 2016 when, at the age of 102, the university where he served as an honorary research associate ordered he vacate his office because he was a safety risk to himself. 
  
 He challenged the decision and, after much public backlash, it was reversed. 
  
 Drawn-out goodbye an ‘unsatisfactory’ end 
  
 In recent years the renowned academic’s physical condition has continued to deteriorate, along with his quality of life. 
  
 He said he appreciated the public’s interest in his plight and hoped it would spark more discussion about the issue of voluntary euthanasia. 
  
 “I would like them to understand it,” he said. 
  
 “I am 104 years old so I haven’t got much time left anyway. 
  
 “I might as well not have (my health) getting worse and worse, making me unhappy as it goes.” 
  
 Dr Goodall said he had the support of his family, with whom he’d had frank conversations about his decision. 
  
 “I’m saying farewell all the time,” he said. 
  
 “They realise how unsatisfactory my life here is, unsatisfactory in almost every respect. The sooner it comes to an end the better.” 
  
  
  
 Dr Goodall has been a member of Exit International for 20 years. 
  
 On his 104th birthday last month, he used the occasion to declare he would spend the rest of his days campaigning for voluntary assisted dying to be legalised in Western Australia. 
  
 “My feeling is that an old person like myself should have full citizenship rights including the right of assisted suicide,” Dr Goodall said. 
  
 “Once one is past the stage of middle life, one has paid back to society the debts that have been paid out. 
  
 “One should be free to use the rest of his life as one chooses. 
  
 “If one chooses to kill oneself then that’s fair enough. I don’t think anyone else should interfere.”

 -ABC ||||| Academic David Goodall turns 104 and his birthday wish is to die in peace 
  
 Updated 
  
 David Goodall turns 104 today. But truth be told, he takes no pleasure in getting older. 
  
 If he could be granted one birthday wish, it would be to die. 
  
 "I greatly regret having reached that age," Dr Goodall said. 
  
 "I would much prefer to be 20 or 30 years younger." 
  
 Dr Goodall made international headlines in 2016 when, at the age of 102, the university where he served as an honorary research associate ordered he vacate his office because he was a safety risk to himself. 
  
 He challenged the decision and, after much public backlash, it was reversed. 
  
 In recent years the renowned academic's physical condition has continued to deteriorate and so too has his quality of life. 
  
 He played tennis until the age of 90, when he could no longer keep up. 
  
 He performed with an amateur theatre group in Perth but was forced to give it away when his failing eyesight prevented him from driving himself to night-time rehearsals. 
  
 His poor vision also stops him from doing much of his academic work nowadays as he can't read his emails. 
  
 Most of his friends have died. 
  
 'I called out but no-one could hear me' 
  
 Dr Goodall was still using public transport to commute to and from his university office up until a couple of months ago when he had a fall in his one-bedroom apartment. 
  
 "I fell back-first into the corner of the flat and there was nothing that I could hold on to, so I just teetered around on the floor," he said. 
  
 "I called out but no-one could hear me." 
  
 He stayed on the floor for two days until he was found by his cleaner and taken to hospital, where doctors patched him up and forbade him from taking public transport or even crossing the road by himself. 
  
 "It upset me greatly being restricted in that way, being constrained," he said. 
  
 "There's certainly a lack of respect, there's no respect at all." 
  
 This week Dr Goodall celebrated his 104th birthday with family and friends at his daughter's home. 
  
 The ABC was invited along to capture the festivities. 
  
 But Dr Goodall wanted to use the opportunity to talk about something more important to him than his age. 
  
 A campaign of life and death 
  
 He's been a member of advocacy group, Exit International, for 20 years and plans to spend the rest of his days campaigning for voluntary euthanasia to be legalised in Western Australia. 
  
 "My feeling is that an old person like myself should have full citizenship rights including the right of assisted suicide," Dr Goodall said. 
  
 "Once one is past the stage of middle life, one has paid back to society the debts that have been paid out. 
  
 "One should be free to use the rest of his life as one chooses. 
  
 "If one chooses to kill oneself then that's fair enough. I don't think anyone else should interfere." 
  
 Coronial data has found that at least one West Australian with a terminal or debilitating disease is dying by suicide each fortnight. 
  
 More than half of the suicides are by people aged over 60, most of them men. 
  
 A WA Parliamentary Committee is currently examining the matter and is due to report back by August. 
  
 Late last year Victoria became the first Australian state to legalise voluntary assisted dying. 
  
 But under that legislation, Dr Goodall wouldn't be eligible, because he's not suffering from a terminal illness and despite being frail and almost blind, his health is in fact quite good. 
  
 'He has no control over his life' 
  
 Speaking matter-of-factly on the topic, Dr Goodall said he was neither fearful nor saddened about the prospect of his death. 
  
 "Why should it make me sad?" he asked. 
  
 "I don't regard it as grim, I regard it as natural. 
  
 "One lives some decades and then one dies. It's not sad. What is sad is if one is prevented." 
  
 Dr Goodall's daughter, Karen Goodall-Smith, is a clinical psychologist who has had frank discussions with her father about life and death. 
  
 "I am close to David and don't want this," Ms Goodall-Smith said. 
  
 "But also understand that there is little dignity and self-respect being so dependent on others. 
  
 "The doors have been gradually closing to him because of his physical wellbeing. 
  
 "He is stuck, he has no control over his life, over his body, over his eyesight. 
  
 "He's lived a really good 104 years. Whatever happens, whatever choices are made, they're up to him." 
  
 Ms Goodall-Smith, her brother and her son are now providing around the clock care to Dr Goodall in the hope that he won't have to move into a nursing home. 
  
 When asked if he'd had a happy birthday, Dr Goodall responded succinctly. 
  
 "No," he said. "I'm not happy. I want to die."

A: 
Australia's oldest scientist recently celebrated his 104th birthday, but it wasn't a joyous occasion. "I greatly regret having reached that age," David Goodall told ABC Australia in early April. "I'm not happy. I want to die." And that's exactly what Goodall, an esteemed ecologist, intends to do this month, with plans in the works to travel from Perth to a clinic in Basel, Switzerland, where staff there will help him end his life, the Guardian reports. Although Goodall doesn't have a terminal illness—a requirement for euthanasia in Victoria, the only state in Australia where assisted suicide will be legal as of June 2019—he says his quality of life has gone downhill and he doesn't want to prolong things. Switzerland is one of the few places in the world where, even though assisted suicide hasn't technically been legalized, it's not against Swiss law in "some circumstances," per the Washington Post. Goodall was in good shape into his 90s, when his vision started to fail. In 2016, Edith Cowan University, where he's an honorary research assistant, deemed him "unfit" to be on campus. Exit International, a euthanasia advocacy nonprofit that's helping organize his trip, has set up a GoFundMe page, calling the fact that he has to travel across the world to carry out his wishes a "pathetic state of affairs." "A peaceful, dignified death is the entitlement of all who want it," the group says in its latest newsletter. "And a person should not be forced to leave home to achieve it." Forbes notes Goodall—who tells the New Daily he feels "resentful" he has to go to Switzerland—has been an Exit International member for 20 years and "considering the next gradation for his own personal collection of carbon-based, life-bearing molecules for some time. Now, he's ready." (Check out this euthanasia pod.)
