When asked whether relatives blame the WZA for something, Diekstra cannot say too much. “What my clients especially want to know: if something happened to their loved one, how could it have happened. How could a nurse perform or not perform actions? As long as there is uncertainty about this, my clients cannot blame the hospital. “
The relatives are therefore waiting for answers in a case that the lawyer describes as a bad film. “How great must you feel when you decide that someone no longer has to live. That you give someone the end of their life. That idea is really unreal. Anyway, we don’t know who actually acted or did not act is deceased.”
