Ky. (UP) The medical profession and the public should give more serious attention to suicides due to 111 health, believes Dr. Sidney Robby, arthritis specialist. He classifies the "self-mercy" sui cide aa the act of a diseased mind and hence never justified. Dr. Rob- by, who Is medical director of the Robby arthritis and asthma clinic here, Is convinced that hundreds of lives could be saved each year if the public was informed more thorough ly of the progress of medical science in the field of chronic and "Incur able" diseases. "The so-called mercy suicide," aald Dr. Robby, "is due to a state of mind It la auto-suggestion, a repetition of the thought that the struggle agairfst a supposedly incurable Illness Is hardly worth while. The truth Is that the man who is sick In body Is always sick In mind aa well. He is In such a state that even If there were some ray of hope he would re ject It and at the first unlooked-for opportunity a convenient gas Jet or a loaded gun his mind would me chanically do what It had been taught by suggestion. To prevent such a temporary lapse or fit of In sanity, th- person with an 'incurable' disease must never be left alone to brood over his illness, and must be continually buoyed up with hope of a cure. In cases of arthritis and allied ail ment of which there are 6.000.000 sufferers In this country the Indi vidual has a definitely hopeless out look. Many are confined to wheel chairs with constant pain and disuse of hands and legs. They see them selves growing worse and worse each year, suffering more Intensely,' and when expedients resorted to lose the power to relieve, the patients become desperate. With nothing to look for ward to, the average patient usually resigns himself to what he believes to be an impossible situation. In evitably the thought of suicide enters his mind, and too often the thought is translated to action. "Yet in arthritis aa In other dis eases which are thought to be Incur able, suicide Is not justified because medical science Is marching forward and each day adding to our know ledge. In rheumatism scientifically minded doctors are perfecting new means of combatting It, and today the progress of the disease definitely can be stopped and the pain re lieved."
