Italian shoots wife in hospital
A 77-year-old Italian man has been arrested after shooting dead his wife as she lay in hospital. Police in the Tuscan city of Prato said the man shot his 82-year-old wife, who had Alzheimer's disease, three times in full view of medical staff.
The man told police he did it because he could not stand to see her suffer.
His wife had been diagnosed eight years ago with the degenerative and irreversible brain disorder, which causes dementia and eventually death.

i came across this article in the bbc news webbie. and i thought this is quite related to what i am studying in developmental psychology, regarding Kohlberg's theory in moral development uh. So do you think the man should be convicted for his crime? Do you consider this morally right or wrong?
talking about studying for dev psy... although the prof gives us 6 exams questions to work out, in which 3 of them will come out for our exams... but i still go crazy over it. ): serene, abby, vic and me shared the questions among ourselves and worked it out in point form before distributing to one another. ahhh!! and maybe cuz dev psy i haven't been studying all along(cuz i knew exams questions will be given us to prepare). AIYAH! her questions are just so... OMG. SIGH.
okokays, relax ping ping. after tomorrow everything will be fine, although i still have the emotions paper on wed. but, AT LEAST 98% has ended. (:
biopsy was alritey i think. if i have better memory, then it could be much better. nydc with my stats mates before starbucks. we had initally wanted to prepare our dev psy questions, BUT, post paper syndrome overwhelmed us. (: we ended taking photos, and in the midst of waiting for serene's dad to fetch her, we talked about some gender and relationships issues. now fadzri should be saying 'whats new leepin'. HAHAH. TSK.
bahhh. i'm dying lar. ):
