Euthanasia
Euthanasia
Euthanasia is one of the most complicated issues in the Medical field due to the clash of ethically point of views. Nowadays, the lives of many patients can be saved with the latest discoveries in treatments and technology. But we still are unable to find cure to all illnesses, and patients have to go through extremely painful treatments only to have time. These patients struggle with physical and psychological pain. Due to highly costs treatments, few capability to have total control of their lives and the only option to live a short amount of time with painful treatments: People should have the right, with certain restrictions, to end their lives in the best way possible to stop suffering of an endless pain. Society should have compassion and respect to the patient's decision whose life becomes unbearable.
Euthanasia refers to the practice of intentionally ending a life in order to relieve pain and suffering. If a person with a terminal illness is suffering unbearable pain and wishes to end his or her life, is it wrong to help? Well, that's why euthanasia, the intentional termination of life at the explicit request of that person, has been a hotly debated and controversial subject. Is it right or wrong?
So, why are people in favor of euthanasia? I believe that if a person is in extreme pain and does not wish to continue living, he or she has the right to end it with or without assistance. These people are saying that they feel they do not deserve to suffer.
Others say it's murder to help someone kill themselves, even when they've given permission. Or how do you know if someone was in a proper state of mind when requesting assistance? I think you would have to be sane to tell someone how and when you would like to die, and then ask for help to do it.
Many people worry that if we make euthanasia legal, people will go around killing others and claim the ill wanted them to. That is why explicit written consent is necessary.
