Euthanasia

Euthanasia is a legal practice to end a life with medicine. It will only be considered due to a terminal illness or in a state that they can’t heal or recover. Medical procedure is seen to some people as devalue to human life. It is a resourceful way to make confusing situation in a medical field go easier especially if a patient is in tremendous pain. So do you think that Euthanasia is ethical way of life?
Clearly, some support Euthanasia without hesitation and others refuse the thought of the whole process. To receive the treatment you have to go through a large amount of testing from mentally and physical testing. The doctor’s want to make sure that the patient is capable to make a huge decision while being in a stable mindset. Assisted suicide is legal in the states of Oregon, Washington and Montana. Oregon legalized assisted suicide by ballot in 1994 and Washington slowly joined them threw ballot in 2008. The Montana State Supreme Court legalized the practice in 2009. It is just a matter of time until the rest of the United States joins the movement.
Consider also, that Christians and different religious groups have their different views on the idea of euthanasia. Some would say god is love and if someone love’s their family member keeping someone in pain and suffering wouldn’t be a good way to live. So as you can see some Christian’s support the practice but on the flip side some would see it as unethical way to die instead of dying under your own will. So there lies an issue between the views of ethical and unethical choices.  Someone shouldn’t be forced to live if in unbearable pain because in the long run it isn’t doing anything but letting them suffer and build debt for the family to take care after they have passed away.
When I consider, these simple points and counter points it makes me believe that the procedure should be legalized all over the world because a person knows when they are in so much pain that they can’t handle. So back to the question at hand do you think that Euthanasia is ethical way of life? I support the procedure yes without a doubt it is a personal choice that should be given to citizens as a right.




Will you let me suffer from this pain and let me you collect debt for our family?
