| 1393395 | 2015-01-31 02:59:00 | Raises the question, is Euthanasia legal if all you do is withhold treatment? If they choose to withhold treatment why not just give you an injection as you would a pet to save suffering? . 1)Apparently, yes it is. My mum has filled out a No Resuscitation type form. Means she can choose to have no treatment. 2)Because that involves a doctor giving you an overdoes, which currently isn't legal. I support euthanasia......I watched the Louis Theroux doco on Alzheimers, one part showed the advanced stage hospital ward........worse than most people realise. |

He was riddled with cancer, had lost all dignity having lost control of his bladder and bowel, and was simply rotting to death lying in his own excrement. Surly a man has some right to a dignified death. It makes sense to me too. If I end up like that, I hope I have the capability left to finish it, somehow. I think a person should to be able to choose, when it gets that bad. |
