I'd say it's my biggest fear, too.

My mother and I have had this discussion. I certainly am not leaving her on any mountain top. We're not Spartans, you know. But I absolutely am sure that I would help her not have to be physically there when she is mentally not. It'

My grandmother died a very long death. Her body was healthy. It was her brain that took a powder, and made an early exit. Although it wasn't Alzheimer's, the dementia took the "her" out of her. Her slow exit was made at "the old-folks home", not with famil

From the "limitations of this study" part of your link:

"Only 3299 of the 6642 doctors approached completed the survey. The views and practices of doctors who did not participate may differ from those of the doctors who did participate. The a

In these particular cases, I know because I knew the individuals involved at the time. I have heard that some hospices do permit overmedication, but from what I gather most do not.

My point is that, with the pre-natal technology we have and that we will have in the future, there really isn't any reason for a woman to have to carry a fetus to term which will be born with severe birth defects like anacephaly. Obviously, I don't k

What does "intentional killing" mean in medical parlance anyway? Apparently, it's considered acceptable to withdraw food & water, and let the person starve to death slowly, but it's not OK to add enough morphine into their IV-drip to le

It sounded closer to a framework that would allow the doctors to have this conversation with the patient's family.

Doctors will not even discuss the possibility of letting someone whose life expectancy is 3 months of pain and suffering or even less die. "We have to do everything medically possible," or "we cannot assist in ending a life" is the refrain

Letting doctors talk about the possibility that sometimes, it is best for the person and their family to end suffering seems to be the goal here. And I think that is a very worthwhile goal.
I am not a doctor Thalia, but I'm skeptical t

it's never to late in the game (or too early) to take a human life as long as those around it feel that it's an inconvenience.
I better look over my shoulder. I feel pretty expendable.

I don't think anyone is arguing that the decision should be made by the patient and/or family. But right now, that is absolutely not the case. Doctors will not even discuss the possibility of letting someone whose life expectancy is 3 months of

I am in a general a supporter of euthanasia - but at the discretion of the person involved or the person's family.
Life is a fatal condition. There is no known cure, so its a matter of degrees when deciding when life is not worth living. Such nuan

The newspaper reported that the college was not formally calling for active euthanasia to be introduced, but wanted the mercy killing of newborn babies to be debated by society.
I think that's perfectly reasonable, and far from crossing a bright
