EUTHANASIA
Nowadays,
the medicine has advanced a lot in terms of looking after people's health.
However, there are still some illnesses that seem not to have any cure. That is
the case of cancer, or even other disease that doctors can't acknowledge, but
there could be a cure for them. It is called euthanasia, which is approved in
some countries and negated in others. It is because there are two different
points of view. One of them is the religious point and the other is the
medical.
First
of all, let’s define what euthanasia is. According to Medical News Today, euthanasia
or also called assisted suicide refers to deliberate action taken with the
intention of ending a life, in order to relieve persistent suffering. Nonetheless,
this action is against the law in some countries, it is because the religion is
very raised. People who decide to take the assisted suicide as a way to stop the
pain are considered as murders. Because, religion claims that euthanasia is
against the will of God, love, and life. But, religious people do not consider
the suffering from the family and the person with the disease. They just want
to do what is correct according to their beliefs and what they called “commandments”.
Second
of all, the medical viewpoint agrees on taking assisted suicide, it is not because
doctors are murders, but they think about the sorrow that sick people are
facing. Specialist affirm that, they take the decision of making euthanasia by
voluntary approval. However, if the sick person cannot make a choice because
their illness prevents it, familiar are in charge of doing that. For instance,
the most difficult and painful election, to end the life of someone they love.
On the other hand, they are doing the best for the patient, since they do not
want him or her to continue suffering.
From
my consideration, Euthanasia must be approved, not only for animals, but also
for humans. Life is not a game, but we need to take into account that his
could be the best decision; not only for the patient, but also for the family.
So,
it is your turn:
What
do you think about euthanasia?
Are
you in favor of assisted suicide?
I consider that it is the best way for someone who has a terminal illness or for their relatives. Certainly, you don't want to lose your relative but is she or he is suffering because of their illness. You have to let go. So, I am in favor of this kind of procedure because it helps to get a dignified death.
ResponderEliminarGood post Bryan! I totally agree with you. Euthanasia should be approved because you are the only person who should take decisions on your body and not based on any religion which have already caused a lot of problems in our society.
