Dealing with 'Good Death'

Miracle Recoveries. They happen and I am pleased that they do. I advocate that those who are capable of making their rational decisions regarding their own end of life experience be allowed to do so.

Euthanasia. A good death according to the Greek words "Eu", good and "Thanatos", death. A choice for those who are able to make that choices.

Euthanasia is a peaceful and painless death. It is an easy death according to some dictionary. It is commonly called mercy killing.

On the other hand, it is quite possible without external intervention. The patient who wish to end up his/her life needs somone to do it for him/her. That's why the meaning has been changed to "assisted death"...so the argues now if whether the physician should be involved in the process or not.

It is first in foremost, against the doctors duty and responsibility : to do whatever it takes to takes care of anyone. secondly, the debaters ofetn factors in moral and religious beliefs.

In the United States, for better or for worse, something like concensus-medical, ethical and legal has come to inform the handling of patients to diagnosed as being PVS cases in which no more clear direction, that keeping the patient alive is pointless.

The families and attending physicians of such patients have a panel of meeting to determine whether those patients should continue to receive treatment and sustenance. if the patients wish to stop the treatment, the decision i much easier to make.

Other ethical thinkers, including many philosopher, religious leaders andtheologians say that the fissures run far deeper because they result not just from the peculiarities of a difficult case but from questionable assumptions about the status and case of PVS patients in general. At its crux, they say the question is whwther to removed the machine that keeps them alive or whether it is withholdong basic care in a way that causes death.

As I understand, "You are not supposed to do anything to hasten death, but on the other hand, there is no need to anything to artificially prolong life."

Every living thing is sentence to death. Yes, there are many ways to keep as alive but will you let your loved one still in pain for a long period of time in which he/she chooses to die?

Do what you can to make the lives of those around you better. That is enough. The rest will follow. Otherwise, you just continue to support those who are antithetical to all that you know to be right. There is a right and then there is everything else. You have the privilege to choose. You are not eclusively subject to the distates of others. Choose the right thing every time.
