I don't understand why we do not allow euthanasia for people. It is my life-if I want to die I should be able to chose this and die with diginity. If I have a terminal disease or I am in chronic pain or even mental anguish (severe depression) and I want to end my life I should be able to do it painlessly and safely. That being said, I will definitely have a bottle of beuth stashed away (or maybe some phenobarb and valium or propofol) if the time ever comes and I am in a situation where I can no longer lead a productive, happy life. For me it is about QUALITY, not quantity. I have dealt with hospice (my father passed away 2 years ago) and frankly there is no way I am going to go through that. I will not go to a nursing home. We all are going to die someday-you cannot escape it-why not make it peaceful and painless??

I suppose vets see it differently than most people b/c we perform euthanasia everyday-and I thank the lord we can.
