I agree with Billy. It is so sad to think that people might have to live in pain when they oculd be easily cured of that pain if that is what they choose. I am liberal, so I never believe that anyone should tell you what you should do for your own life or health, if it doesn't affect their well-being. In the case of euthanasia, it might make others sad, but really your choice doesn't hurt anyone else. I would definitely do it.
Now, here's a twist that I discussed in a class on euthanasia: what if your sister hade debilitating multiple sclerosis for many years, wanted to die, always depressed and unable to do anything for herslef, etc. , etc. She is unable even to cause her own death, which she really, really has thought long and hard about and would like to do. She needs your help because her hands are too twisted and painful to even turn the cap on a bottle of pills. Do you help her do what would make her happy?
