Persuasive Essay On Euthanasia

If the option of euthanasia were available the sufferer could say their final goodbyes, savor precious moments with the ones they love, then, with the help of their physician, slip slowly into a peaceful sleep from which they would never awake. Ending the life of the patient would not only ensure that their suffering would finally be over, but it would give the family the peace of knowing that their loved one ended their life in a state of comfort. I am not saying that we should encourage someone to give up the fight of their life. Euthanasia is not to be forced onto someone. Euthanasia is an option to be given to those who have no other choice and are in desperate search of a solution to their suffering. Euthanasia is something to be turned to when the quality of life is so poor that the patient isn’t living, they are merely existing.

In 1994, physician-assisted suicide became legal in Oregon which was the only state during that time. Physician-assisted suicide, also euthanasia, is when a physician provides a patient with the medical means or the medical knowledge to commit suicide. Particular words are so sensitive that individuals across the world are still, to this day, attempting to delete the Death with Dignity Act. The notion legalizing assisted suicide frightens citizens; however, they do not know how the patient feels. Laws like this should be used to open the minds of citizens who believe that physician-assisted dying is morally wrong and help patients in pain. Patients with a terminal illness should be allowed assisted suicide because their organs can be used freely to save another's life, they can pass knowing it was their choice, and it can decrease the hospital costs of the patients.

Assisted suicide is when the suicide of a patient suffering from an incurable disease, affected by the taking of lethal drugs provided by a doctor for this purpose. It’s a personal decision and no one should make that decision for them. It’s their life and they should be able to decide what to do with it.

“Does an individual who has no hope of recovery have the right to decide how and when to end their life?”. Some people want to make euthanasia legal because they believe that people who are really sick should chose when they want to end their life because people think it's better that they “die in dignity” and instead of them suffering and being in pain for the rest of their lives. Also some people say that the ones that are sick should be able to get a say in when they want end their life because it’s their body and it’s not right for people to tell or make someone to keep on living if they don't want to or if they are suffering from

Everyone has experienced an extreme pain at some point in their life. This pain could be physical or emotional; but could you imagine being told you have to live with that pain until you die that could be days, months, or years from now? What if you were then told that you were going to die soon from that pain? Would you choose physician assisted suicide (PAS) if you didn’t want to suffer anymore? Euthanasia is defined as the painless killing of a patient suffering from an incurable disease or an irreversible coma. However, if it is what you want who should stand in your way; some of the states in the United States are legalizing this option. In order to make sure this option is the right one, there is a criterion the patient must meet as well as a few other protocols. If euthanasia is legal in some states, why shouldn’t it be legal in all and should it be legal in general? I believe it should be legal in all states.

If you could decipher your death, how would you choose to die? How would that answer change if you were suffering? Euthanasia, also known as “good death,” is the act of putting a living thing to death painlessly or allowing them to die by withholding extreme medical practices, such as withholding food. Then there is involuntary euthanasia: “a competent person’s life is brought to an end despite an explicit rejection of euthanasia” as stated by Robert Young, the author of Medically Assisted Death. In the case of euthanasia, many people will argue that it is murder, but considering all the ways to die, it is one of the most humane ways to end a life.

Doctors are supposed to save our lives but now we have physician- assisted suicide that help patient kill themselves. Assisted suicide or euthanasia mean easy death. According to Oregon Death with Dignity Act Data summary 2016, 1,127 patients who have died from ingesting a lethal dose of medication as of January 23, 2016, Oregon, 1998–2016, because of DWDA (Death with Dignity Act). Today we live in a world where people want freedom to do whatever they want. Now people in states that allow Death with Dignity Act, they have the choice of killing themselves if they are in pain. And by choosing euthanasia, they will not be able to make another choice for themselves; their perspective might change overtime and they don’t know what the future is going to bring. Justifying assisted suicide doesn’t make it right because there is no human way to kill someone killing is killing and it doesn’t matter how you do it. When we accept euthanasia, we believe that the life of the sick or the disable are worth less than others and we should not end our life just because it will put an end to our suffering.

Throughout the evidence, it is made clear that little is currently certain about this substance. The regulation is hard with no immediate scientific roadside test. Even though there are no long term health effects for people with fully developed brains child exposure is a major concern. Additionally, dependency on the drug could pose a risk to the health and functionality of people in our communities. Although, the decrease in crime and opioid use would inevitably increase the safety of our communities and it is true that the dangers that marijuana poses to our society are already present due to the legal status of alcohol and tobacco. From this information my conclusion would be that it should remain illegal until a functional roadside test is put into place in the form of training of all police officers or an actual sobriety/blood test. I believe that although this could be a great way to make our country more secure, we should be able to have complete regulations before it is legalized nationwide.
