If Euthanasia becomes legal in this country
safeguards shall be put in place,
and proper procedures will have to be followed,
and regulated. Just as with abortions, or any
other medical procedures that are performed today.
Making it legal will give terminally ill
people with incurable diseases
a choice to request a peaceful and dignified
death, rather than having their lives prolonged
by artificial means. However it will be up to a
panel of medical practitioners
to decide whether the request is granted. It also
doesn't mean that those who don't want to be given this
option have to have it. It will be a matter of individual
choice.
