Moral Dillema

[Dirty Harry]

if its what they want then definatly. Dont the doctors and hospitals do the same? You see their comes a point when the battle with a terminal illness is lost and its well before the person dies too.

With cancer for instance there comes a point when the morphine actually begins to help the deterioration then help with the disease. I know this doesnt sound very positive but it is a fact. Its funny really when you think of it. The religous ppl of these hospitals would frown at the prospect of what your post suggests yet have no probs upping the morphine dosage to lethal ammounts.

They have to do it but its pretty much the same thing in the end to be honest.

interesting,
Westside.

westsidex you are correct and right

Werstside hit the nail on the head..
In hospitals , hospice etc this is known as "pain relief"..

But if i had a loved one in front of me screaming in pain and begging me to help them die, i would do what they wanted..
No prob picking up a few wraps of heroin on the streets and making up a lethal dose that would be totally painless..

Q: An elderly relative has a terminal illness and asks you to help them end their life. Helping them commit suicide is against the law but your relative begs you. Would you assist with their suicide?

No, never. I simply don't have the balls.

i would say yes...and hope it will be legal in more countries than now!but just in case ov a long term illness..i belive its better to die than live a half life with the help ov younger relatives!
the truth is old ppl exactly same than young babies the difference is everyone adores babies but not all feel the same with oldies...

So you could kill the oldies because they arent cute anymore.
As for only having half a life would you kill the handicapped too
or the physically disabled or mentaly impaired?

thats a touchy subject.I guess it depends on the disability.The problem with disability is two ppl could have the same disability.One lives a life restricted completly by the disability whereas the other lives the best he/she can and is less restricted.Its a tricky subject.

Another unfortunate part of this is alot of ppl born mentally slow die quite young.

depends,

It is a touchy subject alright Westie. Even if they do die quiet young , would you end their lfe if you could , hypotheticly if there was no legal consequence, because they dont conform to your standerd of life quality. This goes for anybody with any disability
