Euthanasia is a painless killing of a patient suffering from an incurable and painful disease or in an irreversible coma. People decide to use euthanasia because they fell weak, tired, and uncomfortable. They suffer from pain or unacceptable side effects of pain medication, people may also have fear about the future. Euthanasia is the practice of intentionally ending a life in order to relieve pain and suffering. Some countries allow euthanasia, while some forbid them. Euthanasia is a law that should be taken into consideration in America. For those patients that have a disease that is completely incurable should be given the opportunity to die with dignity. There are 4 different types of euthanasia and they are voluntary is accordance with the authority consent of a dying person. Involuntary is contrary to an authoritative refusal of consent from the dying person. On-voluntary is done without an authoritative consent or authoritative refusal of consent from the dying person. Active euthanasia a case of killing. Passive euthanasia = a case of letting die. Those who deny euthanasia as a necessary law believe life is one worth living until the end, however, someone in a bed suffering cannot accomplish the value of living. In the documentary “ How to die in Oregon”, Roger Sager got over the counter dignity pills that would make him undergo a coma and die. “ These medications wouldn’t only kill me, but they will make me happy” he says. Although these people are leaving the world, leaving loved ones, these people don’t get to enjoy the happiness of life because of their pain.
Euthanasia prevents these people from experiencing the pain before they die. It helps them to leave in a calm way, and gives them the opportunity to die with dignity. No one wants their family member to live and suffer in pain. If you really love that person and want to make them happy, if that means leaving the world to be happy, euthanasia should be an option. Another example of someone that choose euthanasia in the documentary “ How to die in Oregon ” Cody Curtis, a 54 year old women was diagnosed with liver cancer as big as a grape fruit. There were not much treatment available to cure the cancer she was diagnosed with. Because of the pain she was in, she believed that if there were no better treatment, she wanted to end her life in dignity. In February, Cody was diagnosed with 6 months or less to live, luckily she outlived her six months, and was glad she had the opportunity to spend another year of Christmas with her family, sadly she couldn’t make it and had to take her death with dignity pill.

Someone who believes that euthanasia is an unnecessary law and believe it shouldn't be mandatory in America, believes that death is a grieving process. They believe that you should live your life until the end and not take the dignity pill before death. They believe that no one has the right to decide when a life will end. They also believe that its against Catholicisms , and no one should decide when their expiration death would be.
In Conclusion, as you can see some people do not believe in euthanasia and believe only God can give an expiration death , no one else should decide that, but why would someone continue their life in pain , not enjoying the time they have left . Because people know that death is near, they are afraid to deal with the pain they know they would be put through. No one should live their life unhappy and in pain , if they would be happier gone , and away from unbearable pain , then they should be given the option of euthanasia.
