Terminal Illness Decision
Terminal illness decision
In this essay I have the subject of deciding whether or not people with a terminal illness should have the option to commit doctor assisted suicide. In my opinion yes and I will explain my reasoning in this essay.
On CNN.com doctor assisted suicide is suicide only performed on a person with a terminal illness with 6 months or less to live. It is only legal in 5 states including Oragan, Vermont, Washington, California, and only in Montana via court decision.
From Pbs.org a man named Andrew Soloman said, “I feel there should be notice boards reminding people that the right to physician aid in dying does not affect the people who deplore it.” I do agree with this statement because just like a gay married couples relationship
doesn't affect people's relationships who are straight.
Some people often ask the question of whether or not physician assisted suicide in ethical or unethical. Well if you look at it this way suicide in general is unethical and immoral but if someone is in pain and suffering 24/7 and only have a certain amount of time before they die I think they deserve the right to have the decision of doctor assisted suicide.
In my opinion, if I had a certain amount of time to live I wouldn't want to commit doctor assisted suicide I would try to live that time out to the fullest and enjoy the time I had while it was in my reach. But if I wasn't able to do so because my illness was so great, yes I would commit doctor assisted suicide. This concluded my essay of whether or not people should have the right to commit doctor assisted suicide and my opinion is yes, people should have the right.
