All of us have the right to live,with it shouldn't we get the right to die too, please note there is a huge difference with suicide,a cowardly act , which is more often brought about by emotional or social lows.
As strange as it may sound,euthanasia could be the most weirdest display of human freedom(even suicide follows a parallel logic),the will to decide as to when to die.The governments across the world pride on the fact that the governing system is for improving the quality of life,it can be argued that the existing laws on euthanasia directly contradicts their purpose, leaving people in a state of prolonged misery and hopelessness.
Since pain is always bad and continued pain is worse the subject should and must have the right to decide how he wants to handle the situation.What good will they feel leaving with constant pain and dissatisfaction?
The topic is gradually gaining high importance, Netherlands has made the act legal,some states in US have modified laws which support mercy killing (like providing the lethal shots,but can only be injected by the patient),this week we heard the news of the natural death of a French woman Chantal Sebire who has been suffering from excruciating pain for a long time now caused by Nasal cancer, she had been campaigning for a change in the French laws to give her the right to die, she died a painful death without being able to bring any change in the French laws.
Hope all these stories of pain and struggle force authorities and doctors to bring a change in the laws allowing for the person to decide when to end his suffering.
