| Message | Euthanasia is doctor assisted suicide. It is obtained either through oral consent (either the patient, or if that is not a possibility, by a guardian) or through written consent in the form of a living will. And abortion... we could debate the start of life, and there are many theories on it. But we won't. This is a privacy issue between a woman, her doctor and maybe her partner. It's not fair to force someone to live if they don't want to. If they want to die, then it is their right. |
