Please, Let Me Die ( In-class)

A. Summary.

1. He said that there were two types of euthanasia. The active euthanasia and the passive euthanasia are them. The active euthanasia is the one the patient request have their lives ended and second is the one the family of the patient request to let the patient die. The second type is legal in many part of the world. People are against in active euthanasia. These patients are in so much pain that they fear the pain more that they dead.

2. There are so many instances that people are expected to die but get well. Even though they requested to die because of the painful illness, they might change their mind later. We have to find hope for them instead of giving the option of suicide.

3. If the patient were someone he loves, he wouldn't want that person to be in so much pain. There are successful euthanasia program. Doctors do not make decisions to end patients' lives by them selves. For example, one doctor can not make a decision. He or she must seek a second opinion before performing the procedure. If patients were suffering from unbearable and constant pain then it's been merciful to help them to end their lives.

4. She said that we should focus on relieving their pain instead of helping them to die. If we allow the euthanasia, some serious problem could be happened. So we must not to allow the euthanasia.
