Petition

Hey all, here is a link to my petition of stopping the use of Involuntary and non-voluntary euthanasia in Countries where it is currently legal or Neglected http://chng.it/swtTKgfPVm

Voluntary Euthanasia.

I personally think this is the only acceptable type of euthanasia Assuming the person has a incurable fatal disease and they are unlikely to last 12 months also i think its only acceptable if the person is of sound mind and it should only be done if the person to be euthanised has signed a legal document consenting to the euthanasia. This type of euthanasia is the only one that can provide benefit since it allows the person to die with dignity and have a peaceful passing. Since i think this is the only type of euthanasia that is acceptable i will not be arguing against it or posting anything that could effect it in a negative way

Introduction:

Euthanasia is a deliberate, intentional act of one person to end the life of another person in order to relieve that person’s suffering. For example, a doctor injects a patient with a lethal substance to relieve that person from unbearable physical pain. The term euthanasia is often used in different ways. Three of the most common are:

• Voluntary euthanasia: Euthanasia is performed at the request of the person whose life is ended, and that person is competent. For example, a doctor injects a competent patient, at their request, with a lethal substance to relieve that person from unbearable physical pain.
• Non-voluntary euthanasia: Euthanasia is performed and the person is not competent. For example, a doctor injects a patient in a post-coma unresponsive state (sometimes referred to as a persistent vegetative state) with a lethal substance.
• Involuntary euthanasia: Euthanasia is performed and the person is competent but has not expressed the wish to die or has expressed a wish that he or she does not die. For example, a doctor injects a competent patient who is in the terminal stage of a terminal illness such as cancer with a lethal substance without that person’s request.
