Terminal Illness (32)
bigjb62: Me thinks he protest to much, and is still trying to be relevant. That's just an observation based on empirical data.
Bigboy, I was starting to worry that you weren't going to dignify my comment with a reply. I should have known you wouldn't let me down, you o'l muffin face, you.

bigjb62: Anytime Liberals are involved you get just the opposite of what's right, and because to much of our country has been taken over by a minority of Liberals and their religious ideology most of us suffer for it.
Does that mean legally taking your own life when the pain gets to bad something that couldn't work? In a better world it could. But then again in a better world we might not have sickness and pain to deal with anyway.

Very liberal idea, being in control of when its time to die. Not up to some religous nutter ( many opposed anethesia for surgery when first invented believing god wanted them to suffer 
)
Im a little too center for that, though, generally I think.

galrads: Should a person who is suffering from a terminal illness be able to end their life?
I say yes. I’d love to read anyone’s your opinions of this issue.

Killing the patient seems a rather stark violation of the hippocratic oath. I'd be concerned of dragging the profession of medicine down to the level of a vet, and also the numbers of people who seemingly care more about animals than human beings reflects on how worthless and lonely people must genuinely feel to relate more closely to animals.
Introducing assisted suicide into a society with serious self-esteem issues and a profession which is supposed to save lives is problematic.

I wouldn’t seek assistance to suicide.... I could do it with a bag over my head and a gun like the cancer patient’s role performed by Woody Harelson does in the movie Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

I feel that if someone is dying of a terminal illness and there's recovery in sight such as my late husband,my mother etc then they should have had a right to end their own life.Non of this continually being on life support stuff just so the medical field can scam the families and play god so to speak.

Chesney Christ Explain to me how allowing a loved one die peacefully while a family member is sitting by while a loved is suffering and being on life support when there is no recovery whatsoever being in violation of the hippocratic oath that the medical professionals take when then they become doctors????
I know all to well what that is like.I stood by my mother's hospital bad while my mother was on life support and all of a sudden the sound of the life support sounded and my mother was gone.She was already mecdically brain dead anyway but they still placed her on life support anyway.

I think so if they are going to be suffering something horrible towards the end.

Terminal illness and prolonging extreme suffering with high tech? No, not me. I had a bad burst appendix a few decades ago, turned green literally, had two hundred tubes coming out of me, and still hallucinated from pain with morphine drip. Supposed to die. I just decided it wasnt time.
Ive read that doctors often decide when nearly terminal patients have been through enough and are ready.

People living here today who have long used pain medications for legitimate reasons are being weaned from it to suffer because of the greed of doctors pushing pain meds on others who didn’t need it.
This country alone makes enough bad judgements regarding people, look how badly we treat our homeless veterans but treat illegals far far better.
