Yep - i am ok with it all now.

Back to the o/p - just i dont think anyone can actually say its good or bad without actually physically watching a loved one literally die a bit more day by day by day.

When you have done i am sure your opinion will be changed on whether Euthanasia for humans should be made legal.

Its a really complex issue, which none of us can probably really comprehend unless we are in that position. Personally I'm with the consensus of allowing it, with strict regulation.

I watched my granddad just waiting to die living on a portable oxygen tank and regularly asking to die. Conversely my Grandmother after years of MS, constant pain, bed ridden, zero quality of life (in my view) wants to live and is terrified of the prospect of death.

I'd like to think I'd have the opportunity of choice if faced with the prospect of chronic pain or zero quality of life. It seems most people you speak to seem to have a similar opinion, so why is it our elected officials see it differently?

Maybe one for a referendum?
