COMMITTING SUICIDE FOR DUMMIES (bestseller)

WHOA!!! Crazy article. I'm torn between feeling completely disgusted by these acts and kind of sympathizing with the victims and possibly understanding the enablers' views. I don't agree with handing out full-fledged guides to commit suicide, terminal illnesses involved or not. Yet there is a sense of desperation and pain that may cause the ill to desire to not live. Maybe the people who help them kill themselves feels there creating a public service or something. The article gives slight explanation but definitely not justification!!! A natural death may take longer and come with burdens but it was how God planned it to be. That strong of an involvement in the death of approximately 200 people is sickening and unjustifiable.

  1. Euthanasia is about having the right to die with dignity. The decision to end personal physical suffering is made with the assistance of psychologists and medical staff. It is legal in Oregon, as well as several European countries. It is for those people for whom there is no cure for a disease, who live in unremittent pain and have lost bodily functions. What is unreasonable for them to want to discontinue their lives?
