Euthanasia

Euthanasia is a painless killing of a patient suffering from an incurable and painful disease or is in an irreversible coma. However, the practice of euthanasia is illegal in most countries. While I don’t like euthanasia, I think it should be used with the permission of the patient. I think that euthanasia should be used if the patient doesn’t want to suffer from a disease where there is no cure. I think that it should not be used on anyone, only the people who want to be taken out of their misery. I believe this because some people would rather have a quick and painless death then having a long and torturous death. An example in the book we are currently reading, Of Mice and Men, Candy’s dog was put out of its misery be being shot in the back of the head with a gun. If the dog was not shot, then the dog would be in pain because it was almost blind and couldn’t walk at all. On the other hand, a person who hates life could pretend to have an incurable and painful disease, so the doctor would kill them, so they don’t have to kill his or herself. This is why I think that euthanasia should be used.
