So if a friend or someone dear to you is really sick and suffering from some incurable illness (

And they feel awful cause their family is spending lots of money on them, and they're really dependent on others... Even for simple tasks..

And asks you to turn off the machine that's keeping them alive or help them (a form of assisted suicide... Or more accurately euthanasia) would you?

If I see they can't improve and they ask me that I'd help them.

Was playing that game "life is strange" and there you face that decision, pretty great game

That s a difficult one, I don’t think I could, it would eat away at me. 😞

@SW-User really tough definitely 😐😐😐😐 cause the family too, but it's their wish so 😐😐😐

I don’t think I’d want that responsibility in ending a life, I’ve been on the other side and had to watch someone die.
Liverpool pathway, basically they starve you to death, no food or water until you die.
She was only in her 40’s, I found it very traumatic and questioned them.
I could never let anyone I love go through that.

@SW-User that sounds like a torture... 😔 Would be better something quick and not that whole process 😞sounds very traumatizing to have lived that 😐

So inhuman, it really affected me, I looked at the medical world differently after that.

SW-User

@SW-User why doing that... Even with pets there's more decency 😐😐😐😐an injection and that's it

I really don’t know, would have been kinder to do that. They abolished it but they probably still do it.
Just rename it, pump them full of morphine.
Worse than euthanasia.

SW-User

@SW-User why would you say it's worse?
They're already dead without the medical help, they're practically having a long long agony...
I'd do their will, if that's what they want

@SW-User she had a stroke, her body couldn’t move but she’d understand everything that was going on. As it doesn’t affect the brain.
They didn’t give her a chance to recover. The Liverpool
Pathway is worse than euthanasia I meant. I didn’t agree with it. Would have been kinder to put her to sleep.

SW-User

@SW-User I see, yeah that seems very dehumanizing 😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞

It was hard to watch my cousin, she was like my sister, we grew up together, the ones making the decisions weren’t close to her, I did try for her and spoke up. 😞
