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

I would never do an assisted suicide. But I don't believe in being hooked up to machines to stay alive, as that is not living anyway.

I have helped take care of my mother and several other 'end of life' ladies. They all chose to stay home until the end. That was hard as well, but at least it was natural.

@Magenta that was I'd love and hope I don't need to stay at any pony connected to a machine or an hospital.. But human health is so fragile that sometimes to save you, like in an emergency you need those..
Anyway if I was conscious and without hope and in that situation I'd ask someone that but honestly I doubt anyone would do it.

@SW-User I hope you never have to be faced with it. 🤗
