Euthanasia is defined as performing an action on an incurably ill patient, with the deliberate intention of causing death as a result. By supporting the legalisation of euthanasia and signing this petition, you will provide Australia's terminally ill citizens with the chance of a humane and dignifying death, rather than a slow and painful one. Euthanasia can make a difference to Australian society because it gives patients back their freedom and respect that they had for themselves before their life-ending disease walked into their life.
