Euthanasia - the right to die with dignity.
If you are a person whom is terminally ill or a family member witnessing helplessly a loved one in distress and agony through their illness then yes Euthanasia should be legalised in the UK. There will be people out there that say no a person should die of natural causes, but unless you are the person with a terminal illness or a family member suffering along with that person they should take a long hard look at the agony and heartache witnessing that person die under such horrific circumstances, and think why should this be allowed? If an animal was terminally ill and no further treatment was available it would immediately be Euthanized. An animal cannot say if it want's this option, but a person or family member can and SHOULD be at least given the legal right and option to do so. If the said person whom is termally ill cannot make the decision for themselves through mental problems, loss of communication or unconsiousness, then the next of kin should be offered euthanasia, giving the terminally ill person a dignified and less painfull distressing death.
my dad asked to be given the bottle of morphine medicine when he was in agony from cancer, the so called 'poo' test came back negative when he had a 10inch Tumour and suffered terribly since boxing day 2015 eventually passing away on 10th feb 2015. About 4 stone in weight and not wanting his family to see him like that. My sister who works at our local hospital was given time off through stress looking after mum and dad because I through illness myself couldn't help as much and the so called caring proffesion have sent her a letter to go in front of Human Resources in an interview about why she has had so much time off work, the last thing our dad said to her were"please don't go back to work 'till I've gone" and now she may not have work to go back too.

I just spent 4days waiting for my nans organs to fail. she suffered a massive bleed in the brain and there was no chance of survival. She would have hated being like that and would have hated seeing us so upset. if i had an option to end the awful 4 days for her i would have. i dont understand the need for all the pain and suffering.
