Of course I support euthanasia, that should be allowed for the hopeless people who don't want to suffer anymore. But that should be a special comitee where the people who want euthanasia sdhould be judged.

Situational question
Being in a vegetative state or in a comatose state entails a lot of financial, physical and emotional sacrifices for the families of the patient.
Given the fact that someone close to you or you yourself is in a comatose state, will you allow for the "pulling of the plug" or will you fight for your life?

For me euthanasia will never be a bad thing specially for those who want to rest for the restless illness. Are you willing to fight for something you will never know if there is a chance or the so called miracle happen if you prolonged the misery of one person because you are not favor of that euthanasia?

euthanasia is killing a person who is hopeless to recover from any illness. my opinion about it is euthanasia is not good because it is like murder. we should not get someone's life even if it is very miserable.

I don't think that we have the right to end one's life because first and foremost the author and the giver of life is God himself.Our life is God who gives and it is also in God's mysterious time and ways that he takes it. We let go and let God.

If the family is can cater the expenses then I'll choose not to pull the plug and wait for a miracle but if the family is already in debt and somehow struggling I would choose to pull the plug, without any hesitation even the family disagrees it would be for their own good.

Financial constraints is a huge consideration when it comes to situations like this. Even though the patient already is suffering due to being in a coma state, if the family is nit willing to let go and also has the capacity of paying hospital dues, then might as well just prolong the life of the patient. But going back, we must also take into consideration the situation and difficulty of living of the patient itself.

The goals of the medical profession should continue to remain one of saving lives but this should not be at the expense of compassion and a terminally ill individual's right to choose to end his or her life and die with dignity.

Financially, I think it would be very wise to pull the plug especially if there is no chance that there is going to any recovery whatsoever, until there the last measure is exhausted I think they should keep the patient still alive no matter what state that he/she is in.

It depends on people. But for me, in case I am in that state, I'd rather pull the plug. I do not want to be my family burden. I know i will not go further so why should i continue to stay. In such case, i thought that it is better to die than survive and will just suffer the pain every minute of the rest of our life.

I agree with many of the replies here. Depends on the severity and the impact to the persons quality of life. Why suffer unending pain? Why prolong the death? Who benefits from all this, sounds pretty selfish to me to make people carry on when nature doesn't want them to.

I am very much for euthanasia and assisted suicide for the terminally ill. I have also already spoken to all my loved ones, and have told them to pull the plug on my if I ever end up in a vegetative state.

I don't think it's fair to force people to suffer day after day. Some people just don't want to hurt anymore, and they don't want to put any more financial strain on their families. Why do we force people to continue living half lives? People aren't meant to live forever. It's great that we have all these medical advances in society, but someday we are going to have to stop being so terrified of death, and realize that death has it's place and purpose too.

Well, it is indeed difficult to decide and much more if the person is so loved dearly by you but, if i were to be asked what am i going to do, if i had been given zero hopes, i will not fight for the persons life if i dont have the means to fight and pursue the treatment but i will not for sure agree to pull the plug. May it never be in my hand and in my decision. I will let God decide for everything after all He is the giver of this life.

I also agree that euthanasia should be legal. People should be allowed to end their own life in extreme situations - but only after a psychiatrist ruled out schizophrenia, depression and other psychiatric conditions that can lead to suicide.

I tell u a story
One man wanted to die, but had no brave to do it himself. Huh Cause of unexplained circumstances Huh he put an announcement to the newspaper where he told that he was in search of smbd who would kill him and then eat the remains. He suggested a big payment for this service. And there was another man, who respond to this announcement. Two men negotiated to implement the plan. Everything turned round perfectly.
Police catch the "cannibal" and imprisoned him. He will die into prison.
In my mind, if u wanna die and have rational base under your desire nobody shold stopps u.
u or smbd trustworthy do may choose various ways

I'm not against it, but the decision should be in the hands of the person in a comatose state. Don't think anyone has the right to put a person to death, without their consent.

Euthanasia is necessary. On the one hand, huge money is spent on maintaining a lifestyle with another flour of loved ones and the life of the patient: lying in a coma and nothing to realize - that life will call, and if you just paralyzed, so it is generally quiet horror...

Euthanasia or also known as mercy killing is illegal. Ib don't if I'll be against it or not because I'm thinking about it when one of my family is on coma situation and have small chance to survive, I'll fight for that small chance. And if I'm on that situation that have small chance to survive, I want to end it because I don't want my family suffer seeing me on that situation.

   I beleive that current situation is unfair. Modern state constitution law provides "right to live" but does not provide "right to die". Government wants slaves to live anyway because they push finansial system, pay taxes, authorities dont care if slaves suffer. However anyone can make decision to live or die obviously

 can't explain what is the reason to all purposes to decide and to do it. Unless the patient requested to do it maybe I should do but it is my conscience forever. I can't say the exact things to do because it is so hard even the patient requested. Unless that is my enemys request I will.

First concern is that, How can you decide wether to pull the plug or not when you are in a comatose? Is is that your closest relatives or your family will make that decision? Even though my body is fighting to live the chances or possibilty of waking up is questionable. If only I could kill myself when I'm in that state then I'd probably do it, so that I won't prolong the sorrow and the burden that my family is carrying.

If a friend of mine is in that state, It would be hard decision to make not only that I would be so sad for the family of my friend but also the fact that a person closest to me is fighting for his/her life. But If I were to decide, I'll put into consideration all the factors before the I make the decision. If the family is can cater the expenses then I'll choose not to pull the plug and wait for a miracle but if the family is already in debt and somehow struggling I would choose to pull the plug, without any hesitation even the family disagrees it would be for their own good.

Situational question
Being in a vegetative state or in a comatose state entails a lot of financial, physical and emotional sacrifices for the families of the patient.
Given the fact that someone close to you or you yourself is in a comatose state, will you allow for the "pulling of the plug" or will you fight for your life?

This is a tough case because it's about choosing life and debt. If I see that the person I love is fighting for his life, I would still fight with him. Why do I need to pull the plug if we can still fight cor his life? Regardless of the expences , emotionall and physical sacrifices. Miracle happens anywhere and everywhere if we just believe. It will happen if we just believe.

Our life in this world are given by God, so we must not decide when we die or still alive. We must appreciate everything that God give to us, include our life. God has arrange our life and choose our fate. So, if i get the situation (like above situation), i will choose fight for life. We must face all the problem that God give to us, because God never ever give problem beyond our capacities.
Euthanasia is a sin, we shouldn't kill someone eventhough he/she can face it. The people who do euthanasia is same like a murder.

If my family has no more capability to sustain me in the hospital because of bills, I would rather be happy to unplug that machine that just keep me breathing. At the end of the day, it is still the decision of the family. It is a very difficult situation actually for the family.

Would rather just die and be over it. I mean instead of bleeding money to pay for the bills and if ever i do come out of my comatose or vegetative state, i won't be the same as i was before those state. I know it is a very pragmatic way of thinking about it but emotions aside, this is the best way to go. Being sad about your loved ones dying is natural, but prolonging their suffering so you could be with them longer is just torture

Euthanasia/mercy killing - it is somewhat good for the person who is dying to stop his suffering in living like no use in this world but it is against the will of God because as Christian we believe in saying that "While there is life, there is hope."

I am not against euthanasia. Euthanasia is a mean to stop someone who is suffering. What I am saying is that if you clearly see someone who is suffering and that their suffering would obviously lead into death and there is no hope for them, why prolong it?

Ofcourse I will fight for my life. Life is a gift from God and I believe that only God has the right to take it away. As long as I am breathing I will still find ways to live. As long ad there are people who's supporting me and believes in a miracle that I can still survive , I will still fight for my life. As long as there are people who hope for me to wake and continue with my life, I would still try to survive.

I've always believed that life is worth fighting for no matter what happens but in this topic, its situational. If a person is comatosed, and is physically in pain the longer in goes on, it may be a bettrr option to pull the plug. Especially if the person is not fit anymore to fight for it.

Its a difficult question and the answer will depend on the situation, how many percent that the patient could wake up and recover, do you have the financial support, and will the patient can enjoy its life after recover or the patient will be constantly in pain, when you have the answer then you can know which action to take

I have seen some of my relatives suffering terribly from diseases, such as cancer and diabetes. I have felt that since there is no chance of a recovery, they should be allowed to die rather than being made to cringe from so much pain. Unfortunately, in India euthanasia is illegal. If you assist someone in performing it, then you can be jailed for the rest of your life.

I am pro life and hate the idea of mercy killing. But given the situation, i would agree to resort with euthanasia if, and only is, resources (financially) are drained to prolong the life of the patient. In this case it is not only the patients agony that we are ending also the pain and sufferings of the relatives and loved ones.

I agree with you like so many people - I do not doubt. However, the problem of euthanasia is actually much more difficult to make a legal decision than it seems! As well as suicide!
How can you make a decision without the main participant?
Very many cases, when the situation was influenced not only by relatives, but also by maniacs or simply scammers!
I believe that the decision on euthanasia should be taken by the court in each individual case after the investigation. And such cases should be considered as soon as possible.

It's a very difficult decision. whose decision is it? This is really hard. to come and go between living and dying. If I was sick, maybe I should have pulled the pockets. but my close friend can not take a pin for me. hard for these people. I can not even imagine writing.
but if you really do not have any hope, you should take a plug!

It is the most awful decision that can be only done. I am sure that each one must use ALL of his chances to survive, even the slightest ones.

I work in the ER. every day I get to see people suffer and sometimes die.  I can tell you, from watching more people die than I can  remember, choose a comfortable passing. choose it on your own terms.  Our terms in the hospital are brutal.  we do everything if you want us to, we are obligated to.  When we do everything, we breath for you, we maintain your heartbeat, your blood pressure, temperature, respiratory rate and sedate you.  this would be the rest of your life until your body cannot function anymore

If I have lots of money I will my best to extend the life of my loveones.

Up to a certain point, that can be done. But I have seen a lot of rich people dying in their 20s and 30s, as a result of drug overdose (examples are Peaches Geldof, Heath Ledger, and Lil Peep) or disease (Andy Gibb,Hank Williams.etc) or even from violence (Kurt Cobain, Anton Yelchin, John Lennon, Sam Cooke.etc). Sometimes even accidents can be the villain (Buddy Holly, Paul Walker.etc). What you can do in such cases?

Because there will always be what ifs on the part of the family who is still hoping that their loveones become well again.  But if the family has no means to support the life system of the patient then maybe euthanasia is a solution.  If I will be the patient I will prefer to be killed because I do not want my family to suffer debts.

I read what people write here at the forum, I understood that opinions were divided fifty to fifty. Some support euthanasia, some against. Personally, I do not see anything wrong with this. Everyone has the right to decide how to be.

Situational question
Being in a vegetative state or in a comatose state entails a lot of financial, physical and emotional sacrifices for the families of the patient.
Given the fact that someone close to you or you yourself is in a comatose state, will you allow for the "pulling of the plug" or will you fight for your life?
Euthanasia is somewhat called "mercy killing", I totally disagree with that, I think If that happens I would rather fight for that life and just wait for the right time to come

With the title "Living to fight or fight for life?"
Keywords to answer well already exist in the question itself ... Because if dibalik2 then the meaning and purpose is also different.
The basic is ....
Life for what?
Your life for what? For who? What do you want? What are you looking for?
Undoubtedly will be answered from TS question. There are actions and reactions.
Want to know how to answer it? Simple too.
Just imagine for a moment by forgetting the surroundings that help you to stay alive. Forget the whereabouts of parents, sodara, cousins ​​etc. Assume you are alone. So? When you wake up in the morning, what's in your mind?
Eat what yah? What is it? If not then how well? How can I eat well? Then pay for electricity, water, rent / rent how well?
Or...
What do I want to do for today? The purpose of my life is .... (the content itself) so that today I will do .... (answered myself as well) and still have the above questions before?
Hopefully light up TS well, warm regards.

It's a very difficult decision. whose decision is it? This is really hard. to come and go between living and dying. If I was sick, maybe I should have pulled the pockets. but my close friend can not take a pin for me. hard for these people. I can not even imagine writing.
but if you really do not have any hope, you should take a plug!
Pulling the plug is like a sign of disbelief on what will potentially happen. If this will happen to me, I would rather say to them to oull the plug, I dont want them to suffer for the medical bills that it may incurr.

If you have the financial freedom to support the treatment of a comatose person then I don't see why not?

and on another note, if you lack money for the treatment, I think the patient himself/herself knows this if he/she was alive.

But still, if you love a person enough you'll try hard.

Trying hard doesn't guarantee you'll get what you want though,

It's a matter of how much you are willing to sacrifice for the person you love.

I disagree with euthanasia. according to me, Alternative treatments are available, such as palliative care and hospices. We do not have to kill the patient to kill the symptoms.  Nearly all pain can be relieved.

This is a million dollar question and you sincerely got me thinking. But frankly i ve learnt to knew words from your post and i am really grateful. Sometimes the situation looks hopeful, or the family knows the person they dealing with. There are real fighters and if the family wonna hold on then i trust its in it right position

I will accept the thing you accurately called "pulling of the plug". There is some situations when it's a best choice. At least half of comatose patients are staying alive only cause of their relatives's will, just because their relatives hiding in the cold shadow of illusion their lover/father/mother/son etc. are still alive. If there is no chance to survive in other way it's a crime to force people living like a "vegetable" state. Shame on you, people !
But if there is a chance, even the smallest one, that the patient can survive, can move back to normal state, then you shouldn't stop trying and believing. But only in that case.

If the family could still finance the situation, why not.

I myself, if I am in that condition, or before that happen, I will prepare my family, I would tell them that if I reach that point, they should pull the plug. I will be useless and they will be wasting a lot of money on me, not to mention the burden that I will give them once I get out of the hospital.

It is hard to decide when you are the family member and not the patient itself. We can't deny the fact that we are expecting something will happen or the patient might be well after a while.

Personally, I doubt if i will or recommend someone close to me to get involved in that. Neither will i commit money for such excersize which i deem as vain.  The solution to mans problem lies in God and not all that

I ca only imagine the pain and long suffering of some. I can tell you for free, I will not suffer long in the last days of my life on earth. I will either end it myself or someone will do it for me, hopefully
This is tragic. This is suicide isnt it? I will fight for my life and for the life of my l8ved ones. Who knows a miracle might happen when ypu least expect it. Never mind the finances as long as there is a God, then there is hope.
What to do when there's no hope for salvation and for a miracle? Not everyone is able to fight for his life until the end, knowing that the chances of survival is zero.

I actually think that it is a case to case basis. I am all up for fighting to live especially that the person is in a coma. however we must also understand that for some cases it is inevitable and that must worth or mean something. Or if not it would just make the hurden heavier

Euthanasia is okay if the person who is ill decided to have it but if only the family decided it, I think it is quite different. There is a big difference between the will and the forced killed. Yes, it may be difficult or painful for us to see them suffered but if they don't want to die by force you should also respect them because it is their life after all. We have no right to take away that little hope from them to live more.

There is a big difference in being comatose or vegatative - in the first case you may awake, in the second not - provided that the electrical activity in your brain has ceased. In this case euthanasia is OK.

Euthanasia isn't about relatives, it's about the patient. I do believe that if there is a serious illness that makes living impossibly tough, the plug can be "pulled". However, that's mainly about physical constituency. Mental breakdown isn't yet enough. So the patient had better make sure he's made up his mind based on irreversible facts.

it is quite obvious that if someone doesn't want to live, shouldn't be forced. Who knows why there are laws in some countries against this. Perhaps medical centers "donate" (bribe) politicians so they can rip people off more. In countries with direct democracy like Switzerland, I believe is legal for a reason. It is quite an obvious thing.

It is a bit tricky when people can't express their wish to live or not. Then I believe should be the right of whomever finances their life to decide whether they should continue or not supporting them, which is also tricky if the money is shared like when it is your families money that you have ownership as well.

I personally would probably want to wait for some time to be sure that I won't recover. It isn't that rare that doctors are wrong, medicine is complicated.

Depends... If I'm going to be blind, deaf, dumb and lose my arms & legs, I don't want to live anymore. I'd be completely disabled for the rest of my life, so I'd figure I'd end it as quickly as possible.
Though, if it's a comatose state one can get out of relatively unharmed, I'd not pull the plug. Why? It's a short, temporary state of being, not a long-term/permanent one.

Anyways, if I'm not able to commit suicide anymore for the rest of my life, I'll just end it ASAP. Euthanasia is OK in my opinion.

If ever this happens to me. I would definitely pick pulling the plug than watch my loved ones suffer over me. I am technically living even with the assistance of machines to make me breath and beat my heart, endless tubes to feed me and dispose of my waste. But the quality as yo which I'm living is a far cry from that state. You could certainly describe a vegetable as a living corpse. If ever this happens to me, then i will gladly tell my loved ones to just pull the plug on me

I'm not against euthanasia. Some people, seriously ill, dream to die as soon as possible, so as not to torment themselves and their relatives. I do not understand why it is banned in many countries of the world?
