Question

Only five states currently allow physician-aid-in-dying (PAD). Review your state’s stance on PAD and provide that along with your thoughts on whether or not you agree with your state’s current position. Defend your position regardless of your state’s current regulation.

Answer 1

Terminally ill patients going to survive less than six months can get the aide of a physician in dying.

Oregon is one such state which allow PAD.The current regulations are

Should have attained 18 year of age,Attending physician ,should have described an out terminal illness ,The court has to give a capability ,Consulting physician shoukd have made a diagnosis etc., to approve a PAD and to issue a lethal dose of drug.

This is agreeable because it can give a psychological strength to patient by deciding when and how to end their life.This though can affect the family members intensely and emotionally when they real use the pain which their loved one experiences can make them to help each other and go for a firm decision. .It is justifiable one because everyone has the right to stay fit and healthy and in case of terminal illness need not want to bear the physical and emotional pain rather to make a decision which can help them to end their life peacefully.
