Euthanasia

no...it is not legal and i dont think there is any cases in malaysia concerning euthanasia. i have went through the database.

Euthenasia is administered to those who are still living and, for whatever reason, wish to die. DNR orders affect only those whose own life fails due to natural causes and who do not wish to be brought back to life.

Euthanasia and assisted suicide raise significant legal issues, including the potential for violations of laws regarding homicide and consent, as well as the need for clear regulatory frameworks to ensure patient autonomy and safeguard against coercion. Ethically, these practices challenge principles such as the sanctity of life, the role of medical professionals, and the moral implications of ending life intentionally. Additionally, they invoke deep societal debates about suffering, dignity, and the right to choose one's end-of-life circumstances. Balancing these legal and ethical dimensions remains a complex and contentious issue in many jurisdictions.

Dr. Jack Kevorkian, often referred to as "Dr. Death," is the most well-known practitioner of voluntary active euthanasia. He gained notoriety in the 1990s for assisting terminally ill patients in ending their lives through physician-assisted suicide, claiming to honor their right to choose. His actions sparked widespread debate and led to legal challenges surrounding euthanasia and assisted suicide in the United States. Kevorkian's practices ultimately resulted in his conviction for second-degree murder in 1999.

Active,passive,voluntary,involuntary,non-voluntary

people might abuse it they could kill a person using euthanasia

making euthanasia illegal only puts the price of a human life higher, human life is no better than any other life

ok so humans can imagine, dogs dream so they have a partial level or sentience

human life is not a prized possesion it never has been

the amount of death in war should show you that by now

god read the bible or summit, get your head strait

It´s illegal here.

there are not any religions that enflight on euthanasia being legal

An opinion towards euthanasia cannot be generalized across any one society. The religion and values of some individuals make it so that prolonging of life through artificial means is frowned upon(assisted breathing/blood pumping devices), and as a result these individuals would prefer the use of euthanasia rather than see loved ones in pain and dying slowly, their lifespan increased through medical advancements. However, many people view euthanasia as equivalent to murder, as it involves a third party making the decision to end a life, no matter if the intention is only to end pain. Ultimately, if one holds that human life is sacred, then euthanasia is a gross infringement upon the right of an individual to live, no matter what the circumstance.

It's usually done by administering a massive dose of injected anaesthetic. the dog feels nothing, and simply 'goes to sleep' - hence the term 'putting a dog to sleep'.

You don't, or at least: you can't get it easily, as people who do not live in The Netherlands sometimes seem to think.

Under very, very specific circumstances, you can ask your doctor for euthanasia. Your doctor has to confirm you are completely sane and that you 'suffer unbearably'. For example: you have got cancer in a terminal phase and you suffer from enormous pains. Two other doctors, who do not know your doctor or you, will have to see you and conclude the same - independently. And they all have to file a report. Only then, your doctor won't be prosecuted if he performs euthanasia.

Here I am assuming that the definition of euthanasia we're using is the assisted suicide of a terminal patient who's aware enough to make a decision. Think about it. These people are in pain. They feel as if they're a burden. They've said their goodbyes. And they're ready to die. It's cruel to keep these people in the world. Why should we force them and their family to suffer? Often, these people become a burden to their family, both financially and emotionally. If the patient doesn't mind, then the family is able to keep their spirits up. But if the patient is depressed from the pain and the state of their deterioration, it saps the happiness from everyone involved. It would be better, in the latter case, that the patient be allowed to pass on, so the family could have time for closure rather than their family member drifting off in the midle of the night, without them having a real chance to say goodbye. It's taxing to live for months as if every day might be your last. Long live the right to die. That is the problem. Terminal patients DON'T have to be in pain, they SHOULDN'T feel like a burden. We aren't forcing them to suffer, we aren't forcing them to live. When my father died of cancer, he chose not to take extensive brain surgery which would have only prolonged his death. That would have been forcing him to suffer. He instead used the selfless care of hospice workers and the anesthetic effects of morphine to help him die with the least pain possible. Imagine, your sixteen-year-old baby sister is going to die in one month of cancer. Your mother or father or even your grandparents are sick and dying. Puts a whole new perspective on it, doesn't it? Its all well and good to offer it to those moaning people in the nursing homes, but when your grandpa is one of those "moaning people", you aren't so sure. Technology helps people die with less pain than ever before, and yet we're concerned with intolerable pain? Imagine, having your little sister killed just like a dog at the vet's clinic. Not only that, but there are so many ways to pressure these vulnerable people into accepting euthanization. Emotionally, psychologically, even financially. Did you know that euthanization is, effectively, the cheapest form of "medical treatment"? And what happens when you get doctors who aren't doctors at all, or a greedy doctor who needs your mom's liver for a wealthy patient? Also, if the option is there, why would Great-Uncle Dave choose to fight his depression instead of death, even though his little nephews and nieces are just waiting for that next fishing trip? Advocates are already pushing for more than just terminally ill patients to have the ability to kill themselves. Long live... everyone, not just a cause.
