Thank you!! OMG.. I have been thinking of you.. I have decreased my animal intake drastically thanks to you!

oooh euthanasia.. so controversial and of course, I love that topic, and feel pretty much the same, if someone wants to go let them go, and that truly is the person's choice. Especially if they are suffering..If I was in that position, I would choose euthanasia. I already know.

When you put someone on hospice it is not called euthanasia, but we give medications to “make them comfortable”.. but when you give someone morphine which is always used, it decreases respirations which slowly helps them die. So it is very similar, even tho most will not agree, or maybe they will. It also could be a reason some are very opposed to hospice… it’s so interesting.

I should explore this topic more, I don’t know it as well, I do know there are places around the world that do it and some that it is illegal. I remember when I was a kid and hearing about Dr. Kavorkian. Even as a teenager, I always thought if I was suffering and wanted to die, I would go to him.
