Should doctors be allowed to help critically ill patients commit suicide?



Fill in the blanks with the appropriate focus word and/or its word form.

The word euthanasia was coined in the 17th century by Francis Bacon who defined it as “an easy, painless, and happy death.” Today, it refers to when a doctor 1) emphasis to help a critically ill patient commit suicide by injecting him or her with a drug that causes death; critically ill means that they have a disease or illness which will result in death.

Supporters of doctors who assist critically ill patients to die say that people have the right to end their lives in a painless and dignified way. One could say that a person’s right “to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” includes the right to decide to free oneself from a painful disease or illness. Doctors who support euthanasia 2) consent that the 3) criteria for 4) emphasis to help a patient die is that the patient is suffering from a terminal illness, has a poor quality of life, and has made a conscious decision to end his/her life.

Critics of euthanasia say that doctors take an oath to protect patients. Assisting them to end their lives goes against that promise. Opponents also 5) consent
the possibility of doctors taking this too far by helping the poor and disabled end their lives. Religious critics say that doctor-assisted suicide goes against God’s will. Others fear that a patient's age and inability to pay medical bills may be used as 6) emphasis to determine who lives and who dies.

As of 2011, the Supreme Court has ruled against euthanasia, but many patients are still asking doctors for assistance.

Week 10 Definitions and Critical Reading Passage

difintions!!!

consent - Permission for something to happen or agreement to do something.

criteria - A principle or standard by which something may be judged or decided.

emphasis - Importance, value, or prominence given to something.
Stress laid on a word or words to indicate special meaning or particular importance.

Do you think that euthanasia should be an individual right or should it be determined by the courts? Is there a chance that physician-assisted suicide could go too far?

i think that euthanasia or assisted suicide is needed so patients won’t be forced to remain alive by being connected to machines. But the law already permits patients or their surrogates to withhold or withdraw unwanted medical treatment even if that increases the likelihood that the patient will die. i also think that Neither the law nor medical ethics requires that “everything be done”! to keep a person alive!. Insistence, against the patients wishes,! that dearth be postponed by every means available is contrary to law and practice. It is also cruel and inhumane.!!
