Question on Euthanasia

N- painless killing to keep them from suffering, that is the meaning of euthanasia. Overall i have to disagree with this, though there are some things that are exception. One of those exceptions would have to be the terminal state, because the person is hardly alive, and being stuck to a machine unable to do anything is worse than death in my opinion. How ever for those that are more fortunate but still have a bad disease such as really bad cancer, people should not look at death as an easy way out. They should rather enjoy life and what time we have left in the world. Should something happen, i think people should hang on, as sometimes things happen that are not expected, and can make living, if how ever brief, meaningful. If you think about, all death is certain, that might sound morbid, but if you think about it, it is unbinding. to tell yourself i might only have x amount of time, you realize the importance of just one day, you see every thing as special, whether it is just how the sun reflects of a glass, or how the view looks like from an airplane. you are also willing to try to do different things when the chance comes, from crazy food to skydiving. So if you do have something that makes life short, you hit the ground running, you don't stop.
