Should the Practice of Mercy Killing be Permitted?
Much as the medical science has advanced today, there still exist some diseases that cannot be cured, the most notorious of which are leukaemia , cancer and aids. Patients who have long been tortured by one of such diseases both physically and mentally usually become all skin and bones in the end. Knowing that their days are numbered no matter how hard the doctors try and how much more money their families will spend on their treatments, they tend to lose the courage to live on. To them, life no longer brings them anything except more pain and fear. They simply want to die.
Should the practice of mercy killing be permitted if such a patient is desperate for it? My answer is in the affirmative provided that .
Provided that there is not the least hope of bringing them back to health, and the patient begs for mercy killing and his or her family members accept it. If the above conditions are met, and if more days in this otherwise beautiful world mean merely more sufferings and nightmares to the dying, I see no reason why mercy killing should not be permitted as one last resort to relieving them from the unbearable trials.
