their love for each other really embodies the marriage vows

"from this day, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish...."

hope they both can recover or health improves

that why i support euthanasia
Euthanasia is the extreme.

To start with they should stop filming these type of programs.

Because it is implying that those who do not choose what these people do are "not good" or as you say "not as brave".

Everyone is different. Just let people be.

If can get to the stage accept everyone choice and decision they make for themselves then can maybe start to talk about medical assistance in dying.

Even the term euthanasia should never be brought up because that one is technically someone else deciding for the living thing to die. Not the living thing itself.

What you disagree with then? I said is up to the patient to decide what is best for them not anyone else.

What person? What is "not just agree the GG"?

Is for the patient requesting for medical assistance in dying to decide for themselves.

But you also need the laws to allow the ones helping the person die not be charged with homicide.

SG culture deeply religious.
Religion don't value individual choice in what they choose to do in life.
Religion tell you how you should live.

That's the problem. Deeply religious societies don't have individual choice as much.

Historically they used religion as the "law" to control people. Bring order. Peace. Cos back then legal system not so strong. Don't even have cos is emperor.

How to control to emperor dictator? He is the law. So talk about an even higher being. Invoke fear and reward in afterlife.

Religion is likely man made and a scam.

Is important. Don't underestimate the importance of words

You use word suicide is bad. No one will agree to allowing suicide. Euthanasia is what vets do to pets. Again say euthanasia for your family member is like saying treat them like dog. Again not good.

Medical is ok (although lately some people don't like the word medicine think of pharmaceutical etc). Assistance is sure ok. Dying is what happens to all of us anyway.
Got difference bro. If you truly want to get this accepted need to avoid the bad words that invoke negative emotions.

The Chinese term also can. An le si

Peace and tranquil death.

Don't use AS or E bro.

Assisted death better.

Medical assisted dying
Compassionate assisted dying

You work at hospital?
Usually people who see this a lot know and understand the suffering.
Average people don't see at all . They might see their loved ones. Maybe parents. Spouse. That's at most 3. And how many families are big these days? Can't be more than handful.
Which is why people don't know and don't understand. They have no experience with seeing suffering.
Plus the religion part tells them no.

I know what you mean. What I say to those who say no is this. What harm does it do to YOU if we allow those who want compassionate assistance in dying for THEM?

If you don't want then sure don't. Nothing is saying if someone else is allowed that you MUST also do it.

Other people die with compassionate assistance what harm comes to you?

SGrean like to say you dei your business.

But then when it comes to people want to dei with compassionate assistance then becomes everybody business and say no you cannot.

Why so busybody?

It's the religion right? Cos if don't stop then your religion says you guilty of sin also by not stopping it. Is like those who are told if they don't evangelise they are also guilty and will be unfavored etc.

Bro I still think is the religion problem. SG is multi religious country but is not totally secular. They go with the common themes of various religions.

Totally true.
I think all kids should spend 2 week at hospital. 1 week at A&E. 1 week in the wards. Mandatory volunteer oxymoron. But it allows layman go understand the chaos at hospital. So they know how tough it is and is not anyone fault. Just is part of how terrible life is. Is like war literally.

Yes let people decide for themselves. Who are we to decide for them?

How we choose to live should be same independent choice as how much suffering we want to ensure and how we wish to die.
