Imagine your mother is diagnosed with cancer. She lies in a hospital bed all day.
unable to communicate with the world. The medication to stop her pain is not strong enough. .

opposite side of this argument of this who believe that we are in control of our own bodies and .
we have the right to do with them as we please. An example of this is the abortion law. Women .
felt that their bodies are theirs and if the technology was available they should be able to abort .

EUTHANASIA, THE ETHICAL DEBATE People have addressed the ethical dilemma of euthanasia and assisted suicide since the beginnings of recorded history. Since then and to this day there has been no easy answer to the ethical question as to whether it is right or wrong.
