An oral presentation arguing for the legalisation of euthaniasia

You're living a life of pain, suffering and anguish. You're flat on your back, on a stone cold bed - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You have no control over your body. You cannot see, hear or speak to your loved ones. You're dieing. Your inner workings of your body are slowly but constantly diminishing and there is no cure for your disease. Even at the best of times, life is a titanic struggle. …

…a life of pain, of suffering and of anguish. As Martin Luther King once said "I am not sure I would have wanted my children to live a life of torment and abuse, so I dared to stop it." Let's not force our children to endure this same suffering if they are terminally ill without a cure, let's give them the chance for peace and happiness, let's give our children a choice. I dare you!
