Myth Interview

Do you believe in euthanasia?
Person #1: Yes
Person #2: Yes
Person #3: Yes
Why?
Person #1: because I think the most difficult thing is to watch a person you love dearly in pain because of an incurable disease. We do not allow our pets to suffer unnecessarily. And I don’t believe humans should go through that. Its degrading for humans to have to lose their senses its humiliating. And some people beg to be put to death and I think in that case doctors should be able to help.
Person #2: I believe in euthanasia to end the life of a person with a terminal illness when there is absolutely nothing else medically they can do for them.
Person #3: Somebody’s sick and theres nothing you can do to help them until they die put them out of their misery so they don’t have to suffer. People with certain kinds of cancer are in a lot of pain and why make them go through that if they don’t want to.

What is your definition of euthanasia?
Person #1: Putting a person to death to end their suffering from an incurable disease if the person requests.
Person #2: To end the suffering of a person by putting them to death in a humane way.
Person #3: Assisting individuals on their death bed to pass without pain.

How do you think the doctors end their patient’s lives?
Person #1: There is a drug that is injected that stops your heart.
Person #2: By an injection of medication that will stop the heart.
Person #3: The doctors give them an overdose of drugs which will kill them.
