[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 634161, member: 3419"] {{Hugs}} Lucy. Thought provoking topic, and near and dear to our hearts. Most of us have dealt with this issue. It is excruciating to watch a loved one die a painful, drawn-out death. I agree with-Cedar: "We should have the right to choose the time and the manner of our passing. Having said that, I think the question becomes how to avoid having someone else or worse yet, some government entity, making those decisions for us. It is a slippery slope." We are, in general, more humane toward our pets than we are to our families. Then again, who wants to take responsibility? I would if I could be 100% certain that I knew the person's mind and wishes. Not many people I can say that about. [/QUOTE]
