Euthanasia: of extrication or immorality?

It's requently reported that a mother asked for euthanatizing her son with brain paralysis so that both of them could extricate from the torture triggered by the incurable illness. I sympathize with the whole of what's happening to the mother and the son but I am concerned a lot more about the controversial issue, EUTHANASIA.

Rregardless of a cluster of discussions about euthanasia in light of morality, emotion or policy, can anyone imagine that somewhere out there has circumstances that one's life is exterminated for s/he is perceived as living an intolerable life, in a painless or minimally painful way either by lethal injection, drug overdose, or by the withdrawal of life support? Brain dead patients are often euthanatized under the request of their family. But the question is aroused that the life belongs to its life owner (i.e. the patients) and the decision of whether they wants to get over their life can and should only be made by themselves. Although the patients are unable to make any decision due to their being ill, nobody is given the authority to decide for them!

Some social groups are seeking ways to legalizing acts such as the Rights of the Terminally Ill Act, passed by Australia's Northern Territory in 1995, and nullified in 1997 by the federal Parliament while other organizations of human rights strongly oppose against it. Probably it's no longer of importance to discuss about whether or not one government should legitimatize any euthanasia act, instead we, as members of the globalized society, had better introspect and think about if we can substantially provide extra and extensive support to those minorities. This is exactly what they need. Think about it!

Last but not least, keep in mind that more cares, less calamity!
