[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's easy to get euthanized in my country, Canada.  We qualify for almost everything including the early stages of Alzheimer's.  The doctors will even warn you when you are getting close to slipping past competence.

I will never go to a care home or piss away a lifetime of savings and hand it to the elder-care-industry.  Even if I had a stroke and couldn't communicate except through eye blinks I would choose it.  They also don't keep us going on life support very long.  They tend to pull the plug fairly soon.  We have half the rate of dialysis as Americans do.

The American fake "life is sacred" is really about the dough-re-mi.  Follow the money, it's always about that.  [/quote]

This is how it should be IMO. I work in healthcare and there is very little quality of life once someone is in the middle stages of Alzheimer's. I will go to Switzerland or end it myself if I have to. It has nothing to do with having an inheritance to pass on to my hypothetical maybe in the future children. It's about saving myself from a cruel fate. [/quote]
