Assisted Suicide

In the world, is there anybody who never gets ill? Is there anybody who can get over all the diseases? For these questions, I can say surly that there is nobody can do that, but if there are some people who cannot suffer the pains from disease, what can they do, choose to die? Should they do that? Could they do that? God creates human beings and gives them right to live; however, did god give them right to end their lives? Nowadays, there is a problem that whether assisted suicide should be legal catches and holds our concern. What is assisted suicide? It is helping a person to end his or her life by request in order to end suffering. Recently, there are so many views about assisted suicide; somebody thinks that it should be legal and somebody not; but in my opinion, assisted suicide should not be legal, and I will talk about both opponents and agreement in this essay.

The first opponent that assisted suicide should be legal is that some patients cannot suffer from the diseases, and dead can release them from those sufferings. In fact, these phenomena are not rare. For instance, I lived with grandparents when I was child, and there was a kind old lady called Mrs. Wang who lived beside my house; in my memory, she always smiled when I saw her. After I graduated from primary school, I went to live with my parents; however, just in these few years, I found Mrs. Wang changed when I came back. She became wan and thin, and sometimes groaned; when I asked why, my grandfather told me that she had got a serious gastric disease. Everybody knows that it’s not a good feeling when people get gastric diseases, as Mrs. Wang is an old lady, this is surly terrible for her; thus, if assisted suicide become legal, the doctor can help her to end her life by request and it may be a good thing for her to reduce these sufferings. However, the doctor’s belief is not reducing people’s suffering by end their lives; it should be curing the disease. It is well known that doctor is the angel in the world, but if assisted suicide become legal, their original belief will change. Nowadays, people go to hospital because the doctors will try their best to cure their patient, no matter how serious the ill is, no matter how hard the work is. In order to solve some difficult problem, lots of doctors and scientists work hard to find new method and new technologies. However, after assisted suicide become legal, the things may get easier; when patient suffers a lot from a disease and the doctor find it hard to cure, the doctor can just help patient to assisted suicide; though the doctor may reduce the pain of patient by this way, can we still call them angel? Of course not; therefore, assisted suicide should not be legal.
