Why do we believe it is kind and the 'right thing to do' to euthanize our beloved pets when they are sick, in pain and there is no hope left for recovery, but not our family members? Does God or anyone really want us to keep someone with bone cancer doped up on morphine so they don't feel the pain each time one of their bones break when they shift slightly in their bed? I think we should respect people's wishes, but there should be a lot of controls and safeguards.
