A Euthanasia Clinic would provide a place where a Compassionate Law could be implemented allowing people to choose the time, place, and manner of their own death while in the company and companionship of their friends, family, and loved ones.

What's wrong with that?

Life

Life is a path whose destination is known. That destination is death.

Whether we arrive today or tomorrow it is certain that we will arrive.

Life is the way to death.

Since it is inevitable that you will die, why shouldn't you have a peaceful and painless death?

The End of Life Experience

Death is the end of life.

All life leads to an end of life experience.

A reasonable and rational person wants that experience to be as peaceful and painless as possible.

Voluntary euthanasia, a peaceful and painless death, is a rational end of life choice. 

You are not crazy for wanting that.

The Time

Death is not a painful event.

Dying can be.

Hospitals are designed to keep you alive. Physicians have sworn an oath to prolong your life.

Waiting for death to happen in a sterile hospital room is not an appealing end of life experience.

The Place

You are going to die anyway, so make a difference before you go.

You can enrich the lives of others by the choices you make.

Instead of enduring expensive, painful, debilitating and often useless treatment for an incurable medical ailment you can choose to live in a place that needs you.

Choose a place to die and go there to make a difference in the lives of others.

The place you choose for an end of life experience will benefit from your having lived there.

Whether for a few days, months, or years you can make a difference to many others before you go, and then choose your own time, place, and manner of a peaceful and painless death.

This is a rational and a compassionate choice. This is what Euthanasia is all about. Choice. 

The Manner

The book, 'Final Exit', by Derek Humphry describes the preferred method for achieving a peaceful and painless death. I recommend it. You may order a copy by using the links below.

Voluntary Euthanasia

According to my edition of the 'Funk and Wagnall's Standard College Dictionary', Euthanasia is defined as a 'painless, peaceful death'.   ERGO, the web site of Derek Humphry the founder of America's Hemlock Society, tells us that, 'The word 'euthanasia' comes from the Greek -- Eu, "good", and Thanatos, "death". Literally, a 'good death'.

Nothing in that requires the assistance or intervention of any other person in your death.  It is only in recent years that the meaning has changed so that physicians are now involved in every discussion. With the use of an inert gas, (Helium, Nitrogen), a peaceful and painless death can be achieved without a physician or pharmacist being involved. And it is legal.

When you decide that the time to end your life has come you can end it in a peaceful and painless manner in the company and companionship of your friends, family and loved ones. You do not need your doctor to be involved.

This is not about what a doctor will allow you. This is about what you will choose for yourself.

Compassion

As more and more people get older, and as they are denied dignified alternative options, many will insist on using all available means to stay alive. Or perhaps they will make no decisions about their own end of life experience and allow attending physicians to make those decisions for them. As a result, more and more people will be sustained on life support mechanisms and decisions will have to be made, without their input or consent, regarding  'pulling the plug'. 

For some this will mean forced starvation over several weeks with attendant palliative care to ensure life is sustained for as long as possible.

Others may have their life sustaining oxygen withheld. Without replacing it with calming Nitrogen or Helium.

These sound like torture. Yet they are condoned while Euthanasia, a peaceful and painless death, is condemned.

Society will argue endlessly over each case while loved ones are left to suffer and pay for the legal and medical bills.

A Compassionate Law and a Euthanasia Clinic could help make those end of life decisions easier by allowing people to choose the time, place, and manner of their own peaceful and painless death.

A Compassionate Law

Those about whom we care the most may be subject to legal prosecution if they choose to be with us when we need them most.

A dying person does not need the additional worry that their manner of death might cause felony charges to be brought against their loved ones.

A Compassionate Law would make it possible for a person to be in close physical contact with the dying at the time of death and not be subject to legal prosecution afterwards.

Here is an image from a referenced web site.

Here is an image from the video, Soylent Green, showing a Euthanasia Clinic of the future.

The first shows a man contemplating the means of his own death, alone. The other shows a man receiving tender care from compassionate individuals at the time of his death. The first may die alone, while the other will never feel abandoned.

Compassionate care and a Euthanasia Clinic.
