Ethics Program 3
Assisted Suicide & End of Life Care?
"Dying Well " |
Chapters: 15
|
|
..................................................................................................
The mystery of death is one of the
great mysteries of life. As we seek to
understand death, we learn that the
experience is most often filled with
pain, suffering and difficult choices.
Most of all, we come to recognize the
profound meaning of end-of-life care,
how it is practiced, and the moral
concerns it raises. Oregon is the first
state to legalize physician-assisted
suicide. What will we learn about
terminally ill patient's rights regarding
their care and ultimately their death?
And what will we learn from
opponents who believe that assisted
suicide is really a plea for better
end-of-life care?
