Euthanasia Should Approve In This World

Introduction

Euthanasia is derived from a Greek word 'euthanatos' which means 'easy death' (BBC Ethics Guide, 2012). In simple ways it is the way to choose death to get relieve from the pain and sufferings of a disease which is prolonged and cannot be cured. This is the main reason which raises various social, moral and ethical issues in whether Euthanasia or mercy killing should be allowed or not.

Even the doctors, physician and other professional health care providers who attend them, can understand their pain, torture and sufferings.
