Why euthanasia is partially blind to love

Scottish Catholic Observer ^ | 3/27/1 | Fr. Ronald Rolheiser

From that person’s helplessness and pain emanates a power to draw us together as family, a power to intuit and understand deeper things, a deeper appreciation of life, and especially a much deeper recognition of that person’s life and spirit. And this, impalpable gift, as Maritain says, emanates from the mystery of pain, non-utility, and dying in which he or she is enclosed.

That is so true. But more and more don’t have family members to be with them as they die.
