I don’t see what your issue is with the post you replied to. You seem to be advocating for euthanasia.

Nope. Wrong. If someone is terminal and they don’t want any more medical care except pain management, if that’s what THEY want, I don’t have a problem with it, because that’s allowing the death process to occur without abnormal intervention to prolong the dying process. If they want food and water they should have whatever they want until they get to the point they don’t want food and water anymore. And the bodies of dying people do get to a point in the shutdown process where they don’t want food and water anymore.

And my issue with the guy I replied to is this: don’t advocate for euthanasia for non-terminal people. The woman in this story was not terminal. This is not the example to convince people to treat people like animals that are dying and are euthanized to be spared further pain when things are futile. Non-terminal people are not in a futile, dying state. They many not feel good or they may be bored but that’s not dying from a terminal, no hope illness.
