>> to significantly recover

These are the words I fear most. Whether the patient will "recover" is rapidly becoming the benchmark for euthanasia. Already, supposed chances of recovery are routinely used to argue for killing the patient. The presstitutes picked right up on it.

Nobody has a crystal ball. Nobody truly knows if a patient will get better or how much better. The decision to kill will be made in the dark. If poor prognosis is the standard for snuffing patients, there may be no more medical miracles in the future. Patients will be in the crematorium before God can hear anyone's prayers. Among them will be many who would have recovered, and all of them will have been denied their right to live.

Me too. Why should "they" decide who should live and who should die.

I NEVER thought I would see anything like this in my country.
