What is Euthanasia?
Euthanasia is the deliberate and intentional killing of a human being by a direct action, such as a lethal injection, or by the failure to perform even the most basic medical care such as the provision of nutrition and hydration, necessary to maintain life.
Euthanasia is not.....
the ceasing of medical treatment which is unwanted, or is imposing excessive burdens on the patient, or is incapable of providing any benefit, or the use of drugs in doses sufficient to relieve very severe pain. The use of pain relieving drugs is limited only by the side effects produced by those drugs. Such drugs rarely endanger life unless used deliberately in extremely high doses to those unaccustomed to receiving those drugs. Medical actions intended to relieve suffering are ethical and lawful, as are the withdrawal of treatments which are only unnecessarily prolonging dying. Though the patient may later die of his terminal illness and though such death was foreseen, death was not intended by what was done. To describe these practices as euthanasia is misleading. Good medical practice is NOT active killing.
