Euthanasia is the deliberate advancement of a person's death for the benefit of that person. In most cases euthanasia is carried out because the person asks to die, but there are cases where a person can't make such a request.
A person who undergoes euthanasia is usually terminally ill.Euthanasia can be carried out either by doing something, such as administering a lethal injection, or by not doing something necessary to keep the person alive (for example failing to keep their feeding tube going).
I studied about euthanasia ethical problems. Is that an ethical action? Has a patient a right to commit suicide in place of euthanasia by other persons?Who can decide about euthanasia for close to death patients?
