Assisted suicide is one of the biggest controversial debates in our current life. In order to prevent assisted suicide abused largely, many governments or agencies have prohibited have experiments about human assisted suicide. As far as I am concerned, I disagree with the policy above. It is an inevitable truth that every person has to face and suffer the process of death. That period will be the last and most painful experience in whole life. If we get an incurable disease or we are suffering in the terminally ill condition, we should be able to choose a peaceful way to die.
The most important reason that people have no doubt to realize that assisted suicide can relieve a patient's suffering directly. For example, if a person unfortunately got cancer or AIDS, it is extreme hard to survive with unbearable pain.
Doctors should provide a patient with enough medication to relieve suffering. In addition, generally the elderly persons are easier to suffer increased risk of depression and suicide. Also if a patient has already been in a terminally ill condition without consciousness, doctor should be able to use assisted suicide to make him or her die if patient's family permits. Often a terminally ill, suffering patient may require dosages of pain medication that impair respiration or have other effects that may hasten death. It is natural and reasonable so long as the primary intent is just to relieve suffering and this action is totally upon the patient's request. On the other hand, morphine drips has been already used for pain relief. In fact, it is the other way to be a covert form of assisted death and we can not control it completely. So I think assisted suicide is a justifiable and inevitable way to treat terminally ill people.
Second, using assisted suicide also can ease the burdens of patient's family. Obviously the treatment will cost a great number of money from patient's family, if family does not have sufficient finance and it is valueless to remain patient's life, assisted suicide is a right option.
