What I don't understand is that mankind thinks it's ok to treat an animal like crap while they are alive (buy a dog and jam it way it out in the back yard & never play w/it but as long as it has food,water & shelter - that's acceptable) but you better not do that to a person. Yet when an animal is old or sick and suffering, it's "cruel" not to put it to sleep however THAT is when it's ok to let a human suffer. Makes no sense to me. :( (hope that came out right)
You're right of course. Animals have no voice and we treat them (if we are animal lovers) as humanly as possible, yet humans DO have a voice and we allow them to suffer reguardless of their wishes to end their own life.
I am not an advocate of suicide, but I do understand that there is a point in some people's lives when thier illness will not go away, when pain is too much, when quality of life is gone.
Then I believe we should listen, and honor a persons wishes should this be an option they choose.
