Complying with Euthanasia

   To me, euthanasia is just another form of mercy killing. There are so many diseases known to mankind that are untreatable. The only way out is death. People who suffer with these diseases or sicknesses like ALS and all sorts of cancers have to suffer for months and sometimes even years. This is pure torture. Shouldn't we end our lives as happy as we can be? Shouldn't we die without pain or agony? Why are we torturing the people we love most? If a person wants to go, why force them to suffer until they can't live any longer? Let them go if and when they please. 
    Think of it like this; household pets are put to sleep when they are too sick or too old, as owners, we don't want our pets to be in pain throughout the rest of their lives. It may be difficult but it's for the best. Animals don't have the choice whether they'd like to be killed or not. As humans, we can say whether we want to make this decision or not. We should have the right to go when we please. 
    In my opinion, doctors should be licensed to do the same thing to humans as they do to animals. Euthanasia should definitely be considered by law because really, who wants to live their last breaths in pain?
