Health problems

There is bill in the MN house to legalize physician assisted suicide. A terminally ill, mentally capable adult with a prognosis of six months or less to live, the option to request, obtain and take medication — should they choose — to die peacefully in their sleep if their suffering becomes unbearable. This will legalize what has been going on for some years now. A cancer patient declines chemo and goes home where he is connected to a morphine pump to be used at his discretion to relieve pain. The use of morphine to reduce pain requires larger and larger doses to be effective and in short order the patient dies. To most people this seems reasonable but it is one more step down the road that was started with aborting babies with medical problems. Can these two agreements be combined to allow infanticide under certain conditions.
