"Why is that necessarily fiction?"

<<"You have to understand these people were going to die anyway.">>

We are all "going to die" I was called to my mothers bedside by the hospital staff and told she "was going to die" and she lived for two more years. Killing people for convenience because "You have to understand these people were going to die anyway." is a dangerous precedent to set. Dr's are supposed to heal people and if they can't, then make them comfortable. Otherwise you will have what's happening in the Netherlands and there will be no stopping it. The "right" to die becomes the "duty". The disabled understand this more than you or I but we might be next.
