Though the first para in article has great writing, some sentences in second para were out of context. Euthanasia and jumping out from the building are two different things. A doctor helping to euthanasize and an another man assisting someone to die by other means are too different too. While I don't oppose the concept of euthanasia, I strongly oppose suicide of a healthy person (no question of assisting it). you can see about the cases of dogs being euthanasized here. Euthanasia is for those whose illness has no cure and are suffering to a great extent. But I've seen animals like dogs letting to euthanasize just because they got old.
