Since euthanasia was legalized in 2016 there have been a reported 76,475 instances of euthanasia or assisted suicide in the country.
While many may believe that chronic pain is the primary reason for a request for euthanasia, that is not the case.
The primary factors cited by those who requested euthanasia were a loss of independence, perceiving themselves as a burden on their family, friends, or caregivers, and emotional distress.
Individuals who need love, care, and compassion are instead being treated like animals. Euthanasia and assisted suicide are a terrible injustice and violation of the sanctity of life.
