I mentioned I knew a case personally in which a guy was paralysed. IMO, the family was pretty ignorant out there, the guy was in a pretty severe condition and started a treatment, at some point he could talk and that is trully something. From someone who can barely move his eyes, he could mourn one or two things. The family response? They imediatly intrerupted the treatment as they tought "Hey, it's ok from now on, nothing else to do" and the guy regressed and regressed and just become a veggetable in the propper sense. This guy personally didn't ask for euthanasia, but out there are more people like this, who would wish to die and they are artificially kept alive by family members. Those people don't really have the strenght to do it themselves and at some point, they don't even have the strenght to ask someone else to do it for them.
