rishimba, If mercy killing is correct, then all suicides should be legalized as well.
Xena, "DoNot Resuscitate" are situations where if any terminally ill patient collapse. then we doctors will not resuscitate him/her as per their wish which he had expressed when the person was in good state of mind. It is totally different from mercy killing as in DNR cases, we do not assist patient to die.
