晚期癌癥病人請求安樂死。我們怎么辦
Mercy killing is one of the most controversial issues in the world of medicine. As the picture given above depicts, a late-stage cancer patient is terminally-ill, asking the doctors for mercy killing. But the doctors look deeply embarrassed, feeling helpless because they are at a loss what to do about it.
The picture really sets me thinking. It implies that people differ in their attitudes towards the mercy killing. Some people think that physician-assisted suicide can relieve dying patients of unbearable pain
and suffering. They maintain that as long as a doctor prescribes a drug for a legitimate medical purpose, he has done nothing illegal even if the patient uses the drug to hasten death. Others are strongly opposed to physician-assisted suicide. They contend that a doctor has no right to give a patient sufficient medication to control his pain if that may hasten death. They conclude that it is illegal for doctors to help the dying end their lives.
As far as I’m concerned, doctors have a duty to help dying patients to alleviate their pain and suffering. I also agree that doctors deserve to be punished if they prolong the needless suffering of their
terminally-ill patients. In short, I am in favor of mercy killing. (207 words)
譯文：
安樂死是醫(yī)學(xué)界最有爭議的問題之一。正如上面所示的畫所描繪的，一位晚期癌癥病人病入膏肓，請求醫(yī)生們實(shí)施安樂死。但醫(yī)生們看上去十分尷尬，感到無能為力，因?yàn)樗麄儾恢涝撛趺崔k。
這幅畫確實(shí)發(fā)人深省。它暗示，人們在對待安樂死上看法不一致。有些人認(rèn)為，醫(yī)助自殺可以減輕垂死病人不堪忍受的痛苦。他們主張，只要醫(yī)生開藥是為了合法的醫(yī)療目的，那么即使病人使用這種藥物加速了死亡，醫(yī)生也沒有做什么違法的事。其他人則強(qiáng)烈反對醫(yī)助自殺。他們堅(jiān)持認(rèn)為，醫(yī)生無權(quán)給病人開足以控制痛苦的藥物，如果那樣做會(huì)加速死亡的話。他們的'結(jié)論是，醫(yī)生幫助垂危病人結(jié)束生命是違法的。
依我看，醫(yī)生有義務(wù)幫助垂死病人緩解病痛。我還認(rèn)為，如果醫(yī)生延長了垂死病人不必要的痛苦的話，那他們應(yīng)該受到懲處。總之，我贊成安樂死。
