ending a life to relieve pain and suffering of a person who is beyond the point of recovery (Quill 8). A form of euthanasia, known as Physician-assisted suicide (PAS) is when a physician provides information and or medication to help the patient end their own life (Lachman 1). A patient should have the right to control the circumstances of their own death and determine how much pain and suffering is enough (Quill 7). In the Bill of Rights of patients, it is a person’s right to be treated for…

“Death and Dignity: A Case of Individualized Decision Making” by Dr. Timothy Quill is an account about the death of one of his patients, a woman named Diane. Diane had struggled with depression and alcoholism, and earlier in life, cancer: now in a better position in life, she was struck with the news that she had acute myelomonocytic leukemia.

Often confused with death with dignity, is physician assisted death, once referred to as physician assisted suicide. Quill and Greenlaw (2008), pertaining to death with dignity, state, “The practice of a physician providing the means for a patient to end his/her own life, usually with a prescription for barbiturates that the patient takes himself; sometimes also called physician-assisted suicide.” Today, death with dignity is seen as way for those that are suffering to escape the disease and…

weighted total of 1.75, which means that it has the lowest overall ranking. It ranked last in adequacy because the current public policy surrounding sales tax applied to online purchases is still primarily based off the 1992 Supreme court hearing of Quill v. North Dakota. This is surprising given the reality that the internet has evolved tremendously since this court ruling. For example, most Americans did not have internet in the homes in the early 1990s and if they did it was a slow dial-up…

In 1997 each state was granted, by the Supreme Court, the right to choose whether or not to legalize physician assisted suicide (Schencker). Even after multiple years only a small number of states have legalized physician assisted suicide. “My hope for every patient I encounter: they will be able to die with dignity, with…

A great class pet for 1st graders must be relatively small, somewhat quiet, able to live by itself on the weekends, and cannot be venomous or aggressive. With that in mind, I think that a chinchilla, hedgehog, or hamster would all make great class pets.

Also they don’t require constant care, so you could leave them at school on the weekends as long as…
