RE: Quality of Life or Quantity of Life?

in #life6 years ago

Well debated medical dilemma as well.
I think Fear of death and will to live play their parts. Survival is a basic animal instinct.
When a person gives up due to psychological reasons it is not the same as for physical reasons although both parties are having terrible quality of life.
Euthanasia might sound appropriate in physical conditions but never in psychological conditions and is considered as a murder in the latter.
I think it is the hope that drives people to live and battle that they have few more quality moments in their extended life.

I hope this made sense :)

That's very well said @moghul, Survival the basic instinct exist within all of us. That's true hope is something that keeps them going but a hopeless hope is so painful is what I feel all the time.

That’s very true
