Death. We all grapple with it. But some people may want it sooner rather than later, and may seek medical help to usher death in smoother. We call this euthanasia, or assisted suicide. This episode, explore what euthanasia is, how it is administered, its many forms, the people campaigning for and against it, and the ethical considerations to be deliberated when discussing the topic.
