I do believe in euthanasia. I might have done the same thing as Ramón. Why shouldn't a person who is tired of living and who is obvioulsy not going anywhere be able to say: that's it for me and put an end to his/her life?
- MAR ADENTRO - The real-life story of Spaniard Ramon Sampedro, who fought a 30 year campaign in favor of euthanasia and his own right to die and to win the right to end his life with dignity. Film explores Ramón's relationships with two women: Julia, a lawyer who supports his cause, and Rosa, a local woman who wants to convince him that life is worth living. Through the gift of his love, these two women are inspired to accomplish things they never previously thought possible. Despite his wish to die, Ramón taught everyone he encountered the meaning, value and preciousness of life. Though he could not move himself, he had an uncanny ability to move others. RAMON WAS A QUADROPELIGEC: He was a sailor that in his twenties was paralyzed from the neck down in an accident at the sea and his life was dedicated to fight with the Spanish government for the right to end his own life. IF YOU WERE IN RAMON'S POSITION WOULD YOU WANT TO END YOUR LIFE? WHY OR WHY NOT? DO YOU BELIEVE IN EUTHANASIA?
If I were in Ramon's position,. I don't think I would want to terminate my life in that way,. becuase my mind is still working even though my body's movements aren't the same,. I can understand that it s difficult for someone who has had the freedom of moving by himself and for what r u saying he likes sealing,. now understand and accept that he no longer can do the things he used to do before the accident,. but I don't think that is a good reason for killing urself,. if there is any reason for that,..
Life is a gift that God gave us,. and he doesn't give it to anyone,. we are privilaged for having that gift,.. and I don't think we have the right to terminate our life that way,. also our family will suffer more not having us,..than at least in that condition have us with them,.
